"I think people can compare and make comparisons about a bunch of different, really cool factions from the past but the Undisputed Era is fresh. It's new. It's us."

Sêan Reid spoke with Adam Cole at Download Festival to discuss the pressure of being champion, where the Undisputed Era ranks amongst some of wrestling's greatest groups, taking air guitar tips from Kyle O'Reilly and how he's benefitted from training at the WWE Performance Center.

The Interrupters (Download Festival 2019)

"I don't think it matters where or when you play at Download, it's always going to be an absolutely phenomenal time."

Fresh off from opening the main stage on the final day of Download Festival 2019, Cane Hill's Elijah Witt (vocals) and James Barnett (guitarist) spoke to Already Heard's Sêan Reid about their set, what they've been up to since the release of their 'Kill the Sun' EP this past January, the positive response to that EP and performing with Halestorm's Lizzy Hale in their hometown of New Orleans.

Cane Hill (Download Festival 2019)

“With Imperium, it’s all about wrestling. It’s about protecting the values of this sport”
The members of Imperium have achieved a lot throughout their individual wrestling careers. Now they have come together in WWE NXT UK as they aim to take absolute power of the brand. And with NXT UK Champion WALTER at the forefront, they’re making steps towards achieving that. Flanked by Marcel Barthel, Fabian Aichner, and Alexander Wolfe, the quartet are leaving their mark within NXT UK.

For Barthel, Wolfe and WALTER, it’s allowed them to reunite having spent together wrestling and training together in Germany, most notably as part of the Ringkampf faction.

At Download Festival 2019, Imperium continued their charge as part of NXT UK’s TV tapings. They also spoke to Already Heard’s Tim Birkbeck. Over the course of three interviews, Tim spoke with WALTER, Wolfe and the pairing of Marcel Barthel and Fabian Aichner about their motives, transitioning from the independent circuit and more.

Power Trip (Download Festival 2019)

"One of the most important things we enjoy about doing a band is putting out music"

Since starting Can't Swim as a solo project in 2015, Chris Loporto has turned it into a full band, one that has proved to be very productive. Their 2016 debut EP, 'Death Deserves a Name,' was swiftly followed up their first full-length, 'Fail You Again' with a second album, 'This Too Won't Pass,' arriving last November.

Throughout that time, they've become regular visitors to the UK through various headline and support tours with festival spots along the way. Their latest trip to these shores saw them make their debut at the 2000trees Festival.

Ahead of their set on the Cave stage, Already Heard's Sêan Reid caught up with Chris Loporto to discuss the band's frequent activity, their evolving songwriting process, how work on their new material is coming along and more.

Can't Swim (2000Trees Festival 2019)

"We put the pressure very high on ourselves for this record"

We've been supporters of Belgium trio Brutus for quite some time. With two stellar albums under their belt with 'Burst' and 'Nest,' Stefanie Mannaerts (vocals/drums), Stijn Vanhoegaerden (guitars), and Peter Mulders (bass) have become gradually become favourites amongst fans and critics of heavy music.

On stage, they've become a force to be reckoned with, matching the reputation they've honed on record and have been known to steal the show at many festivals. Amongst them is 2000trees. Ever since making their debut at Upcote Farm three years ago, they've become regulars with their third visit seeing them confidently step up to the main stage.

Fresh off from setting the bar high for the weekend, Already Heard's Sêan Reid spoke to Peter and Stefanie about the overwhelming reaction to 'Nest' and the pressure of making a second record.

Brutus (2000Trees Festival 2019)

"We've been able to pull ourselves up into a space where we're able to recognise what is going on… 'I am pissed off but there is a way through it'"

After being holed up writing and recording their second album, COUNTERFEIT. made their long-awaited return at the recent Leeds Festival. Following an impressive main stage set, Already Heard's Dane Wright spoke to frontman Jamie Bower along with guitarist Sam Bower and drummer Jimmy Craig. 

They spoke about the set, their return and new material. While Jamie discussed how sobriety has affected the band's songwriting and the balancing act between life as a musician and as an actor.
