Artist: RØRY
Who: English high-volatge singer-songwriter,
multi-instrumentalist and producer, born
Roxanne Emery. She’s non-binary, and uses

After achieving everything she’d spent her life fighting for, a UK Top 10 album
with her debut Restoration, sobriety, love, family and a second chance at music,
Rory found herself confronting a darkness she thought she’d already survived.
Album: BLOODLETTING
Her 2nd.
Looks painful.

Kerrang says: “Though different emotions are taking centre stage here, RØRY has been real, raw and affecting all over again, and it’s impossible to experience BLOODLETTING without feeling even just a prickle of everything she’s endured over the years.”

A deafening record about emergence, about recognizing

THROAT SLAVE occupies a space somewhere between nightmare and revelation.
Like the glowing figure depicted on its cover, the record emerges from darkness transformed – beautiful, disturbing, and impossible to fully explain.”

Artist: PRESIDENT
Who: No, not that moron Trump. These are English mysterious
masked nu metalcore coming up, faster than a comet out of
control.
Album: BLOOD OF YOUR EMPIRE
Their debut.
I’m sure if you remove the masks of this band, you’ll find the key members of Deftones.
President‘s wall of nu-metal noise sounds that familiar, and it gained them thousands and thousands of fans during their summer festival appearances.
French Painter Eugene Delacroix
The album’s front cover artwork is a replica of a painting by French artist
Eugene Delacroix. It depicts a scene of the Battle of Poitiers from 1830.
The battle, part of the Hundred Years’ War between France and the
British Empire.
It was the decisive victory for the English forces led by Edward the Black Prince against
a French army commanded by John II of France, who was captured in the fighting.

Band: THE SCRIPT
Who: Immensenly popular
Irish pop team.
New Album: THE USER’S GUIDE TO BEING HUMAN
Their brand new 8th one.
The music isn’t really my cup of tea, but I dig the artwork and also
the album’s title. Maybe all political leaders should buy the record
and try to become humans.

Below the cover of Tom Waits‘s 4th LP Small Change released 50 years ago
