Take Today gig review


Take Today performed at The Cathouse Glasgow June 2nd 2018 to release their new EP 'Rise Above' with support from Landslides, Century Thirteen and Finding Argyle who are all local bands and have all performed with Take Today before.

As people were walking into the venue, the bands were getting ready to perform and Ross McClenaghan (merch guy) was setting up the Take Today merch at the back of the venue. Most people were at the bar before the bands started sue to the heat that night.

The gig started at 7pm. The opening band 'Landslides' kicked things off with a few of their songs and there was already a good few people at the front watching the performance. However there was feedback from the mics which isn't the bands fault as this happened throughout the night. People enjoyed the bands performance and it was a good opening band.

Next up was Century Thirteen who I've seen once before. The band done really well and performed a few of their songs. This band are for fans of Blink-182 and Sum 41. They have an early 2000s pop punk sound. This band also have new music coming soon so keep an eye out for that!

The final support band was Finding Argyle who were a heavier band than the other support bands as the other support bands had a really pop punk sound. Finding Aryle were on before Take Today so they had a bigger crowd of people to perform in front of. Bigger group meaning around 20 people.

Finally the main band, Take Today, hit the stage. Each of the guys are talented individuals. They sang a few old and new songs for old and new fans to hear and both were really good and each song had a different sound full of shredding, solos and awesome drum beats. They never fail to amaze people.

Female Drummers in The Rock and Metal Music Industry

Drumming is something a lot of people are getting into. Males and females but there's not that many female drummers in rock and metal bands. There are however a lot of female drummers on YouTube posting covers such as Meytal Cohen and Kristina Schiano who really show what they can do. I interviewed a few female drummers about what it's like being a female drummer in the rock and metal music industry. Laura Cornall Who or what got you into drumming? When I first saw school of rock when I was 13 I knew I wanted to be involved in music but got into playing guitar instead of drums because my parents encouraged that more. Then I saw Jen Ledger smash it on the kit with Skillet at Download Festival I knew that's what I wanted to do so I came home and bought a kit! Do you there's enough female drummers in the rock and metal industry? Probaly not! Do you think females are put off from wanting to learn the drums? If so, why? I honestly don't know, maybe it

Download Festival is the biggest rock festival in the UK with thousands of people attending it each year to see some of their favourite bands perform on the stages. Big and small bands are given the opportunity to perform at the festival each year. This year one of the smaller bands that are making it happen at Download this year were Glasgow rockers, Altered Sky who were excited to perform to a crowd of 3000 people with new and old fans in the crowd, waiting for their performance. Not many bands get an opportunity to perform at a massive festival like this so the band jumped at the opportunity. Altered Sky currently have an album out called ‘Without Wonderland’ and have been working on their second album which they said to be “darker and heavier” so we’ll wait for that and see if it sounds like how they promised! Lauren Em told us about Altered Sky’s performance at Download Festival at the Takeover stage and here’s what she said. “Altered Sky at Download fest

LGBT musicians in the rock and metal music industry

We've decided to write this requested article about LGBT musicians in the rock and metal industry featuring interviews with LGBT musicians. NOTE: We are sorry that half of the article looks different to the rest of it (white boarder around the black font writing) there's not much that we can do about it but we're glad that it's still readable. The rock and metal music scene are the most supportive when it comes to LGBT+ as many musicians and fans are LGBT+ One of which is Lynn Gunn, who sings for the band PVRIS and is also gay. She's a huge LGBT+ inspiration as well as a music inspiration with fans calling her "the gay icon" and "gay god". Many of PVRIS's fans are LGBT+ and all feel very excepted. There was a time at a PVRIS meet and greet when a fan came out to her mum as gay by holding a sign saying she was gay and Lynn asked if she was sure she wanted to come out this way and she did. She held the sign while getting a picture with the
