I am very rarely astonished with a band live as much as I was by @spiritboxband last night. Get on it 🔥

Listening to @LINGUA_IGNOTA_ on the flight back from @roadburnfest yesterday and I was pleasantly surprised how well SINNER GET READY synced up with the children screaming two seats in front of me 👌


The truth is out there.

In the UK, the small pool of music business journalists is (not surprisingly) lacking in diversity. If there are any young/aspiring BAME writers out there who are keen to write about the industry side of music (a fascinating entry point), I'm offering help. We need your voices!

For those interested in writing about the business side of music, I can answer questions about journalism and the music industry, help with pitches, ideas for outlets and give feedback on writing, and offer mentoring for someone who wants long-term support. [email protected]

K! recently uploaded this thoughtful chat I had with Riley of @powertriptx. Incidentally, @TwatterLord now have a sale on merch and tunes from PT and tons of other great bands, plus @Bandcamp are once again waiving artist fees tomorrow. Think about it. kerrang.com/features/power…


A wonderful initiative by some absolute heroes.

Today we help launch ‘The Tours That Never Were' - a non-profit fundraiser to benefit independent and underground UK-based bands and crew, and various charities.​​ bit.ly/2W1weOg



It feels strange for there not to be a freshly baked K! this week. Fortunately, there's a suitably Priest-filled @PlanetRockRadio magazine hot off the presses today. Save the supermarket trip by ordering here: greatmagazines.co.uk/planet-rock-is…

.@CCHELSEAWWOLFE singing Pink Floyd's Breathe is the current mood of everything.

The best birthday present I ever got was a surprise party where a lot of my bands came and performed Pink Floyd covers for me, because that’s was all I wanted ❤️ Here was @CCHELSEAWWOLFE ‘s gift @pinkfloyd 🌼



Reasons to be cheerful this Friday: 1) A new @PearlJam album. 2) This series of classic album sleeves, now with responsible social distancing (courtesy of @ActivistaLA). 6feetcovers.wixsite.com/6feetcovers

Among the many excellent things in this week's Kerrang! (shout out to the wonderful @BSTNMNR boys on the cover), I spoke to @AFI and @Thrice about headlining @2000trees. Roll on summer.

.@2000trees have added even more bands to their line-up – including headliners AFI and Thrice 🙌 kerrang.com/the-news/afi-a…

Be sensible. Take care of yourself. Take care of each other.

One of my artists that is particularly screwed right now is @LINGUA_IGNOTA_ if you can help her please donate directly to: paypal.me/linguaignota OR go buy a ton of her merch @hellomerch or @EVILGREED She has lost most of her income and needs surgery it's pretty dire.

Petrol Girls' Ren Aldridge: "Make This Year’s International Women’s Day Inclusive, Anti-Capitalist And Intersectional" — Kerrang! - with love from the Demo in Graz 💜🖤💜🖤💜🖤💜 lots of love to all self defining women today! kerrang.com/features/petro…


.@Kvelertak's new album is probably the most fun you can have with clothes on, but no-one can judge you if it makes you want to tear your shirt off and start a pit in aisle 3. Read about the wild ride it took for them to get to this point in the current issue of @KerrangMagazine

We’re very proud and stoked to finally share 'Splid' with all of you! It’s a long way to the top if you wanna rock’n’roll, and the way leading up to our fourth album has been quite the journey thus far...but here we are. See you on the road! Get SPLID: riserecords.lnk.to/splid
