Herod – Iconoclast (Pelagic Records)

Sitting at my place of work for a change and rather than staring at the flora and fauna and phalanxes of ants and battalions of birds in my glorified shed at the bottom of my garden, I am in the… Continue Reading →

Desolat – Songs Of Love In The Age Of Anarchy (Bloodshed666 Records)
