Phwoar, what a week. Slipknot announced their new album, Bring Me The Horizon revealed the best support line-up ever (although Architects came close, too) and Reading & Leeds brought the curtain down on Festy Season 2014. Here's some of the small stuff you might have missed.
The week began with Labour MP Ed Balls declaring his love for Paramore.
