Live music: Royal Blood - Olympia, Dublin
The success of Royal Blood will be of little surprise to anyone over the age of 30. This Brighton duo combine the ear-splitting muscularity of Metallica, the melodic aggression of The Pixies, and the shambolic tunefulness of Jesus and Mary Chain. For anyone still inclined to believe in the redemptive power of rock music, it’s a formula that screams ‘can’t fail’.
