‘Get Better: A Film About Frank Turner’

Streamed across the country via satellite, Frank Turner’s film premiere – accompanied by a Q&A, solo acoustic performance, and some technical difficulties (the sound didn’t work in some venues for more than 20 minutes at the opening) – was an unexpected event. One that most of us never expected

LIVE: Biffy Clyro / Brand New @ SSE Hydro, Glasgow

“Home sweet home.” That’s how Biffy’s Simon Neil described the SSE Hydro on a Baltic Tuesday night. Surprisingly, considering they’ve been well and truly adopted by the city (although originally from Kilmarnock), Biffy Clyro have never played the SSE Hydro in Glasgow before.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that 2016 has been shit. Why? We needn’t provide a list of examples. It’s about time then – deep in the depths of November – that something came along to cheer us up. Woe’s debut EP (called ‘Woes’, funnily enough) has done just

Frank Iero and The Patience – ‘parachutes’

Don’t be fooled by that angelic exterior. Frank Iero might appear like butter wouldn’t melt but ‘parachutes’, the latest album from him and his band The Patience, is a rowdy, stand-up-and-listen riot; an impressive, punk-tinged showstopper. From the forceful opening of ‘World Destroyer’ through the growls of ‘Veins! Veins!! Veins!!!’

Losing Ground – ‘Old Glory’

Losing Ground pack a lot into four short tracks. The Kilmarnock foursome’s new EP ‘Old Glory’ embraces elements of punk, folk and melodic pop rock to an intriguing end. ‘Fundamental’ begins with simple rock guitars, before bursting into life with twinkling notes layered over the top. They’re not overtly pushy
