With singer Alice Cooper, guitarists in the form of Hollywood actor Johnny Depp and Aerosmith legend Joe Perry, and producer and songwriter Tommy Henriksen, the band has a top-class lineup. With Live In Rio they probably played their biggest and most legendary gig in front of more than 100,000 fans.

Ahead of the live album’s release, the group are sharing their live rendition of I Got A Line On You, the accompanying music video shows the sheer magnitude of the event and the reactions that this song still evokes in people even 55 years after it was written. Originally by the American rock band Spirit, Hollywood Vampires cover this classic in their very own way. Rocking, driving and full of energy, the track seems revitalised and bristles with power. A 3 minute track with hit potential.

In 2015, Hollywood Vampires not only released their first album, but also played one of their biggest concerts, which will now be released as their first live album. After this success and the media interest in the ultimate rock group, sold-out concerts and tours all over the world followed and in 2019, finally, the second album Rise. Over 50,000 physical units sold, millions of streams and worldwide cover stories in major magazines later, fans, press and the band were ready to bring these songs to the stage. Unfortunately, part of the tour had to be postponed due to the pandemic and will finally be made up for this summer. Fittingly, the first live album will be released a few days earlier, on 2nd June 2023.

Britainicana Is Louder That Americana: Westside Cowboy Stampede Through Portsmouth

Manchester-based quartet Westside Cowboy have only been together since 2023, but have already caused a stir. They have even coined a genre of their own – Britainicana. Even though the name suggests US country with a miserable and sarcastic British twist, they have created something much more fun.

Lacuna Coil @ Stylus, Leeds (John Hayhurst)

Midweek Metal Mass: Lacuna Coil Blaze Through Leeds Stylus

Italian goth heavyweights Lacuna Coil turn Tuesday into a blackout ritual at Leeds Stylus, backed by a fired-up opening assault from Florida bruisers Nonpoint.

Nonpoint hit the stage like they’ve been itching for it all day. Elias Soriano stalks the mic with clipped precision, spitting hooks and commands in equal measure. Robb Rivera goes straight for the gut behind the kit, while Adam Woloszyn grinds out bass lines with industrial weight. Guitarist’s Jaysin Zeilstra and Rasheed Thomas add bite and distortion, feeding the noise without ever tipping it into clutter. The band sound more drilled-in than on their last UK run — tighter, sharper, still proudly abrasive.

Mumford & Sons @ Pryzm (Kalpesh Patel)
