Before I commence with the review for the new work by Canterbury’s finest five piece, there are several questions I need to ask. Do you like Doom? Do you prefer to listen to whole albums rather than disposable single track… Continue Reading →
Antidiluvian. Before the (biblical) flood. Curious. It’s always kinda hard delving deep into such naming without lyrics but just take a look at that cover art and your mind goes spinning off into all sorts of weird, elder god haunted… Continue Reading →
I was lucky enough to catch some of this album live when this London based act supported Wiegedood. At the time I mentioned that I hoped the album would find its way to me and lo it has. This is… Continue Reading →
