Godflesh – Purge (Avalanche Recordings)

Anyone who follows Godflesh on social media cannot have helped notice comments from Justin Broadrick about how uncomfortable being scrutinised and questioned by fans of their music makes him feel. Battling with autism and PTSD his music is incredibly personal… Continue Reading →

Valborg – Der Alte (Lupus Lounge)

This German trio have quite the work ethic, releasing their eighth album here since the first ‘Glorification Of Pain’ back in 2009. Although I only discovered them relatively recently, tackling just three of their releases, it’s obvious that they are… Continue Reading →

Pencey Sloe – Neglect (Prophecy)

Well, this is ‘nice’ and that makes a change as it’s not a word that we use that often around these here parts. If you are looking for an album to while away a summer afternoon, lying on back in… Continue Reading →

Drug Honkey – Cloak Of Skies (Transcending Obscurity)

It’s been a long time brewing in the meth lab, we have not heard from musical chemists Drug Honkey since 2012 when they released last album ‘Ghost In The Fire.’ The Illinois based band have always been interesting and I… Continue Reading →

Rome in Monochrome – Karma Anubis (Wintersleep Records)

Now I’m sorry but this is just incredibly frustrating – a band comes to the table with a lengthy biography, extensive details on the band members’ past activities and some bold pronouncements of blending post rock, shoegaze and doom. Sounds… Continue Reading →

Disappears – Irreal (Kranky)

So we are more in Pitchfork than Iron Fist or Terrorizer territory here but we like to mix things up a bit and Disappears sound is certainly one that I am au fait with. I have fleeting memories of their… Continue Reading →
