Creatures is so awesome live.
I saw them play last month at a local hardcore fest and the vocalist had one arm in a cast but still played like he normally would've.

[overdrive91]

Callahan
There for Tomorrow
New Callahan song is good. Different, but good.

[bolgy99]

The Dream The Chase if thats possible. Aussie post-hardcore. Sounds to be in my ballpark. Also the song up sounds pretty good.

[dookiedog]

New Callahan song is good. Different, but good.

I'm digging the new Callahan song a lot!!!

Backed hard. Great cause, great bands.

[Karl [MLUK]]

I'd really love to see a review of un-scene 5, been giving it a listen over the past 2 days and have discovered some really great bands amongst the 40 free tracks and best of all it's been compiled for a really worthy cause, the everyman campaign.
A fantastic effort on the part of everyone involved. Great stuff.

[Daigle lol]

Seriously, is Emmure going to come out with a new CD every year? haha, I have no problem with it, but every CD they've come out with so far sounds EXACTLY the same.. and that's no exaggeration. I still listen to them when I'm biking and shit though xD

This. So many great bands and definitely shows how great the British independent scene is at the moment. Recommended!

[colourofstef]

A review of Unscene 5 would be great, it's a wicked snapshot of the UK punk/indie scene at the moment, some amazing tracks on there :D

[rpk004]
