With Marjana Semkina, Iamthemorning’s lyricist, singer and co-songwriter, set to release her spellbinding debut solo album, 'Sleepwalking' on Valentine's Day next year through Kscope, she has premiered the track 'Everything Burns', which is today's Track Of The Day. 'Sleepwalking' is a musical blend akin to the darker Folk of Aldous Harding, Marissa Nadler, Sumie and Florist. To aid her vision for Sleepwalking, Marjana invited renowned keyboardist, drummer and bassist Jordan Rudess (Dream Theater), Craig Blundell and Nick Beggs, as well as the St. Petersburg Orchestra "1703" and frequent collaborator Vlad Avy. Characterised by Marjana’s composed and unique voice, complex melodic lines and poetic lyrics with literary references, 'Sleepwalking' draws from the Iamthemorning soundscape but exists fully in her world; a compelling mixture of alternative Folk, Pop, drama, beauty and emotionally purging lyrics.

Thirty years down the line and 'Slam' more than stands the test of time, its ethos as relevant as ever, and the Dan Reed Network is currently celebrating its anniversary on tour by playing the album in its entirety, co-headlining their ‘Big 3-0 Tour’ with Gun and FM, including London's O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire last night. Indeed, the legendary pioneering Funk Rock five-piece’s self-titled debut album plus ‘Slam’ has just been totally remastered at Abbey Road Studios by Miles Showell and released on Universal Music at the end of October, including streaming for the very first time. Anyway, with more photos and a review to come, check out today's Video Of The Day.

Two legends from the British Punk era have been added to next year's HRH Punk II line-up – with only 80 pairs of tickets left! Heading to the O2 Academy Sheffield over the weekend of 10/11th October are TV Smith and the Bored Teenagers, featuring the legendary frontman of British Punk pioneers The Adverts. TV Smith has been lauded as one of the leading singer-songwriters to emerge from the Punk era, and also fronted bands such as Cheap and TV Smith’s Explorers. Also added to the already incredible line-up are the hugely influential GBH. Not only were they front-runners in the Punk scene from their inception in 1978, but they have also led the way for Metal bands too such as Bathory. The core of the band remains intact with both Colin Abrahall (vocals) and Colin ‘Jock’ Blyth (guitar) being ever-present right up to the current line-up.

Not only do Dinosaur Pile-Up complete their sold-out UK headline tour at London's Scala tonight in support of their critically acclaimed new album 'Celebrity Mansions', but they have also announced a landmark headline show at London’s O2 Forum Kentish Town on Friday 3rd April. The new album has seen Dinosaur Pile-Up lay claim to 2019 as one of the UK’s most exciting and talked about Rock bands, a year that they completed a monumental nine week US tour, which saw them play 37-dates, as they toured arenas across the country with Shinedown, plus Canada on a 14-date tour with The Offspring and Sum 41.

It’s been three years since Running Wild wowed their fans with their (still) current album 'Rapid Foray'. Three years in which a lot of water has passed under the Metal galleys of time and the fans’ requests for new songs have become more and more vociferous. To ease the wait so that his supporters won’t have to hold out until early Summer 2020, Running Wild vocalist and guitarist Rock 'n' Rolf Kasparek came up with a real masterstroke last Friday on Saint Nicholas Day – the band, also featuring Peter Jordan – guitars, Ole Hempelmann - bass and Michael Wolpers – drums, had a special little gift for their fans and released their EP 'Crossing The Blades' on Steamhammer/SPV, featuring four brand-new tracks, including an exciting cover of the Kiss classic, ‘Strutter’.

London four-piece The Jacques recently released their new single, ‘I Never Want To Be Your Boyfriend’, and tonight they play the last gig of their current tour at London's Dublin Castle in Camden. Opening to a driving bassline juxtaposed with swelling guitar lines, saccharine synths and nonchalant vocals, ‘I Never Want To Be Your Boyfriend’ is a reverb-drenched slice of dream-Pop which builds through verses laden with evocative lyricism into infectious choruses which convey their intent from beneath a shroud of laid-back irreverence. Next March the band hit the road for an extensive tour including shows in Newcastle, Birmingham, Brighton, Bristol and London's The Victoria on Friday 20th.

The four-headed Irish-Australian Rock hyda from Sydney's inner west, Flickertail, recently released their new single 'Contact Sport', which is today's Video Of The Day. Flickertail play guitar-fuelled Rock and Roll exactly the way it’s supposed to be played, drawing inspiration from the likes of Thin Lizzy, The Dubliners, Airbourne and The Darkness. Since their inception, the band have played relentlessly and are reaping the rewards. An incendiary live performance honed in the booze dens and back yard of Australia’s Eastern coast was refined on stages shared with Aussie legends Buffalo and the Superjesus, before international support slots with the likes of Supersuckers, Zak Starkey and Living Colour.

Today's latest Blues On The Radio Track Of The Day has music from Mike Zito featuring Robben Ford, Julian Taylor Band, The Two Hats Blues Band, Malford Milligan, The Blind Lemon Gators, Half Deaf Clatch, Ben Poole, Bill Howl 'n' Madd Perry and Sam Lewis & Jimmy Carpenter. And if that wasn't enough, all that is bracketed by tracks from Oli Brown (pictured) ahead of his show tonight at The Tuesday Night Music Club, The Comrades Club, Coulsdon CR5 2NF.

And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead release the band’s first new album in six years, and their tenth album, 'X: The Godless Void and Other Stories’ next month on Friday 17th January via InsideOut, and everything kicks into full pelt with their noisy and thrilling existential anthem for their new single ‘Into The Godless Void’ which is today's Video Of The Day. And to celebrate their upcoming 25th anniversary, next year they will also undertake a European headline tour, including London's The Dome on Tuesday 10th March.
