- Masters Of Their Universe 20/10/17
"Inglorious are one of those lucky bands that have the talent, but also have the support of the likes of Planet Rock too. It’s tough for bands to make a name for themselves out there these days, despite the flourishing live music scene. But Inglorious have jumped on the jet propelled roller coaster and are heading for the heavens, like the flying god of thunder himself. It’s where their destiny lies. They are masters of their universe." That was Mother's take on Inglorious at Islington Assembly Hall in May and the 2016 WRC Best Rock Performance award winners return to London's Electric Ballroom in Camden tonight.

Following a brilliant night of personal anecdotes from the Iron Maiden frontman, everyone went home happy clutching their own signed copies of Bruce's book! Indeed, with just under one month to go to Wrinklystock 6, we even managed to bump into Replicants guitarist Steve Hesmondhalgh on the way out - so watch out for news of their charity song auction over the next few days.
- Academy Hill 19/10/17
"This album shows an artist at the top of his game. Steve Hill is clearly in his element as a solo artist and one-man band, inviting listeners into a world of musical madness in the form of Blues and Rock ‘n’ Roll. Hill undertakes a 27-date UK tour when he supports Wishbone Ash in October and November including London’s O2 Academy, Islington on Thursday 19th October. Do not miss this definition of a one-man power trio!" That was part of our Steve Hill ‘Solo Recordings: Volume 3’ album review and indeed tonight we will be there to see Steve supporting Andy Powell's Wishbone Ash (Track Of The Day) with his thirty minute set at 8pm.
- JW Jones Album Review 18/10/17
"It's a collection of twelve songs and one instrumental which seems to be divided into three sections. The first comprises of the opening five songs, and its all out Blues,covering the usual bad luck, heartache and pain themes, and although at various points you do think you've heard this all this before, the hooks of opening track 'Price You Pay' along with the title track, followed by 'Murder In My Heart For The Judge', are all instant winners." Read the whole of Phil C.'s JW Jones 'High Temperature' CD review that's due to be released this Friday here plus check out today's Video Of The Day.
- Focus On 100 Club 18/10/17
"By definition, a fifty minute set of Prog means five or six songs at most! So imagine my delight as we sat down in the afternoon sun towards the back of a packed Prog In The Park Stage as Menno Gootjes launched into, in my opinion, one of the great guitar solos of all time on 'Eruption' from 'Focus II/Moving Waves' - absolutely bliss. A bit like Trigger's broom, the part's have changed over the year's but the original heartbeat of Thijs van Leer on organ/flute and Pierre van der Linden on drums is still alive and kicking as evidenced on their classics 'Sylvia' and 'Hocus Pocus' but now with Udo Pannekeet on bass guitar replacing Van Leer's stepson Bobby Jacobs. Make sure you see the real deal in its entirety at London's 100 Club on Wednesday 18th October." And sure enough, following our review at this year's Ramblin' Man Fair, Focus (pictured at The Underworld last year) return to London and the iconic 100 Club tonight!

- Bad Flowers At The Lexington Tonight 16/10/17
The Bad Flowers, recently released their new single 'Thunder Child' which is today's Video Of The Day. To support the release of 'TC', the 3-piece continue their UK tour supporting The Picturebooks at London's The Lexington tonight. The Bad Flowers, formed from the depths of the Black Country in 2014, comprise of lead vocalist and guitarist, Tom Leighton, whose signature riffs, fuzz emotive guitar and pure vocals have distinctive sound unlike anybody else. Bassist Dale Tonks provides a deep heavy groove and tasty bass runs that underpins Karl Selickis' chest pumping drums and impeccable rhythmic feel. We first caught the guys at the O2 Islington Academy supporting Crobot and Dirty Thrills in June last year - a breakthrough year as The Flowers left local venues in a wake of blood, sweat and ringing ears when they opened for Canadian rockers The Sheepdogs in Birmingham, then onward to extensive tours up and down the UK to packed venues with Jared James Nichols and Scorpion Child, plus an appearance at Hard Rock Hell. Their highly anticipated debut album, titled 'Starting Gun', is set for release in early 2018.
