STONE have been one of the most exciting, visceral acts in the Liverpool scene for a good few years now. They’ve gained a cult following for the intensity of their live shows and last year they finally delivered what the fans had been calling for… their debut album. ‘Fear Life For A Lifetime’ was a poignant culmination of their journey so far and was a fierce Rock record laced with heartfelt undertones. However, there was a rumbling in the background that the album release p

BIG SPECIAL’s sophomore long-play ‘NATIONAL AVERAGE’ arrived completely unannounced last year, infused with true Black Country grit and an array of sharply-produced electronic instrumentals, in a brain-challenging, hypnotic commentary on the darkness of the modern age. Any album released out of the blue, purely under the guise of a pixelated projected picture of egg and chips, is destined to turn heads, that’s without question.

Korean- American artist NoSo truly showcases their versatility on sophomore album ‘When Are You Leaving?’, released late last year. Centring on self-discovery and identity, the album intimately explores the questions that we ask ourselves.

The vocal pairing of Tiger Cohen-Towell and Felix Mackenzie-Barrow is mesmerising and produces

As they anticipate the release of their debut album, ‘Masquerade’ , on the 13th of February 2026, we spoke with Irish up-and-comers Cardinals . The Cork-based outfit masterfully entangle gritty traditional Rock music with complex stories that stick true to the band’s Irish roots. With four fantastic singles from the album already released via So Young Records, ‘Masquerade ’ promises melodic Folk and traditional Rock that has an unforgettably modern shine. Themes of identit

Falkirk quintet Brògeal have become the modern day troubadours of Celtic Folk music, instilling the community spirit of small Scottish and Irish towns in cities across the UK and bringing the cross-generational music traditions to a whole new modern audience. Their debut album 'Tuesday Paper Club' is filled with uplifting, singalong tracks that blend their Celtic origins with the jangly tones of northern 00s Indie and the gritty punch of modern Post-Punk. It's hard hitting
