Desperate Measures / Split Dogs / Dead Fun, London Water Rats, 6th Nov 2024

By Alex Goose

Of course, such antics wouldn’t be half as entertaining without decent tunes to back them up, but luckily, Dead Fun have plenty; mixing punk rock with plenty of rock n’ roll swagger on the likes of ‘Fuel To Burn’ and ‘Run Run Run’. Split Dogs Continue Reading

Skrapper do a fine job of blasting away our post-work blues. Brighton crossover thrash crew RAD are clearly determined to get the party started - their frontman is Continue Reading

By Alex Goose
Noopinion (yep, it’s one word!) are from Germany, and after just over a decade’s hiatus, they’ve returned with ‘Revolt And Resolve’ - album number six. The band aren’t shy about showing their love for the skate-punk sound that proved so popular around the turn of the millennium.
