PlanetMosh: Hi Ignite the Sky, can you introduce yourselves and the band, what do you all play? Adam: I’m Adam, I play lead guitar. Luke: I’m Luke, I play the other guitar. Rich: Rich, I do the shouty shout and angelic vocals! Adam: We also have Dan Cross on vocal …

Two of the most special voices come together for a once in a lifetime co­headlining acoustic tour. Their music has inspired and gathered fans for several decades, and as their schedules finally could match up, it was a easy decision to put both artists together on the same bill, something …

Back in June 2014 Reading based Stoner/Doom band Morass Of Molasses put on the first event that would be named ‘Sludgefest’. It was an experiment to see if there really was an audience for this style of music in their local scene. Needless to say it was a resounding success, …

Sunday openers at SOS Festival were Hells Addiction, another band that have recently come up on my radar under the “one to watch” banner. Catchy classic rock with a big twin guitar sound and some fine vocals in the style of a Gillan or Plant give this band a growing …

Saturday dawned hot and sunny for SOS festival day two and I made it back just in time to catch openers Soma Dark who were another thrash band with shouty vocals but also some melody. They powered through a short set that finished with what appeared to be a metal …

2016 saw the debut of a new venue for Rocksector Records’ SOS Festival following the demolition of their previous home at Radcliffe Civic Hall. The Longfield Suite in Prestwich turned out to be a good choice, easy to get to (apart from a bit of congestion on the M60) with …

For Glaswegian doom mongers Headless Kross, their annual trips to the island of Ireland have become something of a pilgrimage. This evening their latest visit is well-rewarded, as, despite the gig’s early hour, Voodoo’s intimate upstairs club is rammed almost to capacity with those who enjoy their rock at the …

Dublin based quartet The Devil Wants Her Swagger Back have created a sound that brings to mind the industrial thud of early Fear Factory with the velocity of The Berzerker on their latest E.P Malice. Due for release on October 1st 2016 it contains a production that hits hard but …

ARCH ENEMY will play the biggest stage production of their career at next week’s WACKEN OPEN AIR on Saturday, August 6th around midnight, making this the pinnacle of a highly successful album campaign.

Now, as July prepares to fade into oblivion, the English …

There’s something exciting about a sold out gig, you know in advance the atmosphere is going to be good and Slade Rooms tonight was no exception. When Inglorious came on stage the venue was already hot, sweaty and full to the back. Evident from the number of band t-shirts coming …

PlanetMosh caught up with The Rev and Toshi backstage at this past weekend’s Steelhouse festival to get all the latest buzzness (sic) from the Hey! Hello! camp, including the inside scoop on the re-recording of their ‘Hey! Hello! Too!’ album, following the spectacular walkout of their then lead vocalist on …
