Landmarks

Landmarks is Stephen, Andrew, Matt, Drew and Kevin a psychedelic rock band from Chicago in the USA.

Battle Of You

Battle Of You an alt- indie band from London in England is Mel (Vocals / Guitar), Nic (Keys / Vocals), Tom (Bass),  Killian (Guitar) and HP (Drums).

The Badenvilles

The Badenvilles is Gordie (Guitars / Vocals), Jem (Guitars), Nico (Bass) and Ben (Drums) an alternative rock band from Hobart in Tasmania.

Face The King – The Sound – EP review

It was almost a year ago that I first introduced Face The King and they have just released a new four track EP – The Sound – ahead of their forthcoming LP. Opening with You, Me & The Sound there is an immediate sense of urgency that rolls out of the speakers as Face The King […]
