  • Interview: The Hara - Raw and Exposed: The Fallout
    Out on January 23rd, 2026, via Mascot Records, ‘The Fallout’ is the new album from the Manchester alt-rock band, The HARA.
    The HARA’s ability to fit neatly within the alternative rock scene, while having a wider sound base that draws from varied genres, has always made them special. Yet, there’s an argument that they’ve been missing a little something that could help transform them into giants of the scene. Something that nobody really knew they were missing until now. That something is authenticity.
    It does feel like they’ve reached a whole new level here, and all because it has the potential to connect with a broader audience.

    We spoke to the band about the new album, digging into the story of its creation and how THE HARA have naturally evolved to find themselves in a more open and honest place.

  • Interview: The Weight of Sound with John Robert Centorrino (Vocals) of Crystal Lake
    Japanese metalcore force Crystal Lake are back with their seventh studio album, The Weight of Sound, set for release on 23rd January 2026 via Century Media Records.
    The Weight of Sound is a strong and confident statement from Crystal Lake. It showcases a band that knows exactly who they are while still finding room to evolve. Across the album, they balance aggression, melody, and variety well. Intelligent guest appearances and sharp, focused songwriting help elevate the tracks. While some moments occasionally feel familiar, particularly within the conventions of metalcore, there are plenty of standout passages of brutality, catchiness, and genuine emotion. All of this is delivered with precision and intent. As a whole, The Weight of Sound stands as one of the most complete and engaging releases in Crystal Lake’s catalogue to date.

    A little before Christmas last year (2025), we spoke to vocalist John Robert Centorrino. Digging into the detail of the album, his creative experience, the work that has gone into making this version of Crystal Lake a reality, and much more.

  • Interview: The Evolving Face of Blackened Deathcore - Chase Wilson (Guitarist/Vocalist) of Ov Sulfur
    On January 16th, blackened deathcore quintet Ov Sulfur will release their sophomore album, ‘Endless’, via Century Media Records.
    Ov Sulfur have evolved beyond the constrictions of deathcore and in doing so, have refreshed the genre itself. All by utilising black metal and melody in clever ways. I’m not saying that Ov Sulfur have changed the deathcore game here, because they haven’t, but they’ve created something that does stand out.
    What it also shows is personality and authenticity, and across ten immense efforts, there’s a surprising emotive vein running through the music. There’s also some cinematic flair, dramatic melodies, blackened ferocity, and crushing breakdowns, because this is modern deathcore, none the less.
    Read the full review of the album here: https://www.gbhbl.com/album-review-ov-sulfur-endless-century-media-records/
    Shortly before Christmas, we spoke to guitarist/vocalist Chase Wilson about the new album and the journey that Ov Sulfur have been on to realise their vision.

  • Pupil Slicer - In the Flesh: An Interview with Kate (Vocals/Guitar) & Luke (Bass/Backing Vocals)
    UK mathcore heavyweights Pupil Slicer third album, ‘Fleshwork’, is out now via Prosthetic Records.
    A record that explores how society and the machinery behind it (political, financial etc.) dehumanises and devalues the most marginalised (the poor, disabled, queer, people of colour etc.) in a ‘sort of’ conceptual way. Fleshwork is Pupil Slicer at their most visceral, at their most honest, and in their rawest state. Delivering some of their most intense music to date, but also their most compelling as their evolution reaches an impressive apex.
    Evolved, experimental, intense, and emotional sounding, the detail within Fleshwork is what ensures it will be long lasting, but alongside that are more accessible elements that give the band’s sharp and complex mathcore edge a freshness.
    Check out our full review here: https://www.gbhbl.com/album-review-pupil-slicer-fleshwork-prosthetic-records/
    At the end of November 2025, Pupil Slicer embarked on a co-headline tour of the UK with LLNN (Worn Out as support). An incredible show that confirmed them as one of the best bands in the UK today.
    Pupil Slicer are more confident than ever on stage and a lot of the new tracks allows a certain amount of ‘flair’. What we’re seeing now is a performance, a more developed side to Pupil Slicer, and it’s making them all the more watchable from a casual perspective. Not the hardcore lot though, they’re far too busy pitting to the heavy mania to see anything happening on stage.
    A few hours before they hit the stage, I sat down (in The World's End) to chat with vocalist/guitarist Kate and bassist/backing vocalist Luke about the tour. Talking about the highs of the run, the fun they've had, the stronger connections they're forming with their fanbase, their favourite things of the year, a perfect Pupil Slicer Christmas, and more!

