The new Beneath Utopia album, Legacy, is now on Bandcamp, it would be great if everyone could give it a listen! If you think you know what Beneath Utopia sound like, there may be a few surprises.... beneathutopia.bandcamp.com/album/legacy

A bunch of videos of Machine Head at Glasgow Academy and Manchester Victoria Warehouse are up here if anyone is so inclined youtu.be/-upAA8s1KcU?si…

And another souvenir plectrum for the collection.

Second night seeing Machine Head, this time at Manchester Victoria Warehouse, just the right amount of great setlist changes mixed in with the classics everyone wants to hear. And bigger stage meant more pyro!

Also bonus swag, one played.

Machine Head were phenomenal last night at Glasgow Academy, who needs support bands when you can just take the whole night on on your own? Same again tonight in Manchester?

A few videos of The Charlatans at Newcastle City Hall last night are now up here youtu.be/oUiI5QaDJJU?si…

The Charlatans at Newcastle City Hall last night, a great mixture of the old hits and the new songs which were less familiar to me, but it's much easier to go along for the ride with a frontman who enjoys himself as much as Tim Burgess.

James were a triumph at Leeds Arena last night. And yes, there was a storm outside....

A few (slightly wonky) videos of James at Leeds Arena last night are up here: youtu.be/4ZBXHsiyU5E?si…

Videos of Kreator, Carcass, Exodus and Nails from Glasgow Academy last night are up here if anyone's interested youtu.be/7PUD5__mWLE?si…

Exodus and Nails at Glasgow Academy last night. Got not one, but TWO Exodus plectrums too, one from the hand of Gary Holt himself.

After miserable queuing weather, Kreator, Carcass, Exodus and Nails all warmed things up nicely at Glasgow Academy last night.

@Pyfbrown So they weren't very close to you?

Videos of Manics at the Royal Albert Hall last night are up here if anyone wants to see them/relive them (but further away, pun intended) youtu.be/XoTH7upp-KI?si…
