Mental that @instagram don't see a problem with this, but also won't verify me.
.
So, once again - this isn't me. If you get a message from "me" telling you your band is great and that I'm running a thing in @kerrangmagazine_ covering new bands in exchange for cash, please report them, and screengrab what they've sent you and fwd it to me.
.
We have never charged for this sort of thing. It's fucking gross, anti-band, and against the very idea of finding and championing cool, exciting music.
.
Thank you to the bands who have been tipping me off to these pricks. Scammers, F.O.A.D.

New issue day!
Loads of cowabunga stuff in the new K! print mag. I spoke to the very lovely Bryan Garris about Metallica, getting massive and getting your head around finding yourself in a huge new world for our world-exclusive Knocked Loose cover, explored the realm of Castle Rat with Riley Pinkerton, and got the first vibes about the new Green Lung album from Tom Templar.
There's loads of other cowabunga stuff in it as well. Pick up a copy at your noiseagent.

2025 in covers! Seventeen of them, from all over the place, online and in print, with a world of different and brilliant artists, each with its own story. Thank you to every musician I was lucky enough to spend time with and prod with questions.
What a bloody year! Here's to more in 2026!
A wee while ago, @blueedgecompass and I headed to Mexico for a wild weekend at Day Of The Dead with Avatar. We took in the parades, seeing the band play a stormer to almost 10,000 maniacs, saw the incredible Pyramid of the Sun, and picked up tonnes of merch at the legendary El Chopo metal market.
Special zine available to buy now from the @kerrangmagazine_ store. Pick up Avatar's killer new album Don't Go In The Forest as well.

Huge thanks to @wilfulandsullivan@olympia.hertzelag and @finmucha for an unforgettable time
