TW: flash/strobe lights in the video, mentions of sexual assault in the article. Kathleen Hanna once told Problem Patterns that if there was no backlash, then the band was not doing their job properly. So, before we continue with the review itself, let me put this additional trigger warning for all the gatekeepers that think […]
MoreBedsit is a strange beast. The first thing that hits you about the band is their powerful honesty. They don’t hide behind flowery words and PR hype. They will bare their very soul to you if they can, to show where they come from. They will even let you hear the early demos written on […]
MoreWhenever we write about the Queen of Gothtrap, Jade The Nighmare, the stats on our blog go sky high. We receive dozens of messages, likes, shares and hundreds of people read what we write.

MoreAshes, Ashes EP cover In September 2022 I had a pleasure to review a debut single by the Boston based quartet aptly named Yet To Bloom. “People Pleaser” turned out to be a maverick and I instantly fell in love with the band.

MoreLast week, an ex BBC Radio 1 DJ and the star of Radio X, Chris Moyles caused another controversy calling all unsigned acts “crap”. His words received well deserved condemnation from every corner of the music business, but they uncovered a sad truth – something that everybody knows of and nobody is wishing to talk […]
MoreEP cover The Birmingham music scene is a strange beast. The popular belief limits it to Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Duran Duran and UB 40. As if we were to forget that Brum is home to some truly inspiring acts past and present. Fuzzbox for starters not only wrote great pop songs but revolutionized the […]
MoreSingle cover – photo by Neil Anderson After charming everyone with her single “Ghost”, French poet and singer Manon returns with her best offering yet – glamorous and decadent homage to Tinsel Town. “Hollywood” is a truly unique composition: catchy, transcending musical genres and with hellishly clever lyrics. A perfect storm delivered by one of […]
