The original line up of the legendary Meat Puppets (Video Of The Day) are back together and playing London's ULU Live tonight. This March the Arizona Alt-Rockers returned with their first new album 'Dusty Notes' since 2013's 'Rat Farm', and their first featuring their original line-up intact since 1995. Though brothers Curt and Cris Kirkwood reunited in 2006 and have toured and recorded together since then, the band’s original drummer, Derrick Bostrom, has not recorded with the band since 1995’s 'No Joke!' Also joined by keyboardist Ron Stabinsky and Curt’s son Elmo on guitar, the original band first reunited for a performance at the Arizona Music & Entertainment Hall of Fame in 2017.

Dinosaur Pile-Up (Track Of The Day) have announced a European and UK tour in support of their critically acclaimed fourth album 'Celebrity Mansions', out now via Parlophone Records. Having just completed European arena shows supporting Muse, an intimate album release tour of the UK and an adrenaline fuelled performance at Download Festival, Dinosaur Pile-Up are wasting no time getting ready to hit the road again at the end of the year. They spend the Summer on a massive North American tour with Shinedown, followed by their first ever headline tour of the USA, and then as the days get colder they’ll be kicking things off in Germany and thrashing their way through Europe, before returning to the UK to finish the tour with a special show at London’s very own Scala on Wednesday 11th December. Dinosaur Pile-Up are ruffling feathers and breaking the mould with their most Punk Rock and in-your-face material to date, and with 'Celebrity Mansions' they’re proving how vital and pivotal British Rock music is today.

Vital new four-piece Swedish Rock phenomenon MoLD have signed to the GMR Music record label to release their outstanding debut album 'Horrors’ on Friday 26th July via Plastic Head Distribution, and the first single to be taken from their album, ‘Breaking Bones', is today's Track Of The Day. MoLD’s raw, melodic, irresistibly manic sonic style unequivocally reflects the Blues created by the effects of cold and darkness on the human psyche during harsh northern Scandinavian winters. Along with the shared desire to play thunderous Rock ’n’ Roll, they first came to life, kickin’ and screamin’, when distinctive vocalist/guitarist Johan Liljeberg and guitarist Mattias Ekstig, who had originally met as teenagers, (bonded by a mutual love of Heavy Metal), felt the need to play music again after a few years in the wilderness. They soon enrolled talented drummer Per-Ake Lithner (P-A), (who had played with Johan in another band - The Meek - a few years earlier, before eventually finalising the line-up when groove-master bassist Peter Lundgren came on board.

Multi-platinum selling band Skid Row will embark on a full UK tour this year, which will see the New Jersey Rockers playing shows across the land, starting at Scotland's Winterstorm Fest on Friday 29th November and ending at The Mill, Birmingham on Sunday 8th December. Skid Row started in 1986 when a group of New Jersey kids, armed with their Punk and Metal attitude, and a collection of riff-heavy, high-octane songs, set out to conquer the world, one concert at a time. This determined and focused approach proved to be an unquestionable success, as the group went on to clock up numerous Top Ten singles, Gold and multi-Platinum selling albums and a Number 1 on the Billboard albums chart. Special guests on various nights of the tour will be The Quireboys, Hollowstar, Matt Mitchell & The Cold Hearts and Crashdiet.

King Crimson (Video Of The Day) celebrated their 50th Anniversary last night with the first of three consecutive shows at London's Royal Albert Hall. Often acclaimed as one of the best live bands in the world, King Crimson has constantly re-invented itself throughout its existence. Having reformed in 2014 the current seven-piece line-up features Robert Fripp (guitar), Mel Collins (saxophones and flute), Tony Levin (bass, stick and backing vocals), Jakko Jakszyk (guitar and vocals) and drummers Gavin Harrison, Pat Mastelotto and Jeremy Stacey -– who doubles on keyboards. Each show is around three hours long, with a setlist newly written each day by Fripp, accessing a large number of historic pieces which have never previously been performed live, as well as old favourites plus their own newly written material.

With a review to come, check out today both our Photo Gallery here plus another Video Of The Day of Northern California band Tesla, who turned back the years on Sunday night when they played London's Shepherd's Bush Empire. With great support from Wayward Sons and Flashfires, the band featuring Brian Wheat - bass, Frank Hannon - guitar, Jeff Keith - vocals, Troy Luccketta - drums and Dave Rude - guitar, truly Rocked the joint with new material from their latest album 'Shock', plus fan favourites 'Modern Day Cowboy', 'Miles Away' and 'Love Song'. Awesome.

