“The Nordic Descent” tour must be carrying in its wake a touch of that famous Nordic climate as the UK is treated to its one light dusting of snow for the year. And of course as is tradition, once the first flakes touch ground all roads are rendered seemingly unusable which means our journey to the venue is inevitably delayed, throw in some minor confusion with passes on the door and we are unfortunately only able to catch the tail end of tonight’s opening act.Continue reading

CONCERT REVIEW: Boris – Starcrawler Live at Racket NYC
10.23.24 – Racket NYC
This was a doozy of a weeknight show in Manhattan and we were gifted with over an hour of Boris and their amplified wall of sound. It’s crazy to think that it has been since 2001 since we haven’t gotten at least one yearly release from Boris in some form and this year’s Hello There collab (with Coaltar of the Deepers), live performance of Fade, and 2 years later, and Noise. All these releases dropping this year continue to prove how prolific of a band they are.
CONCERT REVIEW: King Diamond – Overkill – Night Demon Live at The Kings Theater

This time the tour took them to Irving Plaza in New York City and Ghost Cult was there to join in the fun. Continue reading
