Pitchfork London has been a unique event in the festival circuit. A City festival situated over a week in the heart of London; it has seen an expert curation of artists from around the world – the most talented rising stars, big names and end-of-year list favourites. Already this past …
Rally festival is a new spot on the festival circuit, permanently cursed to take place on the one wet day in August – based in the small Southwark park, its two main stages and two DJ venues provide a welcome respite from those brave enough to not only venture down in …
Arctangent celebrated its tenth anniversary in style with a wonderful, four-day celebration of post-rock and instrumental, probably the one festival where you could go an entire day, an entire weekend, and see purely instrumental bands if you wanted to. Its uniqueness and carefully curated, wonderfully diverse lineup make the festival in …
Welcome to Manchester, let’s be having you. For three days a collection of metal, prog rock, jazz and other genres including unique geeza-core were assembled in the 02 Victoria Warehouse, a few minutes’ walk away from the iconic Old Trafford Stadium, for a two-stage weekender of chaos inside a sweltering …
Bruce Springsteen walks up on stage at Wembley Stadium and goes straight into song. There is no introduction because there needs no introduction, he is the Boss, and the Boss is magic – over fifty years of making some of the foremost rock and roll music, he comes out and debuts …
Radar Festival is an award-winning, prog-rock festival based out of Manchester, United Kingdom, spanning three nights. Across the Friday-Saturday-Sunday weekend for the heavy fans, there’s a treat to be had here no matter where you look – situated in the heart of the northern city, it’s a fixture to be …
And we have the ending of The Acolyte, in a style that mostly worked I think. The big mysteries were revealed in the penultimate episode so there wasn’t much left for the show to wrap up other than complete the changing of the guard, Mae to the Jedi and Osha …
2000trees is a small, award winning 15,000 capacity music festival in Cotsworld Hills, England. 3 nights of a camping-only music festival with no signal across the entire site, no WiFi provided, meant a truly communal experience – I only attended the Saturday, the final day of the event, but still …
There are bands that people associate with the UK that aren’t actually British, and there are The Killers; from Fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada. Modeling their style after British pop like Oasis and Pulp, bringing Smiths legend Johnny Marr and Pet Shop Boys out at Glastonbury on past shows; I got …
The Acolyte takes us on a role reversal of an episode in Teach/Corrupt as it embraces Osha and Mae’s switch in personality and character. Mae is now with Sol; grieving for the loss of his team at the hands of the Sith, and his Padawan Jecki who got slaughtered in …
Ripley is the latest adaptation of Talented Mr. Ripley, this time starring Andrew Scott in the lead role; as Tom Ripley, a man who is introduced to Dickie Greenleaf’s leisurely lifestyle and quickly gets under his skin and eventually kills him – taking over his identity in a bid to become Greenleaf. It’s a queer …
Four episodes into The Acolyte and it has attracted the worst kinds of hate for all the wrong reasons. Stupid nitpicking comments about fire in space, an ongoing series that hasn’t revealed its mystery, and now we have a flying Sith lord that people are mad about – if anything, it shows …
The Acolyte episode three, Destiny, takes things back to the past and the childhood of Mae and Osha and looks at how the tragic incident that consumed their family and separated them, driving them apart – how it happened. It’s brutal; Mae’s rage and anger at Osha betraying their trust to …
Primavera Sound Barcelona was my first solo international travel experience and my first international festival – and what a momentous, once-in-a-lifetime experience it was. Two birds with one stone, and what a way to start things off when it’s a 6-6 festival, with the music sometimes starting as early as …
The Acolyte is the latest Star Wars show to arrive on the back of something of a mixed reception for the franchise of late, with underwhelming ventures for Ahsoka and the latest season of The Mandalorian, but with stellar outings for Andor. Thankfully, The Acolyte is more in the Andor …
