Law suits, break-up, reunion, a hiatus and another reunion. The Cult have survived it all. Founding members Ian Astbury and Billy Duffy have persevered over the years. Few bands can get way with sounding pretty much the same over the decade, but The Cult can. Their new album Choice of Weapon has their signature guitar sound and the current rhythm section is a rumbling freight train. Astbury's voice may have lost a bit of hits reach, but has retained the dark overtones and anger that made them a household name since the mid-Eighties. Produced by Bob Rock, Choice of ...

World/Inferno Friendship Society has announced their departure from their tour with the veteran UK punk act The Adicts . World/Inferno frontman Jack Terricloth issued this statement to Punknews.org: Kid, the drummer from The Adicts punched me in the face after I told him he did a great show and asked if would there be an encore. I was shocked and did not respond in kind, as both Monkey (the Adicts singer) and Scruff (their rhythm guitar player) asked me not to, as Kid was very upset about some other matter. In fact, I don't think Kid even ...

Documenting the live experience has never been easier – so how can Moshcam compete with those annoying iPhone wavers? We talk to founder Paul Hannigan about the challenges of capturing the fleeting magic of a live show. “Nothing beats actually being at a gig,” admits Paul Hannigan, who co-founded Moshcam five years ago with two friends as a way of capturing the magic of live performance for those who couldn’t be there, or those wanting to relive the experience.
