BEST OF 2018 - #1 (VIDEO INTERVIEWS: The Butterfly Effect & Osaka Punch)

2018 has been a truly incredible adventure of killer music, stellar shows and bands both old and new fighting the good fight to gift us with their art. For The Soundcheck it has been a privilege to review and interview so many of these artists, and to celebrate the amazing journey of 2018 we're ending the year counting down some of our best moments.

In no particular order we've been showcasing 10 of our favourite articles from throughout the year, and today we wrap it up with a dead tie: it was impossible to split our video interviews with The Butterfly Effect and Osaka Punch, so here's two for the price of one!

Thank you so much to everyone who has supported The Soundcheck in 2018 - from the amazing artists and publicists to the wonderful people reading and supporting along the way. Here's to an even better 2019! Loads of love, TS xo
