Live Review : RADAR on July 27th 2024

RADAR Festival 2024 at the O2 Victoria Warehouse is a vibrant and diverse showcase of progressive and alternative metal/rock acts, featuring both established names and rising stars in the genre. The festival not only covers progressive/technical metal and rock though, it also pushes those boundaries and often breaks them with genre-spanning and unexpected acts that positively challenge the way we look at music and performance. Much like we saw with Tech-Fest UK, at the heart of RADAR is that sense of building a genuine community.

Live Review : Arctangent Festival on August 19th 2022

Last Hyena are another Bristolian outfit pulled into Arctangent's gravitational field. Their take on maths/post-rock is laid-back with an almost loungecore lethargy. There is no urgency at play here and to be honest, there does not need to be, they are the first band on and we have a whole day in front of us. Their proggy-like inclinations fit beautifully with their audience’s hung-over state. Very much music to do (a liquid) breakfast to.

So you have had Jo's glam queen at a Metal fest confessional, now we give you an indie kids perspective.... Yes, you heard right! Indie kid.....
