After a little more than a year of being a band, Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes have just released a mini docu entitled “Year Of The Snake”, giving insight in the band’s forming and their experiences of the last few months. The whole thing was directed by my good friend Max Horn at Baronxbones. Absolutely … Continue reading
This year’s edition of Groezrock – their 25th anniversary – was an odd one. No means to set a negative tone here, but as a 25-year-old, punk/hardcore-loving kid this year’s line-up wasn’t quite what I expected or hoped for. And looking at the comment feed of the Groezrock Facebook-page and the amount of friends who … Continue reading

Last weekend, 40.000 punk, hardcore and metal fans from all over the world traveled to Meerhout, Belgium for the 24th edition of Groezrock. This years bill yet again offered a great mixture of bands; new and old; big and small. Unfortunately we had work obligations on Friday so we only arrived on site around 9pm, … Continue reading
The almighty Modern Life Is War from Marshalltown, Iowa are back on the road in Europe this month, accompanied by Birds In Row from France and Terrible Feelings from Sweden. Last Friday the tour stopped by Dynamo in Eindhoven and we were there to witness the smashing performance by Modern Life Is War; unfortunately we missed the … Continue reading
2014 saw the release of Pianos Become The Teeth’s beautiful, yet very different third album Keep You. A departure from their post-rock/screamo hybrid into more emo-ish territory, completely leaving screams behind in favor of clean vocals. Pianos are on their first European headline tour since 2012, and the sudden style change raises questions like if … Continue reading
