  • Interview: This Is the End? They're Only Getting Started - In Conversation with Melrose Avenue
    How to take over the world – a Melrose Avenue story.
    It all just keeps getting bigger, doesn’t it? The Sydney alt-rockers are absolutely soaring, selling out venues around the world, including every single date on their massive UK and European tour which began in London on November 13th.
    There, the band debuted their latest track, the achingly beautiful ‘This Is the End’. A track we described as:
    It really doesn’t get more emotional than this, and so much of that emotion comes from the authenticity of it all. Just vocals and guitar, super simple, with all the focus being on Vlado’s voice and words. It’s beautiful, and having seen it performed live, it has even more power in that environment too.
    Yes, we were there for the London show, and you can read the review of that show here: https://www.gbhbl.com/live-review-melrose-avenue-at-the-dome-london-13-11-25/
    The day before the show, the foursome were in London and we sat down with them to talk all things Melrose Avenue. The past, present, and future. For fun, we also challenged them with a special London-based quiz.

  • Interview: In the Forest Singing Sorrowless - In Conversation with Joy Shannon
    Joy Shannon is an Irish harpist and singer whose ethereal and haunting songs come from depths of Irish folklore. Her melodies evoke images of witch’s lairs in dark woods or the distant echoes of the voices of spirits in the ancient places of the Irish countryside.
    Joy Shannon’s newest album release In the Forest Singing Sorrowless' is inspired by author J.R.R. Tolkien’s poetry, with Shannon’s original music accompanying Tolkien’s wonderful words. Shannon decided to create this album during a personally challenging year, when she went through medical treatments for breast cancer. Tolkien’s works have always been an inspiration for Shannon, especially to have hope and purpose at the darkest times, so the recording of this album carried her through a difficult time. The resulting album is a mystical dream-walk through Tolkien’s landscapes, through the magical lens of Shannon’s intimate harp and vocals.
    This album, the story of its release, the journey that Joy Shannon has been on to make it a reality, the incredible collaborations, and so much more, is what we discuss in this interview.

  • Interview: In Pursuit of Dreams - The Re-Release of Confess' Seminal Second Album
    2025 has been an incredible year for Iranian-Norwegian metallers Confess. Back in January, they released stunning new album, ‘Destination Addiction’, which was produced by frontman Nikan Khosravi, mixed and mastered by Grammy-nominated Alberto De Icaza (Amon Amarth, Clutch, Miss May I, Dead Cross, Upon A Burning Body) and featured performances from extreme metal luminaries George Kollias (Nile) and Marzi Montazeri (ex-Phil Anselmo and Illegals, ex-Superjoint Ritual, ex-Exhorder, Heavy As Texas).
    Then, in September, the band had their story featured in a full episode as part of the HULU show ‘Into the Void: Life, Death & Heavy Metal’. Now, finishing the year off in style, the band are re-releasing their seminal second album ‘In Pursuit of Dreams’ on November 7th, 2025.
    Seminal, because it was the last record they dropped while still in Iran, and in frontman Nikan Khosravi’s own words has become:
    A lightning rod for rebellion, defiance, and unapologetic expression.
    This album, its importance, the decision to re-release it, and much more, is discussed in our interview with Nikan.

  • Interview: Pure Northern Rage - Catching Up With Rituals
    Rising swiftly through the ranks of modern metal, Rituals are back with their brand-new EP, ‘Hope in Hatred’, which boasts the Newcastle quartet's most aggressive and cohesive release to date. Armed with a feature from the singer of UK mainstays, Bury Tomorrow's own Tom Prendergast. The five-track record is an onslaught of riffs, monolithic vocals and pure Northern rage.

  • Interview: Talking ArmaHeaven with Smash Into Pieces' Vocalist Chris Adam Hedman Sörbye
    Swedish rock heavyweights Smash Into Pieces are set to unleash their most ambitious album to date, ‘ArmaHeaven’, arriving October 31st, 2025.
    Picking up where their previous album Ghost Code left off, the new chapter throws listeners into a dystopian future where Ghostis, now unstoppable, seizes control of the world. As the resistance falls, a new force emerges: an AI-driven entity that sparks an all-out digital war for dominance. The clash escalates into global catastrophe, exploring themes of power, survival, and rebirth. Will humanity find salvation, or will the machines consume themselves in a final great reset?
    Constantly setting rock trends, Smash into Pieces return with, arguably, their biggest record to date. Not only because it tells an elaborate story with exciting twists and turns, but because they express this story in anthemic fashion. Come for the rocking heaviness, melodic potency, and chorus-driven delights, but stay for the detail. That’s a simple summation of ArmaHeaven.
    Read the full review here: https://www.gbhbl.com/album-review-smash-into-pieces-armaheaven-the-orchard/
    In this interview, we had the pleasure of speaking with Smash into Pieces vocalist Chris Adam Hedman Sörbye. Learning more about the album’s creative process, the journey to this release that Smash into Pieces have been on, their evolution, AI and its place in music, and so much more.

