Folks, let me quote a few statistics that are salient to both me and this review: when I left London in 2014 for Dundee, the local population was reckoned at about 8.5 million, excluding the many “beds in sheds” residents… Continue Reading →
If for whatever bizarre reason you’ve read my inane ramblings over the last few years, you will know that Clouds Taste Satanic is a band I massively admire. Their instrumental doom music is of a scope that is positively cinematic,… Continue Reading →
Poland’s Sunnata deliver their fourth long player since their formation back in 2013. More than your straight-ahead doom band, they offer up a more rounded music experience that pulsates and immerses the listener. “Crows” opens the album with slightly psychedelic,… Continue Reading →

Put on your bell bottoms, grab your lava lamp and jump in your shaggin’ wagon it’s time for another trip down nostalgia way. This time we are going via the desert road, which strangely is now winding around Yorkshire! Psychlona, since 2016 have been laying… Continue Reading →
Trondheim veterans Arabs In Aspic have been the standard bearers for the retro-rock and classic prog stylings in Norway for the past 15 or so years. With a big musical focus on making their sound and approach sound like an… Continue Reading →
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 →
