An Introduction

Welcome to MOPE.

My name is Jack Hardiman, and this blog is a way for me to turn my passion for music into coherent words as opposed to manic screaming. Here, I'll be reviewing festivals, live shows, albums, songs, and anything else which I feel strongly about in some capacity. It's something I've wanted to do for a while, because I always seem to have a lot to say and nobody to say it to - at least, nobody who cares about the same shit.

I've spent the last nine years of my life, since I was ten years old, falling further and further in love with music; particularly rock, metal, punk, hardcore, and all things in between. For five of those years, I've been attending as many gigs and festivals as I can, and thus my biggest passion is live music (for which you can largely blame bands like The Dillinger Escape Plan and HECK). The British "underground" rock & metal scene is my home now, and so that'll make up a lot of what you read on this blog. I do still love a bit of hip-hop and pop if it's interesting enough, so I'm not gonna put any genre limits on this site as a whole - if I've got something to say about a piece of music, it'll probably show up here.

MOPE is what I've decided to name this new project (again, for which you can blame HECK) and I hope it can develop into something consistent and interesting for me, but also for anyone else who happens to read it. If you decide to join me at all, thank you.

🤘🤘🤘
