The award for heaviest band of the event went to masked heavy metal outfit Never A Hero who are currently enjoying success on Kerrang! and Scuzz TV. On the basis of this set it’s clear this success is well deserved, and they were certainly the best and tightest band of the weekend. Think Bullet For My Valentine with occasional bursts of rapping and you’re not far off how these guys sound. - Ipswich Evening Star
