BLOODY DEATH – End Call ALBUM REVIEW
Acting as a compilation of some of the band’s previously released EP’s, End Call is a sweet and delightful helping of dirty, grimey indie goodness from the minds of Bloody Death, the second act to release music under the independent DIY label Sorbie rd. First glancing at the collective run-time of this release, it’s clear that…

Young Thug – Jeffery MIXTAPE REVIEW
The hip hop Ziggy Stardust and the human embodiment of being hard to pigeonhole, Young Thug certainly thrives off his unconventional style. This no doubt applies to his work load with Thugger being just as occupied as he was in 2015 with the final instalment of his Slime Season series landing along with I’m Up in the…

ALBUM REVIEW: Crystal Castles -Amnesty (I)
History is written by the victors. While this may be often applied to battles and the likes, the famous quote seems to hold some relevance whenever the turmoil that was the breakup of Crystal Castles comes into play. However, there wasn’t a victor so much as there was someone willing to carry on the name irregardless…

ALBUM REVIEW: Jamie T – Trick
It’s odd to think that at one point that Jamie T was essentially to indie rock what Frank Ocean was to the entire music scene prior to the release of Blond. While the quality of both artists can be debated, the way each of them managed to set the world on fire before somehow disappearing…

TRACK REVIEW: Slaves – Spit It Out
Having stated that their upcoming LP titled Take Control would be “heavy and very different” to their debut, it’s no surprise how colossal Slaves sound on Spit It Out.

Self loathing had never sounded as good as it did when the “worst named band in the country” Crywank dropped Tomorrow Is Nearly Yesterday And Everyday Is Stupid back in 2013, an album that manifested all the existentialism and pessimistic thoughts that run rampant in James Clayyon’s mind which had fueled most of the act’s work…

FAVOURITE ALBUM COVERS #3
Album covers were originally just flimsy bits of paper to try and protect the shiny goods underneath but they have since evolved into something that musicians can use for their artistic expression. Although many artists tend to go for a bland picture of themselves with an equally as bland background, some musicians have produced some…

ALBUM REVIEW: Biffy Clyro – Ellipsis
Not lacking the joy, discovery and invention which made them rock juggernauts, Biffy experiment further on their latest LP. Does it live up to the hype? It’s a relief to see that seven albums in a two decade spanning career haven’t rendered Biffy Clyro a serious and sulky version of their former selves. You’ve got the childlike “record…

FAV ALBUMS OF 2016 (SO FAR)
As we bid farewell to the first half of the year and set out for a new batch of high quality albums and singles, now is a better time than any to have a little retrospective on what we experienced or, better yet, enjoyed between January and July of 2016. Of course there are plenty that…
