Rating - 2/5 John Mayer is an extremely polarising figure in the musical world, so let me caveat this review by saying that I’m unashamedly a huge fan of the majority of his work. He’s a fantastic songwriter with a lot in the bag when it comes to guitar heroics and up to this point,... Continue Reading →
Rating - 3/5 Twitter: https://twitter.com/thisisnoprism Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thisisnoprism Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thisisnoprism/ Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/thisisnoprism Noprism, the synthwave four piece from Newcastle take us back to the heady days of Duran Duran and Human League with aplomb.

And it's good. The opening is slightly incongruous with the remainder, it's very trance piano in it's sound and... Continue Reading →
Rating - 3.5/5 The latest single from the new album “Dark Hands, Thunderbolts” Crazy Arm delivers us Fear Up. It’s a punk western romp that blends Dropkick Murphys and Ennio Morricone.

Rating - 3.5/5 ‘I Don’t Like You’ is the latest single from Lowlives, West coast hard rock outfit with a post grunge twist.

Rating - 4/5 Aspirin, the latest single by Greysha, sees the Shropshire based singer bring a darkly compelling track that makes you want to listen more than once. It's got a mid-nineties trip hop vibe that’s hard not to love, not only in it's nostalgia but also the fact that it's well done. Not a... Continue Reading →
