As you may have guessed, this is not going to be the most serious exercise in music ever committed to disc but what the hell, we all like a laugh now and then. Of course with tracks like ‘Heard It… Continue Reading →
A deep electronic wave is the background to a slow and repetitive guitar riff. The machine has started. There are sounds of wind even further behind. The bleakness and tone remind me a lot of the music of Burzum. This… Continue Reading →
This is actually the debut album from Italian folk Krampus although they have released a couple of EP’s prior to being snapped up by NoiseArt records. As for their somewhat strange name, well a Krampus is a Christmas beasty who… Continue Reading →

We have been keeping our eye on this rising UK outfit and were very pleased to discover that they had been signed to Indie Records recently. The group come from a number of versatile outfits including amongst them The Rotted,… Continue Reading →
