However the energy packed into the room tonight blows all [...]

On a mild Wednesday night in Glasgow, is there a better way to spend an evening than chatting to up and coming metal bands? I don’t think so, so it was little surprise that I found myself backstage at Glasgow’s O2 ABC2 catching up with the instantly likeable boys from Demoraliser. Scroll down and check [...]
Shortly before taking to the stage in Glasgow, Hatebreed’s Frank Novinec took time out from his day to talk to us here at Planetmosh. The guitarist talked to us about the latest album “The Divinity of Purpose“, touring plans and how good it is to be in a crossover band.
Due to my having to work tonight, I approached the venue a mere 5 minutes before the doors open, so the line is stretching away from the door, around the corner and up the hill clearly this show is highly anticipated by the locals. Unfortunately by the time I’ve interviewed Devildriver guitarist Jeff Kendrick (listen here)and then [...]
Before storming the stage at Glasgow’s O2 ABC I caught up with Devildriver’s guitarist Jeff Kendrick, who took time out to discuss recording the new album, touring and amongst other things how the band has evolved and survived over the last 10 + years.

Glasgow based rockers Logan enjoyed moderate success in a few years ago including opening for Bon Jovi in front of 40,o00 fans at Hampden Park in Glasgow and touring Europe supporting Alter Bridge, before entering a seemingly endless hiatus at the end of 2010. During the downtime Al & Steve Reilly along with Iain Stratton [...]
It’s not very often the word dynasty is used in metal, however this tour could well herald the start of the Cavalera metal dynasty as Max Cavalera brings Soulfly back to the UK with support provided by two of his sons bands – Zyon & Igor Jr’s Lody Kong and Richie’s Incite. Unfortunately due to prior [...]
I had the pleasure of interviewing Richie Cavalera, before he laid waste to Glasgow’s Classic Grand. Richie is son of metal legend Max Cavalera and lead singer with up and coming band Incite. He took time out from his busy schedule to chat to us about his new album ‘All Out War’, touring with his [...]
