Introduction/Hiatus

What's up? My name is Mazzie (I also go by Thorn). I used to run a blog called Music With Mazzie Massacre, where I used to write about:
- Recent shows I've attended
- Interview band members 
- Reviews on a song, album
- Features about a band/musician I've never heard of

I started Music With Mazzie Massacre in 2013 before I started university. I studied BA Journalism & Media at Middlesex University (I graduated in 2016) and wrote mostly about metal music. There was a very good reason why I chose to attend that university, because the campus was very close to Camden Town, which allowed me to go to as many gigs as possible and was beneficial for the course. 
I was disheartened when my supervisor left me nasty feedback on my dissertation, saying that it wasn't good enough when I had put my heart and soul into Music With Massacre. His comments discouraged me from writing more music blogs. After my hiatus, I lost my passion and had to terminate the Music With Mazzie Massacre blog. Unfortunately, it lost its soul.

Enough about the sad part, here's the list of what's going to be included in this blog...well the same as before but with a stronger vibe. 

I am active on Instagram so if any band/musician would like to be featured in my music blog, my Instagram handle is @thornofrage.

Make Emo Great Again is the motto

Peace out!

Gig Review: Worst

Date: 4.8.25 Supporting acts: Exile (UK/NZ), Street Soldier (UK) and Chaos Reign (UK) Location: Signature Brew Haggerston, London Brazilian hardcore Worst ended their Euro summer tour at Signature Brew, London, with support acts Chaos Reign, Xile and Street Soldier.  I won't lie; I was initially reluctant to see Chaos Reign live after checking out their music. But seeing them live changed my mind. Solid performance from the hardcore punk band from London. I was not expecting Jason Heightman (Chaos Reigns' frontman) to be singing directly in my face *chuckles*. Although I thought he would be hanging around steel joists. Talk about being the HEIGHT man, get it? He was quite a character, getting on the table, screaming into the mic. @chaosreignsuk Xile's brought Kiwicore to the pit with lots of two-steps, flying karate jumps and brutal breakdowns (I'm talking about New Zealand here, not kiwifruits). The kiwis know how to party! Especially when they performed from their EP ...

Song Review: Gang Mentality by Screwdriver Lobotomy

Image
Aye aye! The Glaswegian finest beatdown boys, Screwdriver Lobotomy (Hold the Phione, they're a band)  are back with another slamtastic track, 'Gang Mentality,' and oh boy, they know how to deliver. Street Soldier's brother from another mother! They have performed live and I could tell that they know how to put on a show! I won't need to say "I'll believe it when I see it" because their live footage says it all! The beginning of the track starts off with the intro sample from Hood Took Me Under by Compton's Most Wanted. It has a similar vibe to PeelingFlesh's 'Make A Move,' transitioning from old-school hip-hop to slamming guitar riffs, two-steps, windmills and flying jump kicks. It's music to my ears (literally) to hear the iconic bleughs and barks; even the cats approve! Imagine cats in the mosh-pit, two-stepping and pawing the air. The style of this song reminds me of old school Paleface Swiss (before their CURSED era) and a littl...
