I sink into the sands of time, from Mesozoic to Anno Domini in one short night, as Dinosaur Jr jam out their midwest-grunge at the O2 Forum, Kentish town.

The Kraken has been released, and his name is Adam Betts – the man with suspiciously few limbs for being able to pull off his one-man drumming experience ‘Colossal Squid’. I brave the treacherous waters of suburban Birmingham to try and catch him supporting for the math rock sentinels ‘Covet’, on Sunday 21st August 2022, at The Asylum.

I join the rave on area 69, to see if there really is anything to the rumours…

The first live gig of the year; well, sort of. I sit back and mosh at home with Tycho’s Solo Ascent live stream, aired at sunrise (7am PST) on January 1st 2021. 

At one of their biggest shows yet, I go to see psych rock’s best offering – King Gizzard & The Wizard Lizard – at Alexandra Palace, 5th October 2019, to see how they fair compared to last time around.
