Review: Striking Justice – De Verharding
From Hengelo, The Netherlands comes a band called Striking Justice. These guys are responsible for De Verharding, their new six-track record. It is the follow up of their 2011 release called Building. Even though Building was in my opinion an amazing record, this new record is a real treat for the heavy music fan with … Continue reading
Live Review: John Coffey @ Tivoli De Helling, 27 September 2012
For most Dutch bands it seems like an impossible task to get the crowd going during a show. Most people stand still with their arms crossed, or enjoy their beers, not giving back the energy the band puts in their performance. John Coffey was caught by surprise when a sold-out venue returned the words “Still … Continue reading
Review: Outright – Dedication
Dedication is Melbourne-based Outright‘s new EP that’s been put out on their own label Reason and Rage Records. The 7″ is available in three different colored vinyls.

Their eclectic style of music, and intriguing live performances are like none I had heard before, and made me long for more. When I heard about the new album I immediately wanted … Continue reading
Review: My Iron Lung – Grief
The name My Iron Lung probably reminds some of us of an obscure Radiohead EP that was released in 1994. Radiohead fans will be disappointed, this band is quite different. These guys, hailing from San Diego, recently released their five-track debut EP titled Grief on Pure Noise Records. And what a debut. The EP starts off with a calm ambient-like intro, that … Continue reading

Gallows – S/T
I always have been a great fan of both Alexisonfire and Gallows.

After his departure from the band, Wade MacNeil of Alexisonfire … Continue reading
