Reviews / Album

What makes Iowa’s debut such a visceral and engaging experience is its sonic qualities.

There is noticeably less buzz about DragonForce nowadays, but if you’re seeking metal with more hooks than your grandfather’s tackle box and you can forgive the formulaic elements, get your air guitars ready.

The ‘nu thrash’ groups have run out of puff. But all is not lost: Overkill keep delivering the goods with a minimum of fuss and drama. Thrash isn’t quite dead yet.

It’s always so identifiably him, perfectly constructed, even in the ragged edges and scars left showing

While their new stuff is perhaps a little less polished... the Brits haven’t forgotten how to pen a catchy-as-hell pop chorus

A curious mish-mash of all the noises they’ve made rolled into one languid, yet respectfully short record

All Or Nothing isn’t the Pennywise record we were all hoping for.

It could be the album that makes Father John a bit more popular than he would like.

A ferocious and inspired debut album, steeped in an array of influences to blend the emotion of soul and country.

Six60 runs at just under two hours in playing time – an extraordinary measure, given that the band’s desire is surely to engage new listeners

There are some fucking amazing tracks here, maybe some of the best heard all year. But there are also some utter travesties too.
