Classic Cover: Ice Nine Kills / Reel Big Fish – “Walking on Sunshine” (original by Katrina and the Waves)

Just dropped a couple of hours ago is this double-header from scary horror metallers Ice Nine Kills and bonkers ska rockers Reel Big Fish. An odd combination if ever there was one!

Gig Review: Reel Big Fish / [spunge] / Lightyear – SWG3 TV Studio, Glasgow (11th November 2019)

It's Monday night, so it's obviously time for some ska and punk. Plus, heading to SWG3 and piling into a medium sized venue was bound to be warmer than sitting in a cold flat, and cheaper than putting the heating on. Bonus. I dodged in out of the nippy weather just in time to catch … Continue reading Gig Review: Reel Big Fish / [spunge] / Lightyear – SWG3 TV Studio, Glasgow (11th November 2019)

Festival Review: Nova Rock 2019 Day 3

Gig Review: Reel Big Fish / Less Than Jake / Zebrahead / Suburban Legends – O2 Academy, Glasgow (15 November 2018)

The line-up of this tour couldn't be any more perfect for third wave ska fans.  Two of the biggest names in the genre:  Less Than Jake and Reel Big Fish co-headlining is something not to be missed.  Let's not forget the amazing support performances from Zebrahead and Suburban Legends. Unfortunately, I had missed the last … Continue reading Gig Review: Reel Big Fish / Less Than Jake / Zebrahead / Suburban Legends – O2 Academy, Glasgow (15 November 2018)
