The launch party was a blinding success. A big thank you to everyone who came to see the show, the turn out was massive. Also a big thankyou to Beau for doing the sound, Steve the Rocking Monk for his introduction and everyone else who chipped in with lugging and helped the pack down.
It will definately be one of our favourite gigs and those who missed out can catch up at one of our other shows.

SCENE SLUT REVIEW
Sizen – What Do you See - Brit rockers Sizen has been around for five years but to be honest, I had not heard of them until this album dropped through my door, so I was intrigued as to what I was going to hear.
'What Do You See' mixes elements of grunge, metal and rock. Heavy riffs are mixed with big melodies and clever grooves, and the album has quite a nostalgic sound. This album makes a pleasant change from all the indie and emo releases that are around these days, and in some ways it reminds me of my youth. Some of the sounds on here are very reminiscent of tracks that were around in the late eighties and early nineties, and while that may not make the band sound original, it's a definite improvement on some recent releases.
Sizen's music has an intense but raw edge, the four lads sound very confident and competent within their music, and it's a pleasure to listen to. There's a nice variety of sounds on 'What Do You See' which gives Sizen a big scope in terms of listeners, there's something on here for everyone. 'What Do You See' is a fab release from a very talented British band.
DEAD ERNEST E-ZINE ALBUM REVIEW
Ah yes – now this is rock – real rock – good old heavy metal. But what really separates it from the rest is that it manages to mix contemporary metal with emo-laced infectious hooks with Classic Rock to such a perfect degree that it's one of those rare things - an album that, the moment you start to play it, you can't stop until the final notes of the last track have finally disappeared into the ether. There are elements of everything from Thin Lizzy to Rage Against The Machine, Metallica to Megadeth, all performed with an intensity and a passion that really keeps you hooked throughout. Even better is that the arrangements, songwriting and production are just first rate, meaning that what you are hearing is crisp, crunchy, driving, rocking and everything that loud rock created with clarity and care, should be. The vocals are superb - strong, soaring, and stunning - performed with an intensity of emotion that really sucks you in on songs that are just so solid, you could do serious damage to a juggernaut if you drove it into them. The guitar work is searing and on fire – thick riffing to scorching soloing – while the rhythm section just thunder, using drama and dynamics as much as all-out attack. Over 9 incendiary tracks, this is a modern metal album that is already at the top of its tree and should be heard by any rock fan who wants to headbang for a solid 50 minutes of life-changing enjoyment.
