Some photos from Coda’s monthly metal night, presented by Impious Spirit. Featuring sets from Reverent Son (Ironmonger was a beast of a track from them!), Unit 33 and Dirty Donations. A good night of hard rock and metal.

Peter Hook & The Light – Colchester Arts Centre, 08/04/2022
I’ll start with the shameful comment – I’ve never really listened to that much Joy Division or New Order. Not necessarily because I don’t enjoy it just I’ve heard “the hits” and never felt compelled to research any further. It’s time to correct that, diving in at the deep end with this mammoth two set…

The stage is filled with interactive artefacts created around the musical theme, with some of…

Review/Gallery: Biffy Clyro, Bob Vylan – Cambridge Corn Exchange, 30/10/2021
I’m not sure there’s ever been a more literal example of the term “warm up band” than Bob Vylan. The two piece bring to the Corn Exchange more energy than I can remember seeing in a support band in a long time – by the time the first track is in full flow, vocalist Bobby…
