“The best 80s-style hard rock in ages... Call Of The Void rules. If you’ve worn out your copy of Skid Row’s first album, get on this.” -Andy Thorley (MaximumVolumeMusic.com)

“Call Of The Void is one of the best rock albums of the year.” -Mojo Moomey (KSOI-FM radio) 

“Brilliant... like a modern Thin Lizzy.” -Ray Haller (Sweet Savage)

“Northern Ireland are producing some great new bands, and Wild Heat are up there with the best of them.” -Jeff Goswell (IgniteAMR radio)

From legendary sound engineer Frankie McClay, the man behind the desk for Trucker Diablo and the Gasoline Outlaws, comes the incendiary debut album from WILD HEAT. 

Their radio-ready fusion of classic rock and 80s metal draws you in with explosive riffs and catchy hooks, but every listen will reveal more of the intricate melodies layered over pounding beats and driving basslines. The result is a feel-good sound guaranteed to put a smile on your face. 

WILD HEAT are a 5-piece band from Belfast.
Lead guitar - Carlos Goggin
Vocals - Tommy Bell
Rhythm guitar - Chris Coulter
Bass - Neal Fowler
Drums - Konstantin G

Like A Hawk are an exciting 4 piece rock outfit established in the small town of Limavady in the North West of Northern Ireland. Formed by brothers Archie & Ryan during their music studies at college, the band began writing the  chunky, loud and lively guitar driven music that the siblings had grown up on.

With Archie's strong rock vocals and classic riff repertoire, and Ryan's fast paced, hard-hitting beat keeping, the band soon established a strong, original live set including everything from standard Classic Rock songs to Hard Rock power ballads alongside the occasional 70's rock cover.

Archie and Ryan were soon joined by Johnny 'Cheddar' Mullan on guitar and backing vocals and Ciaran Buchanan on bass. Not only did the new duo help secure a steadfast and firm backbone to the already pounding rock machine, but they brought endless new opportunity to expand and diversify the overall sound of the band.

Like A Hawk is:
Archie Archibald - Lead Vocals/Guitar
Johnny 'Cheddar' Mullan - Guitar/Backing Vocals
Ciaran Buchanan - Bass Guitar
Ryan Archibald - Drums/Backing Vocals

Angry, noisy, trashy, punchy and irreverent as they possibly could be, Irish three-piece Podracer take the post-punk sounds of the 80's, the SubPop sounds of the 90's and different elements of rock and punk to create a sound that defies the categorization of genre-tagging social media.
Their debut album "Parking Cars & Pumping Gas" was released on September 2012 and since then they have shared the stage with some of Ireland's finest rockers including Kerbdog, Little Matador (Snow Patrol's Nathan Connolly's side project), Whipping Boy, LaFaro, Giveamanakick & Fighting With Wire.
2017 saw the lads on their first mini-tour of the UK and while busy with local gigs, 2018 was very much a focus on songwriting. Their new single ‘Honey’ was released on April 6th of this year as a forerunner for their second album ‘Maskenfreiheit’ which was engineered by Jason Varley at The Shop Recording Studio in Carlingford and mixed/mastered by Neal Calderwood at Manor Park Studio, scheduled to be unleashed upon an unsuspecting public on July 12th 2019.
With lots of gigs lined up for the summer, expect to see Podracer sharing stages with some of Ireland's hottest new talent including Cherym, THVS and Duellists, plus festival appearances at Disturbance Fest and Arcadian Field......

"Honey" is out now on all digital platforms and on YouTube here -
