Yes that is correct but I’m not going to go in a history lecture, the long and short of it is after shooting live shows for 2 years, I felt like I needed a change otherwise I would be doing the same thing day in day out and not progressing. I decided to take a break from it and just… READ ON

25th January 2011 – Here we have the ground stomping Foundation from Atlanta in the good old USA. Playing in the same venue as Latitudes last week, I set up from Chris at Bridge 9 Records to do some new work for Foundation for the 2011 press cycle. Simple strong… READ ON

As a kind of evolution from the band of the month feature, which hasn’t been done again since it started I know (Woe Is Me gets it this month), and its a new year I thought I’d give a shout out to some bands who have long been established or just come out that have been played pretty much everyday quite exclusively.

12th March 2010 – Sadly the last time we would see the incredible Aaron Gillespie in the Underoath outfit, a shame but people have to do what feels right. Without further longing though, this was definitely a highlight even in the early part of the year.

Being lit mainly by spotlights save for a single blue bulb far off into the background, it was quite a obstacale in creating a variety of photos with the same lighting employed throughout.
