Just realised that today is our second birthday. Genuinely can't believe how much we've grown. Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to read what we do.
Yesterday we had the most readers of the website in a single day since we launched in June 2020. Thank you for taking the time to read what we write and thank you to all the staff who work hard to produce great content.

I've seen a few tweets today about pet hates that music bloggers have. Here's ours:
1. Bands that follow you (& you them) yet don't send their new music for coverage.
2. Bands that DM new music/their links but don't drop a follow (we follow the vast majority back)
That's it.
We've got some cracking bands booked in over the next few months and wait until you see this year's All-Dayer line-up (Sat Oct 1st, save the date!)
- all at O'Rileys in
#Hull
We were three years old yesterday. Thank you dear reader for reading us and all of our contributers for their top notch writing. It's a bit mad to see how much things have grown.
I'm excited to announce that
@MildManneredMax
has joined our writing staff. I've been a fan of his work for a while now & he will be writing a monthly featured article going forward. The website launches this Monday!
