Bury Tomorrow kick off their headline tour in in their hometown of Southampton. Lets show the rest of the country how it's done! Debut album ‘Portraits’ was a prime example of how Metalcore SHOULD be done, showing flashes of brilliance usually expected from bands far older and more experienced. With equal emphasis on Heaviness and Melody, BT have forged a sound that is as crushing as it is catchy. In a genre full of sugar coated, cookie cutter bands mixing singing and screaming to identical effect, BT are a breath of fresh air… Their melodies are rich and soaring, guitarist Jason Cameron’s husky singing tones invoking the classic 80’s stadium rock vibe, whilst frontman Dani’s monstrous roars and energy coupled with the water-tight riffs of the band make for a salivating prospect. With numerous tours around the world with the likes of Attack Attack!, While She Sleeps, The Ghost Inside, Architects, Bleed From Within, Of Mice & Men, Asking Alexandria and many many more, BT made a devastating return to the fold with their follow up offering, ‘The Union Of Crowns’, released Worldwide this Summer through Nuclear Blast. Taking the foundation laid down by ‘Portraits’ and building on every aspect of that sound, ‘The Union Of Crowns’ is packed to the brim with infectious hooks and city levelling breakdowns. A strong theme of Monarchy runs throughout the album playing on various metaphorical and literal scenarios. This is a darker, heavier, more focused record from BT but one that still retains an enormous sense of melody. Bury Tomorrow have now engrained their name into the upper echelons of Metal, and have created an unquestionably strong record through ‘TUOC’.

Over the last ten years The Amity Affliction have become one of Australia’s most respected and best-loved bands. Their extensive touring has included spots on major Australian Festivals including Soundwave Festival in 2011 and 2013, Big Day Out 2012, Groovin The Moo Festival as well as their biggest national headlining tour in 2012. The band will pack their bags and head back to the US in June for the Vans Warped Tour. The first full-length debut, Severed Ties made way for breakthrough follow-up, Youngbloods. Youngbloods debuted at No. 6 on the Australian ARIA charts and was nominated for Best Hard Rock Performance at both the ARIA and AIR Awards. Youngbloods was also voted Best Album of 2011 on Triple J’s Short Fast Loud program and in Blunt Magazine. Their newest album Chasing Ghosts raised eyebrows as it claimed the #1 debut spot on the Australian ARIA album chart and is certified gold. It is also the first time a local hardcore band has taken the #1 honors in the ARIA chart’s history. Chasing Ghosts was voted #2 on triple j’s Short Fast Loud album of the year while the band were also Blunt Magazine’s Band Of The Year for 2012. www.facebook.com/theamityafflictionofficial www.facebook.com/LANDSCAPESUK www.facebook.com/inheartswake 08/09/13 (Sun) - @ The Cellar • THE AMITY AFFLICTION • LANDSCAPES • IN HEARTS WAKE • LOCAL OPENER TBC TICKETS £9 ADV / DOORS 7.30PM ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Tickets on sale NOW Oxfam Music - East St, Southampton Reskue Skate Shop - Bargate St, Southampton www.seetickets.com www.southamptoncellar.com Southampton Guildhall Box Office - 02380 632601 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- JOIN SOUTHAMPTON MUSIC AND FIND OUT ABOUT THE HOT GIGS AND PRESALES BEFORE EVERY ONE ELSE - www.facebook.com/southamptonmusicmag -----------------------------------------------------------------------

Fronting Yashin is something that remains incredibly important to Florida born Radford but as the touring and promo cycle of their acclaimed 2012 album We Created A Monster came to an end he found he had ideas, music and importantly a reserve of energy in the tank, so set out on a mission to see if he could record and release a solo ep – he succeeded! "I love all different kinds of music as long as it's hooky and is well crafted and this is something I've really wanted to do for just over a year now, I had so many ideas and songs banging around in my head that didn’t feel real, or would ever be real, until they were out there. I’m lucky, I had the opportunity to explore these ideas. it's an exciting and scary time but I love it. I remember when I first I sat down with my friend, producer Simon Janlov (SUMO) and he said; "so what kind of thing we going for here, what do you want to create?" It felt like I was walking out on the stage for the first time again, just total excitement, very inspiring.” ‘’EP title; Pressure Makes Diamonds I'm so relieved and happy that I accomplished releasing this ep, despite all the hurdles. Black & Blue is a positive song even though it's touching on a dark subject. My parents divorced when I was young - it was a hard time and my dad and I never quite saw eye to eye - despite everything, I forgive him for what happened. Cherry Lips Is about one of the best nights of my life I had with a girl I used to know. It's rare when you just meet someone and everything just clicks and infatuation comes from out of nowhere.’’ ‘’Gallery, this song is the reason I started a solo project. It’s about looking back at your life an seeing what really is important and the things and people that really made you happy. Bite The Bullet - I was going through a lot when I wrote this song I remember just wanting to write something a little darker. It's about being at a cross roads and not knowing what the best move is, either sustain the pain and hope it gets better or let go and move on. Hide & Speak is a song about finding the courage to do what you really want and not just talk about it. It's about how I have felt, getting where I am today and how it's important to go for what you believe in!’’ 08/09/13 (Sun) - @ The Joiners • HARRY RADFORD • HIGH VALLEY HIGH • LOCAL SUPPORT TBC TICKETS £8 ADV / DOORS 7.30PM / 14+ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Tickets on sale NOW Southampton Guildhall Box Office [phone]  Oxfam Music - East St, Southampton http://www.seetickets.com/ http://www.joinerslive.co.uk/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- JOIN SOUTHAMPTON MUSIC AND FIND OUT ABOUT THE HOT GIGS AND PRESALES BEFORE EVERY ONE ELSE - www.facebook.com/southamptonmusicmag -----------------------------------------------------------------------