Today's Track Of The Day is another Blues On The Radio, an hour filled with music from Jimmie Vaughan, Jack J Hutchinson, R.K.Turner, Goofa Dust, Meg Williams, Catfish, Railroad Band, Spikedrivers, Jon Gindick, Laurence Jones, Lethbridge Owen, The Head Hunters Blues Band and, of course, ahead of their show tonight at The Tuesday Night Music Club, The Comrades Club, Coulsdon CR5 2NF, Big Wolf Band featuring Zoe Green.

"This was an incredible concert played with great precision and passion, but for me this felt like very cerebral music for the head rather than something for my heart – but then again I do not possess that life-long emotional ‘fan’ connection so evident in so many ‘Krim’ worshippers present. However, there can be no denying the exceptional musical abilities and timing demonstrated in songs that demand split-second reactions to crossover rhythms, key changes and sudden u-turns mid-number that made the incredibly difficult seem easy. This is high-end musicianship that would challenge the most accomplished performers from any genre." That was part of our take on King Crimson at Hackney Empire in September 2015, and tonight the Progressive Rock group return to London for the first of three consecutive nights at London's Royal Albert Hall.

With 'The War We Miss?', due to be released on Friday 28th June, Jacob's Fall have written one of the most astounding, most tangent and most entrancing German Rock albums of the recent past. What’s so mental about all of this is that this is actually a debut record. Yet, the roots of Jacob’s Fall, consisting of Christian Faust - vocals, guitar, Jens Pietzonka - guitar, additional vocals, Daniel Pabst - bass and René Jauernik - drums, go way deeper than their official birth in 2016. Some of the members were playing in nineties Dark Rock hopefuls My Insanity and toured Europe alongside acts like Lacuna Coil, Samael or Therion. With songs crafted on an international top-notch level, with huge refrains and intoxicating melodies, the four-piece also left nothing to chance when it comes to the right sound, with their soaring, atmospheric Rock being elegiac, thoughtful and very serious.

Two days after they appeared at Download and eleven years after we last saw them at Holland's Boerderij in Zoetermeer, Northern California band Tesla turned back the years last night when they played London's Shepherd's Bush Empire with support from Wayward Sons and Flash Fires. As well as playing new material from their latest album 'Shock', Brian Wheat - bass, Frank Hannon - guitar, Jeff Keith - vocals, Troy Luccketta - drums and Dave Rude - guitar, mixed it up with fan favourites 'Modern Day Cowboy', 'Miles Away' and 'Love Song'. Anyway, with a review and more photos to come, check out today's Video Of The Day.

Jorn Lande celebrated his 50th birthday in 2018 with the release of a 12 album box set and some live shows that featured the most diverse setlists of his career and presented the true and ultimate legacy of himself as an artist and band leader. His headlining set at the Frontiers Rock Festival in Milan, Italy, was recorded in its full glory, and this epic concert performance 'Live On Death Road' (see today's Track Of The Day) was released last Friday. One of the most prolific vocalists of the modern Metal era, Jorn’s powerful vocal talent has earned him status as one of the last pioneers of true classic Hard Rock and Heavy Metal. Aside from his main band, Jorn, Lande has fronted acts including Ark, Beyond Twilight and Masterplan, while he has also participated on projects such as the Nostradamus and Dracula Rock Operas, the Allen/Lande albums with Symphony X vocalist Russell Allen, plus the Ayreon and Avantasia projects.

Time to Rock Out big time on a Sunday! The first time we saw Northern California band Tesla was opening the Arrow Rock Festival in Biddinghuizen in June 2007 and again in Holland a year later in Zoetermeer. Anyway, eleven years down the line they are playing London's Shepherd's Bush Empire tonight with support from Wayward Sons (Track Of The Day) and Flash Fires. Way back in 1987, Def Leppard and Tesla did a historic 'in the round' show that was the first time a Rock concert was done in the centre of an arena - an era when Def Leppard’s 'Hysteria' album was breaking platinum status and Tesla's first album 'Mechanical Resonance' was turning heads on MTV.
