Hailing from the mystical land of Brighton, UK, THE DEAD RED LIPS have shown that they're ones to watch, blending old school metal and doom with a high octane result.

Alt rock trio GUNS FOR GIRLS have recently released their latest EP, "Guilty Pleasures". The four track EP sees the band channel a variety of influences, resulting in a grungy, alt-rock tinged final product. Following the release of the EP, I spoke to the band about the tracks and what went into them.

Reignited with a fresh lineup at the start of the year, UK southern rockers SMOKE OVER ELSEWHERE have become unstoppable. New release "I Told You So" joins previous tracks as a strong single, and the band are now several dates into their first headline tour.
