Single review: As the Palaces Burn – “Zodiac”
Coming straight out of the southern Brazilian city of Criciúma in Santa Catarina, the genre-bending outfit As the Palaces Burn have been one of the country’s best-kept secrets, consistently releasing great material. They burst onto the scene with 2019’s End’evour, which has a furious heavy/thrash me

24 Songs of Xmas 2024 / Single Review: Just Happy to Be Here – Father Christmas
That Just Happy to Be Here, the New Jersey based pop-punk band, has chosen to cover "Father Christmas", a song from the Kinks, is not entirely surprising. The Kinks have influenced many bands and a not unreasonable case can be made th

24 Songs of Xmas / Single Review: Yächtley Crëw – It’s Christmas Time
This band calls themselves Yächtley Crëw (see what they did there?) and they claim to be "Titans of Soft Rock" and from the evidence of this song, I'm not going to argue!
The song, "It's Christmas Time", is from an EP called Seas and Greet

24 Songs of Xmas / Single Review: The Plague -Santa Clause Is Coming To Town
This is an odd Christmas single... but odd in a good way.
This is "Santa Clause Is Coming To Town" as you have never heard it before (apart from, perhaps, in your nightmares). It has to be said that this release does not entitrely follow the tradi

Single Review: ‘King BIG – Rudy’s On The Roof
I like Big Boy Boater and his music, so, when I heard he had a side project, where he worked on a Christmas song in a ska style, I was in... even before I heard it.
The song is "Rudy's On The Roof" by 'King BIG. (The apostrophe before "King" appears to be important, but as someone on Santa'

24 Songs of Xmas / Single Review: Vulgarithm – Christmas Time With Vulgarithm
It has to be said I was in two minds about reviewing this single. It is so far from my usual cup of tea that it barely resembles an aromatic beverage prepared by pouring boiling water over dried leaves. In the end I decided... it

24 Songs of Xmas 2024: Blind Boys Of Alabama & Jay Buchanan – I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day
The legendary gospel group, The Blind Boys of Alabama, in collaboration with Jay Buchanan (frontman of The Rival Sons) sounds like a match made in heaven. So, does I Heard The Bells On Ch

24 Songs of Xmas 2024: The Sheepdogs – Santa Man/Hot Christmas
This could be an EP or an old style single with an A side and a B side. I have decided to treat it as an old school single...
I generally do not like trying to label a band with a particular genre, but if I had to apply one to The Sheepdogs, I wo

Looking for a feel good rock rock’n’roll Christmas single? Then you will be glad to know that Ricky Warwick has released All I Want For Christmas… Is Christmas!, which features Billy Duffy of The Cult on guitar and guest vo

24 Songs of Xmas 2025: Deedra Patrick – Christmas Is Calling You
I must admit that I am not familiar with the name Deedra Patrick, but she has an interesting blues edge to her vocals.
This particular song, Christmas is Calling You, has a country blues feel to it, largely because of the excellent lap steel guita

24 Songs of Xmas 2025: Joe Bonamassa – Lonely Christmas Eve
As I write this review, it is the 25th of November, which means it is officially one month until Christmas and, despite objections from the Moshville Times editors, it is time for some Christmas reviews.
There are many indications that Christmas is approachi

Single Review: Tattoo Molly – Nail in the Coffin
Tattoo Molly is back with a vengeance on their latest single, "Nail in the Coffin", a hard-hitting track that pulls no punches. Tattoo Molly are raw, raucous, and unapologetically loud and it's unsurprising why they owned Hella Rock Festival back in August. This track is no exception — it’s a four-mi

Single Review: Drop Out – “Regression”
This one dropped into the mailbox a little while ago and I had a few minutes between working, doing work and getting some work done so I popped it on and... holy hell. I don't think I've heard a track drop-tune so much, with incredible volume, without making my speakers shit themselves before. This is some good mixing and

Single Review: Dead Label – “Embodiment of Agony”
Another band we've been following for fecking years, Ireland's Dead Label never disappoint. They've recently lost a guitarist and gained a vocalist... who's also their guitarist! Original member (they're back to their founding trilogy) Danny Hall has joined regular growly scary frontman / bassist D

Single Review: Kim Jennett – Hell is Wherever You Are
It’s been some time since we featured Kim Jennett on our pages. We’ve followed her career since the early days of her old band, Voodoo Blood, which we caught a few times and since then, she’s shown what a force of nature she is, working with Myke Gray, touring with Revival Black and more rec

Single Review: Anchor Lane ft Lo Rays – Sycophant Disorder
It’s the first night of Anchor Lane’s current tour, finally making their long-awaited Wolverhampton debut with another thrilling night of their boisterous altrock. Deep into the set comes “Sycophant Disorder” and the room is reminded that it’s set for its own release featur
