Our Darkest Days – Quebéc City, Quebéc, Canada It is safe to say that the incoming album from Our Darkest Days entitled Snakes & Ladders has, though rapidly approaching, been a long and arduous time coming. In the interest of expedition and getting to this review as fast as the Quebéc…
Full NutritionHike The Peak – Sheffield, England, United Kingdom Though I don’t wish to hike any peaks myself in the literal sense, introducing Hike The Peak, the band, is far more reasonable.

Full NutritionFreedumb – Østfold, Norway Freedumb and The Freedumb Curse – Reversed are part of a trend. A trend in Punk? OH NO! Stay with me now. That was for dramatic effect. One of the things about bands, of all shapes and sizes, is that much of the music you see, hear and digest…

Full NutritionScavengers Circle – Västerås, Sweden Sweden is a country synonymous with fast and heavy music from crushing Metal to melodic Punk-Rock. Scavengers Circle and Beyond Repair are very much on the fringe of an “in-between” of sorts. The band, or rather the project, is split between two musicians who unleashed…
Full NutritionZombies No – Paris, France Zombies No are a band from everywhere. Well, Venezuela, France and Italy with a home in the city of Paris. Zombies No entered 2020 with ALL YOU CAN HATE. An EP acting as the latest of the band’s forays into the fast Punk scene with…
