Live albums have long been a topic of debate among music fans and critics alike. While some argue that live recordings capture the raw energy and essence of a band's performance, others believe they can never truly replicate the experience of being at a live show. Let's dive into the reasons why some bands have released live albums and consider the arguments for and against this practice, featuring examples from Iron Maiden, Dire Straits, and IDLES.

2025 ACOUSTIC TOUR DATES THIS WEEK

‘Kind of Acoustic’, the new album by PET NEEDS is out now, via the Xtra Mile Recordings label.

The release arrives in the midst of a special acoustic tour of the UK - catch them on the road now!

Mother Vulture's latest track, Slow Down, (out Thursday 30 January 2025) is a visceral sonic journey that delves into the depths of the human psyche. This new release presents the band at their heaviest, with octave-fuzz-laden riffs and raw, feverish energy. It’s a musical manifestation of anxiety and self-destructive tendencies, capturing the experience of wrestling with inner demons.

HIMALAYAS have announced their new album BAD STAR for release on April 25th via Nettwerk Music Group. The album is available to pre-order now here.

SUMMER SESSIONS take place this year at six amazing venues across the country. We’ll be covering all 4 of the events that take place on The Hoe in the heart of Plymouth and what a lineup they have in store for us.

Here’s the lowdown on the first event that takes place on Thursday 12th June.

Once you have read all bios, please click on the playlist at the bottom to enjoy all tracks mentioned.

Back in 2006, the Arctic Monkeys released Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not, a brash, swaggering debut that changed the landscape of indie rock overnight. It was raw, witty, and soaked in the sweat of British nightlife. Fast-forward almost two decades, and the ghost of that era lingers on – or worse, it’s been repackaged and sold back to us in a way that feels stale, calculated, and depressingly uninspired.

I love it when PET NEEDS release new material, even better when the new release is a collection of 12 classic tracks that have been revisited, reimagined and rerecorded acoustically, read on to find out what it’s all about….

Tonight, Exeter Phoenix hosted another of its legendary New Band Showcase events, this was not the first and most certainly won’t be the last and looking back over the last few years, I have been turned on to some killer bands thanks to these events.

Respected musician Anthony Anzaldo, otherwise known as Anthony Family has released new single "Another Sad Love Song".

Chicago, US-Knuckle Puck, have released the gritty and anthemic track "Nice To Know Ya". 

World’s First Cinema released their first single of 2025, “Paranoid,” via Fearless Records.

PVRIS have announced a 10-year Anniversary tour of the pivotal debut album, "White Noise". The tour which takes in dates across the United States in the Spring, and UK/Europe in the Summer will see the album which Teen Vogue called "addictively edgy" played from start to finish. 

Hot on the heels of unleashing their #1 charting sophomore album ‘Mutation’, Australian heavy alt-rock powerhouses RedHook are extending the celebrations across the UK and Europe, announcing their first ever headline tour for April/May 2025.
