php artisan route:list Exception

I am receiving a strange error when running php artisan route:list. Even when using --verbose It still doesn't give me any sort of pointers to line number or file:

Does your application work?

if there is an error in your PHP syntax none of the php artisan commands will work

The HTML you display is a site that redirects to it self which is kinda strange

It does work as far as I can tell apart from php artisan route:list I can use other artisan generators.
