2017 WRC 'One's To Watch' award winners Stone Broken spent much of 2018 gigging hard, playing non-stop in the UK, Europe and the USA in support of their current studio album 'Ain’t Always Easy', and 2019 sees them continuing down the live path, headlining sixteen dates across the UK and Ireland, including London's O2 Islington Academy last night with great support from Those Damn Crows and Dead Man's Whiskey. With a review plus a Photo Gallery to come - check out the Midlands quartet's Video Of The Day taken from their brilliant set last night.

Stone Broken spent much of 2018 gigging hard, playing non-stop in the UK, Europe and the USA in support of their current studio album 'Ain’t Always Easy', and 2019 sees them continuing down the live path, headlining sixteen dates across the UK and Ireland, including London's O2 Islington Academy tonight with support from Those Damn Crows. The Midlands quartet have recently released a brand new remixed version of ‘The Only Thing I Need’ - taken from 'Ain’t Always Easy'. The track has been given a fresh arrangement by renowned UK engineer/producer Adrian Hall, who has previously worked with such artists as Alicia Keys, The Clash, Robbie Williams & Goldfrapp.

"It's fair to say that the band is not all about Mr. Buchanan though. The album crosses so may Rock genres and combines the influences of the band, none more so than Mart Trail's undoubted NWOBHM input on 'Mind Of A Mute' - it's mystical intro descending into a Heavy Metal riff to die for, with the versatile voice of Buchanan sounding very reminiscent of the good old days of Scott Stapp. Would love to see that one live, as I would the next track 'Morals' - which again keeps Freddie's spirit alive and kicking. The good news is that on this Special Edition you also get a live version of 'Morals' plus, to finish off with, two exclusive brand-new studio tracks. Not be confused with Heaven's Basement's firm favourite 'Fire Fire', 'Fire In The Field' was actually the 'B' side of the aforementioned single 'All The Things You've Said And Done'. Still sounding fresh and ace, Aaron strains those fiery vocal chords once again as his sibling gives Slash a run for his money with an outstanding guitar solo. We finally reach 'Undertow', which is real virgin territory, but is thankfully not out of place with the quality that has preceded it. With its pounding beat plus great vocal and guitar harmonies, it definitely complements the original album, and is affirmation, if you needed it, that Aaron Buchanan And The Cult Classics is still very much in business." British Rock band Aaron Buchanan And The Cult Classics recently signed to Listenable Records and to celebrate, the band and the label release a Special Edition of their acclaimed album ‘The Man With Stars On His Knees’ today, featuring five brand new bonus tracks.

Today's Track Of The Day is Saint Apache's video for 'Amongst Vultures': another razor-sharp, hard-hitting, high-octane track from the up-and-coming, politically-committed band. The track bristles with hardcore drive and edge, with the fast-paced track taken from their 4-track EP 'Black Days', which is due to be released this Friday. It shares the limelight with 'The Shameful', 'Strive to Survive' and 'Tory Man', their material displaying their energy, anger and conviction, not to mention their skilled musicianship and trademark, full-frontal, never-giving-it-less-than-100% performance. Thom Meredith’s raw, super-charged vocals front the song, with Adam Oarton’s drums pounding a powerful, primal beat whilst Leo Burdett’s lead guitar and Ross Towner’s powerful bass drive the music and message home with vigour and verve.

Today's Video Of The Day is Circu5 – the project of multi-instrumentalist Steve Tilling (TC&I) – which is now a full band and hitting the road in a series of shows.
