“We wrote this high-octane material in late 2019 with the intention of a spring release to coincide with touring. Best laid plans eh?

That’s the perspective that The Broken View have put on “Breaking The Habit” in tribute to Chester Bennington as today marks the third year since his tragic passing.

During
Back in March Hungarian Symphonic Metallers Meteora unleashed their second studio record “Tragedy of Delusion” via Nail Records. Closing out with a tribute to the late Chester Bennington (may he rest in peace) and Linkin Park was perhaps an obvious choice given the bands name, but there is more to the story that meets the
Continuing our journey North from Warrington to Newcastle and give a mention to five piece Metalcore act October Ends. Back in 2017 they came to our attention with their EP “A New Path” and having been quietly plugging away at completing their debut full length “Zodiac” during 2019, we had expected them to go big
