"Overall an exuberantly intense, rumbustiously tumultuous listening experience that will leave you quite emotionally exhausted but somewhat rejuvenated at the same time. The stunning vocal harmonies from Courtney and Alper are the albums crowning glory and make this an essential album to hear." That was part of our take on Pure Reason Revolution's 'Above Cirrus' (Video Of The Day) one of six nominees in our 2022 WRC Best Reviewed Album Award, that also includes Brave Rival/'Life's Machine', The Mike Ross Band/'Peach Jam', The Climate Stripes/'Debut', Dr. Feelgood/'Damn Right' and The Sheepdogs/'Outta Sight'.

Not originally our intended Christmas Day Video Of The Day, but Faithless lead singer Maxi Jazz's sad death on Friday at the age of 65 is another shock to the system and, in particular, to the soundtrack of the mid-nineties, hence today's timeless masterpiece, 'Insomnia', from Glastonbury in 2002, is dedicated in Maxi's memory.

"The fantastically named Pearl Handled Revolver take to the stage, and boy are these guys a force of nature. They combine the Hammond organ attack of the Doors (Simon Rinado) with a Brontosaurus-stomp of Blues riffs of early Led Zeppelin." That was part of our take on a Sunday In September, an all-day festival at London's The Bedford in Balham (Video Of The Day), featuring the best in modern Progressive Rock music including indeed Pearl Handled Revolver, one of four nominees in our 2022 WRC Best Prog Rock Awards, that also includes Frost, Focus and Porcupine Tree.

"The future is bright for Kingfish, and he’ll be returning to our shores in 2023. He is currently one of the best Blues artists (and one of the best guitarists) that you’re yet to see. The man does not miss a note. He doesn’t strain his voice or waiver from his songs given the ever-changing arrangements between shows. Make sure you are there to see him and have a listen to the first album ‘Kingfish’ and sophomore album ‘662’ to be ready. This kid is a sensation, and we can’t afford to be left behind." That was part of our take when we reviewed Christone “Kingfish” Ingram at London's Shepherd's Bush Empire in October (pictured/Video Of The Day) and consequently "Kingfish" is also one our nominees in our Best Blues Rock category in our 2022 WRC Awards, along with Kaz Hawkins, The Cinelli Brothers and Beaux Gris Gris & The Apocalypse.

"The fact they love - live for - this music is so evident not just from their superb playing but from their movements, looks, interactions… an absolute joy. If you have the slightest affinity or love for the music of Sabbath, I’d thoroughly recommend doing your best to catch them somewhere along the remainder of this tour."
