We Lost The Sea – Departure Songs (Bird’s Robe Records)

The folks at Birds Robe have been busy re-issuing their catalogue, meaning that gorgeous looking CD’s filled with big post rock sounds have been dropping through my letterbox. With each dull thud on the door mat comes another collection of songs by a band… Continue Reading →

Troldhaugen – idio+syncrasies (Bird’s Robe Records)

Anybody up for some ‘circus-metal-prog-folk-rock’? Well, I’m not sure we were and the other writers have gone out of their way to avoid this one like thee plague, but that is what we have got and it comes down to… Continue Reading →
