Now, this is not an excuse in advance post, promise. We're cool, honed professionals here at Aloud and our coverage will never reflect the weight of our hangover, the time of day or the lack of food in our bellies.*

However. There are exceptions to every rule and in this case the exception is the Kerrang! Awards. We haven't even got the bus home yet, and already we're craving your pardon for our mental slowness tomorrow.

But seriously! We've been partying with Bring Me The Horizon! We had our photo taken with Meatloaf! We wore a SNAKE for god's sake. We rocked this party like a fat man on a lilo.

So yeah, it's Reading tomorrow, the biggest party in the rock calendar. We will report fully, strongly, and with the aid of Red Bull. Snoochie Mcboochies...

*This is quite clearly all lies.
