Last night's gig at the excellent Birdwell Venue confirmed to some in the audience that most of us there already knew: 1. Chantel McGregor has an angelic, crystal clear, velvet sweet voice that has power and emotion in spades. 2. When Chantel McGregor plays guitar, that guitar becomes possessed b

Okay, in the interests of full disclosure, I should first of all say I used to go to school with SERVERS main guitarist/vocalist/song writer Lee Storrar. I remember being terribly jealous of a few things back then. He was handsome, cool, a talented guitarist and, most of all, he had the hair! Th

REBECCA DOWNES COMPLETES HER JOURNEY TO ULTIMATE ROCK CHICK (WITH THE BLUES STILL IN HER SOUL). After all the acclaim for the simply awesome "More Sinner Than Saint" and the lockdown produced "Stripped Back" albums, Rebecca Downes and her boys headed back to the studio to produce an album that we

THE FIRST LADY OF THE REVOLUTION CONFIRMS HER ROCK CHICK CREDENTIALS! We've been eagerly awaiting the new single and wondering how Rebecca would follow on from the awesome "More Sinner Than Saint" album of a couple of years ago. Well, pandemic lockdowns and the "Stripped Back" album in the meantim

An overview : An album of outstanding solos, great vocals, awesome song writing and production, with more than a hint of the 70’s bands such as Led Zeppelin, Bad Company, Eric Clapton and Deep Purple. Joe’s collaboration with the producer Kevin Shirley over the years has produced some brilliant

Lee Aaron's eagerly awaited new album is finally here. And with a bevy of metal, rock, jazz and blues albums under her belt, Radio On! sees the Canadian vocalist return to the "Body Rock" era of her sound. The result is a fun, sparkling album, that entertains with occasional surprises and consumm

The Other Side of Death, A Masterwork of Vision and Execution! Of Blood & Mercury are one of those bands that defy categorisation. Are they prog rock? Goth? Electro-pop? Extreme music? Ethereal Wave? Dream Pop? Dark Ambient? I know band category is something that can be important to some music fan

One of the most evocative singles of 2019 (see review HERE) has finally delivered its video, completing the artist's stunning vision for the song. I speak of course about Images of Death by Stella Wembley. Our Stella (as she's know around these parts) has put her heart and soul into this project,

Take a classic glam rocker from Slade and turn it into a ballad!?! Are you freaking kidding me??? That would have been my reaction if that's what I had been told that was what Rebecca Downes was about to do. The reality however, is very different. Right from the opening storm sound effect and o

IMAGES OF DEATH BY STELLA WEMBLEY Stella's new single, Images of Death, reaffirms our belief that the dark-goth artist is destined to be a star of the near-future. Before I continue with my review, I think I should make a confession: I am not a huge fan of the genre Stella is most often associated

A rising star in the gothic/dark ambient genre. Stella brings out the EP 'All That I Need'. A synth based track, overlayed with Stella's distinctive vocals and minimalist guitar. The track carries the listener along, through a dark experience. The other tracks on the EP include a Remix, and also

Following the release of Wayne Hussey’s book Salad Daze in May. I was invited to go and see the event in Worcester. Hiding down the back streets of Worcester. The Marrs Bar is an amazing little venue, with a capacity of around 250 people. Supporting Wayne Hussey on the UK part of this tour is

A fantastic rock track marks Tali's return. The new single from Tali Dennerstein really rocks it. With great vocals and music, this single really hits the mark. A great flowing track, with a fantastic guitar ending. This hits all the right notes, at the right times. Cannot wait to see what else, t

Evi Vine's new album really is an ethereal experience. Sitting somewhere between This Mortal Coil and The Cocteau Twins, it's a fantastic journey. Six tracks of haunting melodies, with swirling guitars. This is one album that you can put on and let it carry you away. Starting with "I am waves" a

Regular listeners of this station will know we have certain artists that we have adopted. We have bands and artists that we publicly support, and one of those is the 'Dark Princess of the Revolution', otherwise known as Stella Wembley. A complete workaholic and perfectionist, Stella has driven h

