The final day of the first year of Maid of Stone crashed into action with Death Ingloria opening up the Maiden Stage tent with their eccentric and exciting tracks – the bassist had the strongest energy on stage, interacted with both crowd and press and put on a great opener to the last day of … Continue reading Festival Review: Sunday at Maid of Stone 2023 (Kit)

Festival Review: Steelhouse 2023 – Saturday
Day two of Steelhouse 2023 and the music naturally starts a few hours earlier than yesterday.

Crew Review 2021: Ross – Deputy Editor-in-Chief
The more things change, the more they stay the same. We started 2021 locked up because of a virus and it’s looking like we may end it in a similar fashion. And much like every other year I’m written one of these year-end reviews, I’m flabbergasted that we’re at the end of another calendar year … Continue reading Crew Review 2021: Ross – Deputy Editor-in-Chief
