Review: The Gems – Year of the Snake Napalm Records (March 13th, 2026) Reviewer – Jason Hopper Having risen from the ashes of their group departure from Thundermother, The Gems are back with their sophomore release, ‘Year of the Snake‘. Their debut album ‘Pheonix‘ (review here) was terrific and adhered close to the sound of their […]
Review: Gotthard – More Stereo Crush Reigning Phoenix Music (March 13th, 2026) Reviewer – Jason Hopper 2025’s ‘Stereo Crush‘ (review here) was a highlight of that year. It was the first Gotthard album that I rated as comparable to the albums of the Steve Lee era. With word that the band was set to release […]
Review: Massive Wagons – Live At The Great Hall Earache Records (March 27th, 2026) Reviewer – Jason Hopper Back around ten years ago, I was listening to Live and Loud on Platinum Rock Radio when I came across two absolute banger tracks: ‘Nails’ and ‘Fee Fi Fo Fum’ by the band Massive Wagons. I bought […]
Born in Stockholm in 1983, Glorious Bankrobbers blasted onto the Scandinavian rock scene with their 1984 debut, produced by none other than Kee Marcello (Easy Action/Europe).

Review: Rozario – Northern Crusaders Pride & Joy Music (February 20th, 2026) Reviewer – Jason Hopper New to the scene Norwegian rockers Rozario return after releasing their debut album ‘To The Gods We Swear‘ in 2023. That album came across my radar due to the involvement of their producer, Trond Holter. For those not in […]
Review: Stargazer – Trouble (Bonus Single) Mighty Music (January 9th, 2026) Reviewer – David Mark Pearce Being an artist myself, you write and write as much as you can for an album that you’ll hopefully eventually release and when you have a certain amount of songs, then comes the agonising decision, choosing what goes on […]
Review: Def Leppard – Diamond Star Heroes – Live From Sheffield Mercury Studios (November 21st, 2025) Reviewer – Jason Hopper Def Leppard are one of the biggest bands in the world to avoid releasing an official live album (not counting their ‘In The Round…‘ concert video) until well into their fourth decade as a band. […]
Review: The Hot One Two – Virtues Self Release (October 10th, 2025) Reviewer – Phil Rozier Let me tell you something, kids: I’ve been rocking since cassette tapes tangled like spaghetti and MTV actually played music. I had an older brother that drove an Escort XR3 (flash!), and the rewind button on the tape player used […]