The most awesome Steven Archer (Ego Likeness, Stoneburner) is back with a new Stoneburner 7 track LP. As usual it a huge industrial sound for 6 of the 7 tracks, with track 7 being a Psychedelic Furs cover 'Book Of Days' The first track 'Narcissus' with it's accompanying video, filmed in Las Vag

STELLA WEMBLEY BRAVELY TACKLES BOWIE'S ALIEN AND WE LOVE IT! We've long been a fan of Stella Wembley here at the station, and over the last couple of years have seen the Dark Queen's Empire extend into all kids of photography and video making domains. But she never stopped making music, in fact ne

The new solo album from Steve Annetts sizzles with old style rock and new sound direction! Regular listeners to the station and older rockers will probably be aware of the name "Steve Annetts". We first introduced you to him as the lead singer with "Dangerous Age", a band featuring Ian Foster (Mis

SONGS FULL OF ENERGY, ANGER AND PASSION FROM AN ARTIST WHO HAS THE VOICE OF AN ANGEL WHO UNDERSTANDS ABOUT PAIN. Okay, let's be straight about this from the start. This is not a rock or metal album. But it's not fair to dismiss this as a "pop" album either. True, it has its proportion of jaunty be

EPOCH OF CHIRALITY'S NUCLEOSYNTHESIS IS A MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR FROM DEEP WITHIN THE HUMAN MIND, THROUGH TO THE FURTHEST STAR AND BACK AGAIN. 2021 looks like being the year of the Concept Album. This is great news for those of a certain age, but for the "Spotify 3 minute-attention-span generation

Here on Revolution Radio Online, we have a particular maxim: Bernie Marsden is one of the best guitarists ever. He is also the most over-looked. This is despite him being in Babe Ruth, Whitesnake, his own band Alaska and more, including work with the likes of Joe Bonamassa. Of course, this might

We love our independent artists here on Revolution Radio Online, but there is one artist who rightly claimed the crown of 'The First Lady of the Revolution', and that is Rebecca Downes. Her rocked up blues album "More Sinner Than Saint" won the ROAR* for Best Album of the Year and she herself won

Beauty in Chaos curated by Michael Ciravolo is back with ‘The Storm Before The calm’ a new 6 track album (7 tracks on CD and download). Originally due to be released in February, but due to an computer/software breakdown which set things back. But absolutely determined to carry on Michael battled

I was not expecting this. I truly wasn't. Good Nothings, a local band here in Barnsley, have been getting quite a head of steam in the last year or so but then, the virus stopped everyone in their tracks. Well, almost everyone. Good Nothings decided to record and release a new single. And whilst

NEW ALBUM TAKES THE LISTENER ON A DARK ETHEREAL JOURNEY Of Blood & Mercury Okay, before I start this review proper, I need to point something out. I never considered myself to be a fan of gothic genre music of any kind. Until very recently that is, when, through the Ms Deed and The Master of Chaos

Another quality blues-rock album from Danny Bryant (his 11th studio album) and why is this man not celebrated the world over as one of our greatest blues musicians. It is just over a year since his last release, the heartfelt Revelation, which was recorded just six months after his father’s death

Following on from their 2018 debut 'Finding Beauty In Chaos', Beauty in Chaos are back with a twist to the album. Beauty In Chaos is no ordinary group. The brainchild and curated by Michael Ciravolo. 'Finding Beauty In Chaos' brings together some huge artists, bringing together a total mix of musi

Grooving In Green return with a gothtastic 3rd album. Grooving in Green return with a new album, their first full length release since the 2012 Stranglehold. A 10 track gothic delight. This album is totally brilliant from start to end. Starting off with the title track "A Second Chance", the tone

On a cold and wet Saturday evening in the lovely village of Ripley, we had the pleasure of watching Rebecca Downes and her band. And what a night it was – something old, something new, something borrowed and something Blue. Before Rebecca hit the stage, we had the brilliant Jed Thomas – a solo
