CD:”Sounds Like…” by Adam Scholey

on July 11th, 2012 at 13:43
Posted In: CD, Reviews, Ross

Adam Scholey – Former Sonority of a Home Studio 2005-2012 album Review When this 20 track “compendium” came my way I decided to give it a good few listens, knowing Adam as I do from local luminaries Damnation Alley, and more recently the frankly underrated Voice of Reason. Putting your material “out there” so to […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

EP: “I’m Sure Someone Mentioned A Cheque” by Midday Committee

on July 11th, 2012 at 13:21
Posted In: CD, Reviews, George

The first thing you need to know about Midday Committee is that they are “hard working”, as the four piece pop punk band from Portsmouth have gained a hearty following after a mere year and a half as a band. Their first EP “Nice Kids, Bad Judge of Character!” will definitely be named as a […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Video: “Going Down” By Western Sand

Posted In: Reviews, DanO, Preview

Of all of the bands gigging around Bournemouth at the moment, one of the best and one that has bags of potential is the Hard/Southern Rock outfit called Western Sand. Not only are they an extremely likeable bunch but they produce some kick ass classic rock riffage and put on a killer live show!

Ataraxis Vibration EP review

on July 8th, 2012 at 14:00
Posted In: CD, Reviews, Ross

The debut EP by interestingly named Bath Rockers Ataraxis Vibration has fallen into the hands of Rock Regeneration-so what do we think? Opening with “Nothing Lasts Forever” is a good start (to this reviewer), as it doesn’t pack the obvious “Hendrix-isms” of other songs on here.

CD: “Sanguine” by Sanguine

on July 7th, 2012 at 22:36
Posted In: CD, Reviews, DanO

Wow, having been listening to a ton of Doom Metal recently its mega refreshing to have an album like this land on my desk. Sanguine are a female fronted four-piece from the Southwest and are currently kicking up a ruckus on the UK music scene. Having had a slot on the Jagermeister stage at this […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Blink 182/All American Rejects/The Blackout

on July 7th, 2012 at 22:09
Posted In: Reviews, George, Gigs

Bournemouth International Centre It would be a fairly valid comment to say that tonight’s show at the BIC has been the most anticipated event Bournemouth will see this year. As I approached the venue it was obvious who’s in town; pop punk pioneers and worldwide icons, Blink 182. As the queue to enter the Windsor […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

CD: “More Than Ever” By The Blues Machine

on July 6th, 2012 at 20:23
Posted In: CD, Mike

It seems as though my immune system has failed me. Bedridden for the second time in a week, and I’m not enjoying it. I’ve tried sleep, food, water and antibiotics, and yet I’m still feeling awful… although I may be over exaggerating to my family, somehow it’s a bit far fetched that I have ebola […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

CD: “Trials” by Mutiny On The Bounty

on July 6th, 2012 at 19:59
Posted In: CD, Preview

Instead of following the usual schematic of band bios let’s ask the opinion of someone experienced, Matt Bayles for example. He not only produced “Trials”, the second album of MUTINY ON THE BOUNTY, but also records by ISIS, MASTODON, RUSSIAN CIRCLES, THESE ARMS ARE SNAKES, THE FALL OF TROY or BOTCH. We can then legitimately […] ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Chaplins, Cellar Bar, Boscombe Thursday night and once again Chaplin’s, Cellar Bar bar beckons for a night of top quality music hosted by Rubber Soul’s Conrad Bar. Tonight there are three bands to squeeze in to the 2 and a half hour weekly slot, all with something very different to offer.
