It's here! The final band to join Creeper's 2017 TNM associated headline tour is announced and we could not be more excited.

As a special treat, Will, Ian and the vocalist of our latest addition sit around for a round table on how exciting this tour is (SPOILER: very!), what makes this tour a movement and why you should join Creeper, Energy, Puppy and our new friends at the biggest party of 2017. See you on the road!

Hill and Beez interrupt their Xmas to bring you a full review of Nine Inch Nails's first new music in 3 whole years. Not The Actual Events is available now and we discuss how it measures up to their past, what's new for them and what it means for the band's future.

Yes, we realise that our review is ten mins longer than the EP itself. Sorry not sorry.
