After thawing out this frosty package that had arrived from some arctic plateau (actuallyMoscow) three discs tumbled out all by Frozen Ocean. I was not sure what to expect from this cold and wet sounding artist but noted that one… Continue Reading →
Everly, Jackson, Gibb, Allman, Gallagher, Cavalera; I could go on but you should have joined the dots by now. Adding to that list of Bros in bands we now have the Von Hertzen’s who we are informed are the ‘wild… Continue Reading →
Putting pre conceived notions gained from listening to loads of poor bands on this label aside I grabbed this album by the strange sounding Vali Ohm thinking that it might deliver the goods for once. After all the project is… Continue Reading →

Since Varg Vikernes regained his freedom there has been a veritable flurry of activity from him. With plenty of time to formulate his ideas and reflect upon what he wanted to do but was constrained against doing due to obvious… Continue Reading →
I always look forward to getting things from cottage industry label Godreah. They do things the old way, putting out quality instead of quantity in the form of both eclectic bands and compilation discs. Like their Hawkwind tribute, the title… Continue Reading →
My first task here was trying to decipher the band’s name as their logo makes it practically impossible. Their logo on the disc itself was a swirling struck by lightning sunwheel as far as I could guess and the spine… Continue Reading →
