Local(ish) lads done good with this one. Fallen Ashes ply their trade around the central belt of Scotland and, though we've heard the name before, I don't think we've featured them. So thanks to the band for throwing new single "Wage War" in our direction for a bit of reviewing! The band label themselves "alternative … Continue reading Single Review: Fallen Ashes – Wage War

Single Review: MuddiBrooke – Float
The last twelve months haven’t exactly been quiet for MuddiBrooke.

I'd have been disappointed if King hadn't released something that sounded like his longstanding famous band's older material, and I'm not disappointed with "Idle Hands". I just feel … Continue reading Single Review: Kerry King – “Idle Hands”
Single Review: BroadWing – “Same Old Psycle”
I think I just found a new favourite pop punk band. OK, so they're not going to displace my other favourites, of which there are many, but they're certainly joining the club. Hailing from New England (as opposed to the Olde one), they've been going since 2015 so it's only taken me a decade to … Continue reading Single Review: BroadWing – “Same Old Psycle”
