Killswitch Engage - NX, Newcastle 11.10.2025
Killswitch Engage Hatebreed Fit For An Autopsy Decapitated A four band bill on a Saturday night normally means an early start and the first band playing to the room as the crowd are still filing through. Not so for tonights opener however as NX had pretty much already filled out when Decapitated took to the stage to kick off this evenings assault on the senses! I know a number of folk who’d got tickets because Poland’s death metal quartet were on the bill and they certainly w


Soulfracture – 'The Leader of the Exploited' EP Review
Tracklist: The Leader of the Exploited My Immolation Call from the Void Genocide of Man Are you looking for an EP that will bludgeon you with sheer power and raw enthusiasm? Then you have come to the right place! This debut EP from Soulfracture is brain-bashing, head-banging metalcore at it’s finest.

As Rome Burns - 'Reactor' EP Review
Tracklist: Animal I Am Your Enemy I Think You Should Leave As Rome Burns advertise themselves as an alternative, punk, grunge band – and while I didn’t exactly know what that would sound like going into this single, the moment I listened, I realised that it’s a perfect description of their sound. The EP starts with “Animal” – A track that bubbles over with raw power and a cathartic sense of anger. The chorus is singable, but for me the sheer screams of the verses are the bits
