Hey Colossus - Heaven Was Wild album cover. Rough sketch portraits of the faces of many cats, in dark indigo ink against a yellow background.

'There are some strong moments like β€˜People You Long to Forget’, an alluring track with a menacing chorus line, but for the most part, I can’t help but yearn for the sound Hey Colossus were striving towards in the early 2000s.'

Kling Klang - Half Life album cover. Brutalist concrete pillars.

'Half Life, explores post-punk through a different lens. Over ten beautifully and oddly orchestrated pieces, the group explore a synth-heavy and hypnotic alternate universe where the power of instrumentals is enough to tell moving stories'

I'm bored to death of bands telling us they're "bringing rock back". Rock never left: it just evolved Rock is at its most exciting when it does something new, right?

Losing my Bluesky virginity with my first post! πŸ¦‹

Recently wrote a piece for Louder about how annoying it is when bands claim they're bringing rock back, (it never went anywhere!!)
