Another night at The Forum in Kentish Town and another sold out show.  Given that this was the last night of the UK section of their touring schedule this was one hell of a way for Halestorm to say goodbye to their UK fans.  The Smoking Hearts were up first …

@Planetmosh interviews @shayleybourget from @DayShell Despite being a very new band, this was the second time Dayshell were playing in the UK, and having one of those shows a sold out gig in at The Forum in London is definitely not bad going.  Before their set Planetmosh spoke to Shayley …

@Planetmosh @TheWildhearts  @HeyHelloMusic @VHBROZ When I saw how big the que was outside of Rock City in Nottingham, I just knew straight away we were in for a good night! Getting there fairly early, I made my way into the venue and settled myself down. I’d found a great spot to see everything, …

This wasn’t my first foray to a Status Quo concert. It was however my first time to see the ‘Frantic Four” line up that released the ‘real’ Quo albums (Hello, Dog of Two Head and Piledriver to name a few), that heralded heavy blues rock. No “whatever you want” or …

@PlanetMosh @LouellaDeville_ interview with @MidnightMob101 To supplement our review of their album These days, Midnight Mob have taken the time to answer some questions for us. I sent off my questions by email but as I’m over in the UK and they’re across a big ocean in the USA I can’t …

.@PlanetMosh reviews DevilDriver, @BleedFromWithin and @Sylosis in Belfast On the only previous occasion on which DevilDriver played Belfast – a month short of eight years ago – the local Free Presbyterian intelligentsia (the Norn Iron equivalent of the US’ moral minority/religious right) picketed the outdoor festival which they were headlining: …

And so the metallians gathered once more on the evening of the sabbath to worship at the church of RocKD and hear the gospel according to the lords of the riff… and, verily, I say unto you it was a mighty evening of monstrous metal mayhem, as we shall now …

FM are the opening band on the current Foreigner UK tour, they had just 30 minutes to get the crowd on their side, and they did this with ease. It was good to see a nearly full venue for FM, as it proves that they can still pull a crowd, …

Opening tonight’s bill were Pop Evil from Michigan USA, and here in the UK for the first time.  Straight away they impressed me – they sounded great and put everything they had into their performance.  The band members were constantly running around the stage, jumping, and generally burning off more …

.@Planetmosh @AnybodyBC reviews @prongmusic and @klogrmusic gig in Glasgow They say it was the day of the fools and jokes. Well, I say, that it was the day when two metal teams from two different continents stormed The Cathouse in Glasgow. No kidding! The first band of the evening, Italian …
