A while back when discussing the success of Stay Sick Recordings and what we’d do if we won the lottery, Gecko came up with an idea. That idea was to create a record label of our own and then go to bands who have now gone their separate ways and cash inject them back into
Not only is it a new dawn and a new day, but it’s New Year’s Day! So we’ve cooked up a final listmania entry in our awards season for that hangover light reading experience! As with most years, 2019 saw a number of bands start their journeys in Metal with debut singles, music videos and
Yesterday Revolver Magazine shared their “20 Biggest Stories of 2019” and as with theprp.com’s recent top #25 list, theirs is dominated by one band. Tool. We must be missing something. Not that we’ve got anything against Tool as such, just that we’ve never really been fans. Quite how Evanescence managed to get onto the list

It might (or might not) be a surprise that “We Are Not Your Kind” by Slipknot doesn’t feature on everyone’s list and that each one has some shared releases as well as
The seasons festivities are well under way with plenty of our favourite alcoholic beverages on the go. So here are five of our go to albums to soothe a savage hangover. After all, everyone loves beer O’clock but after you’ve been on the whiskey as well, the following day might be a bit harder to
Galactic Pegasus guitarist and Canadian music producer Andrew Baena is a man after our own heart. By that we mean, like us he has some form of attention deficit disorder that means some stupid list of 25, 50, 100 or more albums of 2019 is just going to be as boring as… not putting Vodka
