A solid display of metalcore prowess that posits Australia as an elite birthplace of this genre. The record fulfils what the title conveys: a compendium of tracks that are lyrically and aurally brutal. Initial standouts: Vagabond & Martyr (Waves) ⚡ open.spotify.com/album/415LpbIn…

How to Nu-Metal in 30 seconds

This one embodies the classic modern rock sound that echoes the likes of Deaf Havana & Young Guns; some Starsailor and Keane pop power influence mixed in. Almost makes me proud to be British (it takes a lot nowadays). Shame these guys broke up. 🌊 #MWE open.spotify.com/album/281202AP…

Theatrical, unapologetic, genre-bending metal. Blood & Glitter: The Musical should be their next project. These guys are up for representing Germany in Eurovision this year with the title track which I hope they win ✨ #MWE open.spotify.com/album/0U6GggRI…

Wanted to start with an album that just kicks off. Endless energy and credence that translates into a pure potpourri of punk. Excited to be engulfed in a storm of noise in a tiny bar this Friday with these guys 🎸#MWE open.spotify.com/album/0dOCttwq…

@TFordyy96 YES I got that all the time, there was always someone else who was a *bit* better that they hired. Absolutely it will, but obv you have every right to be frustrated and take breaks if you need to, good luck 🍀

@rlhowa Yeah, that's the main thing I'm experiencing; "You're a strong candidate BUT...*insert jargon*". Thank you, I'm still remaining optimistic despite the frustration, one day I know all this will pay off.

Getting real tired and angry of job rejections now. It's beyond a joke.

@TFordyy96 it didn’t have to be this way!! (2/2)

@TFordyy96 I worked in hospitality too and was desperate to get out so I 100% back the decision to quit regardless, I did the same. Exactly, you can have all the right qualifications and skills and it’s still so brutal. It will happen though for you at some point, just wish (1/2)

@TFordyy96 I really feel this so much, it’s brutal. I had an absolute mare last year applying for jobs whilst stuck in one that I hated. It’s insane that you basically have to rely on other people liking you and giving you a chance to get your own life on track

I've put in over 450 applications in for a variety of roles over the last couple of years and its getting to the point where I can't see the point in bothering anymore but I desperately want to work and get my life properly on track.

We're looking for a driver preferably that already has a van to drive a uk+eu tour from 28/04 to 17/05 If you want to join the slice crew send a message and we'll have a chat! please share if possible as we want to get this sorted out asap

@readdork Wish this had happened in Leeds 🥲

"We're doing our best work, so I don't mind doing something nostalgic" - Matty Healy. And now Talk. The 1975 are definitely playing their self-titled debut in full tonight. Blimey.

And now Sex. So this is happening, then.

I have felt insecure about my career/life path for a long time and just from writing that last tweet after not writing about music for ages, I instantly feel a shift - that must mean I’m choosing the right thing for me? ✨

told my lyft driver i was a journalist he goes “be careful! it’s dangerous telling the truth these days.” then he asked what i wrote about, i said music and movies and he went “ohhhhhh nevermind you’re fine.”

I would absolutely inhale a longread about what happened to Love, Angel, Music and Baby, the quartet of Japanese girls Gwen Stefani took everywhere to launch her solo career.

@Sophi33_ Absolute CHOON
