On the 2nd of March Holding Absence and Loathe were meant to be playing Audio in Glasgow. However due to the bad weather that had been going about the United Kingdom at the time the show had to get postponed to the 5th of March. However, this did not stop both bands from coming to Glasgow, Scotland and giving the audience an amazing show as well as the local support from Divide  and Rainfalls.  Rainfalls a four piece melodic-hardcore band hailing from Glasgow, Scotland was first to set foot on the stage. This band had a great sound to them which managed to get the crowd nicely ready for the artists who were ahead of them, as well as putting on a good show themselves. However, with the vocalist's back to the crowd throughout most of the set and with the stage rather dark throughout with only flashing lights it did make the stage hard to look at, at times. This is a band which does have a lot of talent however and would fit perfectly on a hardcore show. The other local ban...

While She Sleeps returned to Glasgow since their album release of "You Are We" to play the 02 ABC alongside Counterfeit. and Blood Youth on the 8th of February 2018. As a result I decided to go along to the show and share my views on all three bands that played. The first band to perform was Blood Youth , a four piece, hardcore punk band from Harrogate, England. With loads of energy right from the very beginning of their set this was a band I was excited about and one which also excited the crowd by having a lot of people singing along to their music as well as crowd-surfing. This made Blood Youth  an amazing opening act for the show and one that got the crowd excited for what was coming next. It was nice to also see that they did thank the security as well for looking after everyone, which did show how humble a band they are. This is definitely a band to keep your eyes on in 2018 especially within the United Kingdom. Counterfeit. was next to embrace the stage; a  ...

Hollywood Undead came back to the United Kingdom this month with their own headline tour with support from The One Hundred  from London, England. We managed to see them in Glasgow on the first night of the tour (24th January 2018) and are happy to share our thoughts on the show. The One Hundred  as the only support act for the show was first to go on the stage, with many people not knowing who they were it was difficult to warm up the crowd. However, this did not stop them from having fun on stage and dancing about and seeming to be in their own bubble. With the crowd not sure what to make of them they continued by playing songs from their new album as well as some of their older music. It was difficult to really know what to think of their set as they played fast jumpy songs then slow songs every once in a while making the set sort of jumpy instead of as smooth as it could have been. However, this was a great opening act which is a band that we should all be keeping an ey...

On the 20th of January Escape The Fate came back to Glasgow, Scotland on their headline tour with support from Set To Stun and Shields to play at the Garage thanks to Triple G Music. Here is what we thought of all of the bands who performed. First to grace the stage was Shields , a metal band from London, England. With being the first band on and not many people in the room at the moment they did not let this effect their live performance at all. Playing all originals that not many of the audience knew they had enough energy and a good flow between all of the songs that they were performing that people were still engaged with the performance. With also thanking everyone who came down early to catch their set and exciting the crowd about the other bands coming on after them they are a very humble band which is a very pleasing thing to see on the stage. As the end of their set came you could hear the people in the audience saying that they liked Shields and were a band they had to ...