  • Interview: Blood Covenant - The Mighty Return of Adept with Vocalist Robert Ljung
    Swedish metalcore powerhouse Adept rise again, ushering in a fierce new era with their long-awaited fifth studio album, Blood Covenant, out October 24, 2025, via Napalm Records. Marking a bold new era after nearly a decade of silence, Blood Covenant captures the band at their most intense, dynamic, and emotionally resonant to date across eleven tightly crafted tracks.
    It’s so exciting to have Adept back, and not only does ‘Blood Covenant’ live up to the iconic metalcore band’s status, but it pushes forward, offering fresh ideas and showcasing undeniable creative spirit. Is it the best Adept album to date? That’s a tough call, but it’s certainly impressive that it’s even in the conversation.
    We’re not the only ones excited about Adept’s return either, as vocalist Robert Ljung spoke to us and shared a ton of detail about their journey to this point. We also dug into the guts of the album’s creative period, seeing fans embrace the return of Adept with gusto, bringing the new songs to the live stage, and so much more.

  • Interview: World Maker - Psychonaut's Unique New Record with Vocalist/Guitarist Stefan De Graef
    Belgian psychedelic post-metal masters Psychonaut return with their triumphant new album World Maker, released 24th October via Pelagic Records.
    This record takes the form of life lessons for guitarist/vocalist Stefan De Graef son, who at the time of album writing, learned he was to be a father. There’s very little as life changing as that, and although misery would follow not long after the birth of De Graef’s son as the devastating news that both his own father and Psychonaut bassist/vocalist Thomas Michiels’ father had been diagnosed with advanced cancers, the record is still focused on the positive experience of becoming a dad. It doesn’t matter if you can relate or not, you’ll be able to understand the feeling in this record, regardless.
    Psychonaut may never make an album quite like this again, that is how unique an effort it is, but long-term fans won’t be turned off by it either as so much of what makes them who they are is present. It’s the most contemporary the band has sounded, and with that, comes something truly unforgettable.
    Read the full album review here: https://www.gbhbl.com/album-review-psychonaut-world-maker-pelagic-records/
    We spoke to vocalist/guitarist Stefan De Graef about ‘World Maker’ and its unique place in the Psychonaut catalogue. We talk about the vision, how life dictated the album direction, the profound joy that permeates so much of the record, moving forward following immense personal change, and so much more.

  • Interview: Keep It Quiet - Honest and Open - The Greyhaven Way with Vocalist Brent Mills
    When somebody divulges a secret, you don’t just hear it; you carry it with you.
    Making you privy to intimate thoughts and feelings, this exchange represents the highest level of trust. Greyhaven tap into the sound of truths unleashed - messy in its disjointed and extreme edges, magnetic in its entrancing and enigmatic melodies, and massive in its emotional outpour. The Louisville, KY band - Brent Mills [vocals], Nick Spencer [guitar], Johnny Muench [bass], and Ethan Spray [drums] - sonically and personally lay everything on the table with their third full-length album, Keep It Quiet.
    Out now via Solid State Records, the open and honest album is the topic of conversation in this interview with vocalist Brent Mills. We really dig into the album, but also have some fun talking about tour life, the satisfaction that comes from connecting with people, and so much more.

  • Interview: Spit and Fire - Talking with Mercedes Lander (Drums) of Kittie
    Canadian heavy music pioneers Kittie marked a quarter-century milestone with the release of ‘Spit XXV’, a four-track EP celebrating the 25th anniversary of their gold-certified debut album. The collection features freshly re-recorded versions of ‘Brackish XXV’, ‘Charlotte XXV’, ‘Do You Think I’m A Whore XXV’ and the title track ‘Spit XXV’, all produced, once again, by Garth Richardson who helmed the original 1999 sessions at EMAC Studios.
    There’s nothing to complain about here, and these versions don’t replace the originals, so if you prefer them, have at it. However, for the rest of us, it’s a chance to drown in nostalgia and appreciate just how far this band has come. All hail Kittie.
    Read the full EP review here: https://www.gbhbl.com/ep-review-kittie-spit-xxv-sumerian-records/
    This EP comes as Kittie are enjoying a revival, of sorts, having released their album ‘Fire’ in June 2024, their first new album since 2011’s I’ve Failed You.
    Kittie aren’t trying to re-capture the fire of old, rather, they’re starting a brand-new one, and thanks to some really killer tracks, it promises to be one hell of an inferno.
    Read the full album review here: https://www.gbhbl.com/album-review-kittie-fire-sumerian-records/
    This revival, and the ride the band have been on since, is just one part of this interview, where we break Kittie down with drummer and founding member, Mercedes Lander. We look back at who Kittie was, look at who Kittie became, but we also look to the future too and look at who Kittie is now. As well as so much more.
