Expect big grooves aplenty as Stoke-on-Trent's Black Coast unleash their second bout of aggressive metal tomorrow. As the band explain: "A lot of people tell us that our music makes them want to bang and nod their head, so we'd say it's definitely heavy groove with a lot of aggression and melody thrown in as...

Northamptonshire rockers Voices From The Fuselage have honed a fascinating sound that blurs the boundaries of tech metal, progressive rock and post-rock in a delicious manner - leading some to laud them as Britain's answer to Coheed & Cambria.

With a name like this, how could we possibly not name Barbarian Hermit as our New Band of the Week?

"P!nk is completely badass and stands up fully for what she believes in and she doesn’t care an inch what anybody thinks of her," says Flawless Carbon’s frontwoman, Lauren Diamond.
