Album Review: Lou Rhodes – Theyesandeye
It’s been ten years since Lamb released their stirring electronic anthem ‘Gorecki’. Their dark, genre bending sound put them up with their contemporaries of the time; Massive Attack, Tricky, and Portishead. It was very much the sound of the time, but they did it differently and created something above and beyond what anyone else was …
Track: Korn – Rotting In Vain
Legendary Nu-Metaller’s Korn have announced a few details about their 12th studio album ‘The Serenity Of Suffering’ which will be released October 21st and by the sounds of the killer track they released a few days ago, Rotting In Vain, it seems like it’s going to be monstrously heavy. If the Korn of old are back …
Album Review: The Erised – Room 414
When you think of Hospital Records, you no doubt think of drum & bass madness. They have launched the careers of the likes of High Contrast, London Elektricity and Danny Byrd. But their sister label Med School has given fans of electronic music something different; something more experimental. And with the release of the debut …
Track: Vimes – Kyra
German duo Vimes have a new track ahead of their “Nights in Limbo” album due in February next year. Starting a lot like LFO, Kyra builds into a seven minute squelchy slow burn, backed by synths, industrial fans and mumbled, mournful vocals. A tour is promised in the spring. One to keep an eye out …
The Provincial Archive: Bad Connection
“But Craig, isn’t rock ‘n’ roll dead ?” No. Turns out that our Edmonton heroes, The Provincial Archive, are reincarnated proof. Back as a three-piece, having said good bye to Ryan Podlubny and Nathan Burge, new single ‘Bad Connection’ finds them in fine, punching form. Singer and guitarist Craig Schram, and drummer Bramwell Park, have been …
Album Review: Deerhunter – Fading Frontier
Since 2005, Bradford Cox and the Deerhunter boys have consistently released interesting and unique music. Whilst essentially they would fit into the indie/rock department of your local record store (if such a thing still exists) they have constantly shifted through genres like new outfits. Throughout their career they have moved through rock, phsyc, ambient, and …
Album Review: Hurts – Surrender
I must admit to having a bit of a crush on Hurts’ frontman Theo Hutchcraft. He is stylish, debonair, with a dry wit. As a vocalist he manages to pour so much emotion into his performance. And as part of a duo, has helped create two stellar pop albums. Hurts appeared on the scene in …
Track: Paves – ‘Dancing ’til The End Of Time’
With a lot of releases in recent years, the term throwback has almost become meaningless. It’s a term that has become overused and as more and more modern releases seemingly take more than inspiration from certain styles, it’s got to the point where they’re missing what made these styles great in the first place. Now …

Ever get fed up of your music collection? Tire of all the usual indie guitars and house beats? Well maybe you need something completely different. Something unlike anything else you have been listening to. Keep reading. ‘Hear You’ is the new album from Japanese math-rockers Toe, released on Topshelf Records. It is predominantly an instrumental …
