You would be forgiven for thinking a band with such a wacky name may be trading in clip laden comedy grind or crab based retro thrash. Nothing could be further from the truth. Asian Death Crustacean are a London four… Continue Reading →
I love shock in music, it’s probably one of the main draws for me and is reflected in my favourite artists as Alice Cooper takes a prime spot. Anything along the lines of Gwar, Lordi, Anal Cunt or even GG… Continue Reading →
The Bloody Mallard are described as a heavy psych, prog and alt-rock project, recalling the likes of King Crimson, Pink Floyd, Baroness, Yob and Elder. This album starts with a monstrous 11-minute instrumental piece called “Haemoglobin”. I felt the psychedelic… Continue Reading →
