Gig review: Big Special at Rescue Rooms

Black Country duo Big Special are one of those bands that is so much more than the sum of its parts, punching well above their weight in many different ways. Their rise has been rapid, and their new album charts that journey. We caught them at Rescue Rooms, along with two other unique duos...

Gig review: Mogwai at Rock City

Eleven studio albums, nine live albums, with nearly as many film scores, composed over the course of 30 years. A discography this plentiful is enough to be the envy of most well-established bands. Mogwai, the owners of said discography, have achieved this through a combination of creative vision, technical virtuosity and instrumental skill to become one of the metaphorical heads on the “Mount Rushmore” of post-rock. The Scottish band’s delve into the genre has seen them appeal to an expanding fan base, evidenced by the acclaim of their 2021 album As the Love Continues… which went to #1 in the album charts and earned them a Mercury prize nomination...

Local band Marvin’s Revenge and honorary local Lizzie Esau provided solid support - and proof that rainy Thursdays can still be the best nights out…

Gig review: Fozzy at Rock City

The love affair between Chris Jericho-fronted metal outfit Fozzy and Nottingham is one almost as old as the band itself. From their first UK show back in 2005 to their biggest ever headline show in 2024, Nottingham has been there through many of the band’s career highs. It seems only fitting then that on the eve of Valentine’s Day, Fozzy once again returned to Rock City, this time to celebrate their 25 years together as a band…
