I'll say one thing for metal - it throws up far better band names than any other musical genre (with rare exception). I mean what else could Lockersludge play other than grinding, heavy tunes? They don't disappoint, either. Their own description of "doom/sludge with a hardcore edge" can't be argued with, though I'd say the … Continue reading Band of the Day: Lockersludge

The following is, in honesty, the blurb for the album but they're a) a new band, b) British and c) damn good so … Continue reading Band of the Day: Seprevation

Steve Saluto has been playing guitar since he was fifteen, and can now boast a back-catalogue of eleven albums - some solo, some as part of a band. His style ranges from flamenco to metal - … Continue reading Band of the Day: Steve Saluto
