Since exploding out onto the scene like a tornado back in 2017, Midnite City have taken on the world, grabbed the tired music scene by the scruff of its neck, injected passion, fun, melody, and colour back into it, and climbed to the top of the tree to be crowned the true kings of Hair Metal.

Blacklist Union deliver Slay the Dragon, their explosive sixth studio album and the highly anticipated follow-up to Letters from the Psych Ward, which earned critical acclaim and over two million streams. Produced by Christopher Johnson (Evanescence, Scott Weiland, Josh Todd), the album perfectly encapsulates the band's signature blend of Stone Temple Pilots’ grit, Guns N’ Roses’ swagger, Malfunkshun’s otherworldly vibe, and The Cult’s anthemic power.

We all have our ultimate heroes; Alice Cooper is mine, has been since the seventies, in all his incarnations, all eras… even the so-called blackout period.

It’s been a few years since I saw FM in Bristol, and they’ve shifted sideways from playing on a boat (Thekla) to one of the most loved smallish venues in the UK, which is never a bad thing. The Fleece & Firkin may have a few poles that get in your way but also hold up the roof, but it’s usually a great place to watch a band, so I’m looking forward to this one.

The last time The Dead Daisies played The Picturedrome I made the mistake of not purchasing my ticket early enough. I was not about to make the same mistake twice, especially with two impressive support bands added to the bill. It was a wise decision as once again it was sellout at the venue in the picturesque market town in West Yorkshire.

Powerhill hail from Switzerland and create self- proclaimed Farm Metal! These Hard Rockers don’t take themselves too seriously and are proud flag waving Gen X’ers who are lovers of the eighties Rock scene – which is abundantly clear in their music.
