Horror movies often get a bad rap. They’re seen as gratuitously violent, psychologically damaging, and a blight on society. But beneath the surface of jump scares and gore lies a genre with surprising emotional depth. Horror films can offer catharsis, a release of pent-up emotions, in ways that other genres simply can’t. By confronting our deepest fears and anxieties in a safe, fictional space, we can process them, understand them, and ultimately overcome them. Here are seven horror films that offer unique cathartic experiences: Let the Right One In (2008) Directed by: Tomas Alfredson What’s it about? A bullied young…

Much of the blame for this should be laid at the door of the writing. David Koepp is a scribe with a mixed bag of a track record, illustrated by the fact he penned the screenplays for both the magnificent Jurassic Park and the abominable Jurassic World Rebirth. Here, he’s taken an original story from Spielberg and built it into a 145-minute conspiracy thriller/chase movie that neither thrills nor gets any momentum going. In fact, it feels like a first draft that no one got around to actually scrutinising. That can be the only explanation for Disclosure Day’s sizeable flaws.…
Photo by Aaron IvesIn the tradition of bands naming themselves after specific places or landmarks, Winnipeg-based Leaf Rapids are named for a remote town in northwest Manitoba. Not necessarily easy to locate on a map, anyone would be hard-pressed to find the town purely by chance. It takes a bit of effort, and the same can be said for the band, but for the adventurous musical explorer, they are definitely worth venturing off the beaten track to seek out, as there is a trove of melodious sounds to be discovered.Formed in 2015, the band consists of Keri and Devin Latimer…

Despite supporting hundreds of young people every year, In-Spire Sounds has largely operated outside the spotlight. With the release of IN THE MIX: Volume 1, a 12-track mixtape written and performed entirely by the young people involved in the project, and its recent accreditation as an Alternative Education Provider, now felt like the right time to tell that story.We spoke with Kingsley Boyden about the origins of In-Spire Sounds, the impact music can have on young people’s lives, and why a recording studio can be much more than a place to make records.Before In-Spire Sounds, before the director title, there…
Zimbabwean born artist Kuda-Kwashé continues to carve out his own lane with the release of Afua’s Kitchen (Hosted by Ne Yo), an uplifting Afro fusion track that blends Afrobeats, Afropop, rap, R&B and soulful storytelling into a celebration of culture, food and human connection.Built around infectious rhythms and feel good energy, the song was inspired by something surprisingly simple: conversations about food. What began as a light hearted exchange with a Ghanaian entrepreneur making homemade sauces evolved into a wider reflection on how food and music bring people together across cultures.For Kuda-Kwashé, the track reflects the hospitality and community spirit…
FM PRO SpotlightPhiladelphia-based songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Mallory Hawk releases Chinook, a debut album shaped by Southern memory, military-town pressure, rage, tenderness, and self-preservation.

WU LYFManchester Albert HallJune 13th 2026A riddle wrapped inside a mystery, wrapped inside an enigma yet vamped by a stunning live experience, WU LYF (short for World Unite! Lucifer Youth Foundation) are the secretive band who exist beyond the babble of the now. Growing up with the gang cool of hip hop and the fierce energy of hardcore punk it was not for them the never ending spectacle of society divorced from reality with its endless digital shouting. Not for them them the ‘we are all prostitutes’ grind of the music biz. Not for them the dispiriting graft of pop…

Peter Steele, the ultimate goth metal figurehead, never saw Type O Negative as a goth metal band. “The ‘goth’ term was thrust upon us by the media,” he told The Aquarian in 1996. “People, in general, need to know where to put product. It’s like trying to hammer a semi-circular piece of wood into a circular hole. We kind of fit, but kind of don’t.”That opinion was contrarian then and it’s contrarian now. Type O Negative remain the goth metal band by which all other goth metal bands are judged. And their fourth album, October Rust, is the perfect encapsulation…