  • Interview: We Are Not the Same – The Evolving Face of 601 (George Miller/Nat Slater)
    601, the electronic duo capable of filling dancefloors and mosh pits equally, are back with their brand-new album, ‘We Are Not the Same’. Out now via SeeHear Recordings. Marrying the worlds of rock and electronica, but in a unique way and with varied collaborations.
    601 have one hell of a story, going all the way back to the early-90s, and that history is prevalent in what they do here. However, what really impresses is that this record still has a strong, contemporary sound and sounds fresh. Least of all because of 601’s interesting blend of styles and genes.

  • Interview: Black Metal - Collective Survival, Not Spectacle - Talking ‘Mask Casket’ with Davghter's Izzy "DeadName" Bale
    Davghter, the trans black metal band from London, will release their new EP ‘Mask Casket’ on December 1st, 2025. An EP that takes the misanthropic aggression of black metal and points it at the reality of living in a world that tries to define you out of existence. This is black metal as a site of collective survival rather than spectacle.
    A mighty release that showcases immense creativity born from the souls of those who believe in what they are doing. This is black metal with feeling, black metal with a point, and black metal that everyone can embrace.
    Check out the full review here: https://www.gbhbl.com/ep-review-davghter-mask-casket-self-released/
    We spoke to Izzy "DeadName" Bale (she/her) about the new EP and how this is the record that firmly puts Davghter on the metal map. As well as talking about the Davghter journey to this point, we also break down several songs from the EP, and so much more.

  • Interview: No More Can Be Done - The Dissonant World of P+A+G+E+S
    Dissonant, depressive, unflinchingly honest, nihilistic, and incredibly cathartic, this is a summation of P+A+G+E+S (FKA ‘Morning Pages’ from 2014 – 2019) debut album, ‘No More Can Be Done’. The South African doom, atmospheric noise, drone and sludge post-metal trio released it on October 25th, 2025.
    Nihilism at its most uncompromising, and nihilism that comes with a highly experimental touch. The trio that is P+A+G+E+S are a damn near indescribable bunch and defy all genre logic across five (four if you pick up the vinyl version) expressive, intense, and elaborate efforts. It’s not that it’s heavy, after all, heavy albums aren’t exactly in short supply, it’s that it embraces misery while exploring the reasons behind it. The world is not in a good place, and day by day, we seem to be careening towards even darker times. Yes, it’s a nihilistic way to think, but it is reality, and that is what P+A+G+E+S explore.
    Read the full review of the incredible album, here: https://www.gbhbl.com/album-review-pages-no-more-can-be-done-self-released/
    We spoke P+A+G+E+S about ‘No More Can Be Done’, digging into the themes behind it, how it’s more hopeful than first expected, the evolution of the band and how patience has paid off, life in Cape Town, the future, and so much more.

  • Interview: Putting the Pieces Back Together - The Story of Stellvris' 'Shatter & Bloom' with Vocalist Nicol Hofman
    Released on November 7th, 2025, Shatter & Bloom is Stellvris’ explosive new EP, blending raw emotion, melody, and heaviness into a powerful statement of modern metal strength.
    Since forming in 2019, the European metal outfit have built their brand around honesty and emotional depth, exploring pain but also how to turn that pain into power. Here on their new EP, Shatter & Bloom, they deliver their most intense statement yet.
    We loved it. Describing it as:
    A high-energy, intense, and creative record. When you pack so many ideas, components, and genre switches into a release — and even within individual songs — there’s always a risk of losing some listeners. But Stellvris manage to strike a balance, especially between the electronic elements and the more traditional instrumentation. What’s clear is that this band has real talent: powerful rhythm work, strong guitar and bass tones, and a remarkably versatile vocalist. They know how to use those strengths intelligently, and the crisp production ensures every detail shines through. The result is a modern, ambitious, and fiercely engaging release from a band that looks set to achieve huge things.
    Read the full review here: https://www.gbhbl.com/ep-review-stellvris-shatter-bloom-self-released/
    The EP has depth, and that is what we explore with vocalist Nicol Hofman. Digging into the detail of the EP, the journey to its release, evolving the Stellvris sound, what the future looks like, and so much more.
