Hello world. It is Friday again and this time I really had my difficulties to choose a movie in order not to stick to these weird Japanese flicks I reviewed so often in the last weeks. While browsing through the internet I came across a very interesting movie title and auspicious trailer. Unfortunately I couldn’t …

Abstract Rapture – Earthcrush
It’s time for another well-known Luxembourgish band: Abstract Rapture. These guys have been around for close to ten years and in 2011 they released the long-awaited follow-up to their 2008 album Democadencia. The rather fitting title they chose: Earthcrush. Please note that because of scheduling problems the release party for the album was only in …
Type O Negative – Slow, Deep And Hard
This time around I decided to review an album I hold dear as I discovered it at the right time and connected with Pete(r) Steele and his vocals/lyrics instantly. So I apologize for the long emotional diarrhoea that is to follow. Type O Negative are a band that I first heard back in 1995. I …
Trash Monday XXXI
The Hero of my youth: Hulk fucking Hogan! Incredibly great stuff and yes I loved wrestling in the good old nineties. [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsXNIN-YH7M]
The Cabin In The Woods
I have to warn you: today’s review is going to be slightly different than the ones you’re used to. First of all, it’s not written by our resident movie junkie but by the “I like metalcore” guy, which means that it’s going to be a rather recent flick. Secondly, it will be rather short in …
Torche – Harmonicraft
Two-horned creatures puking rainbows in a pink candy-sky-land. One of those covers that just oblige you to buy the album, no matter how it sounds. The good thing in this case: it doesn’t just look like a drug trip becoming true, it also rocks butts right from the beginning. And I can’t believe that the …
Desdemonia – Existence
There is one Luxembourgish band that probably everyone from the metal scene of the country has heard about and has most likely also seen live at some point. I’m of course talking about the death metal legends Desdemonia. This quartet has probably been the pioneer of heavy music in our little country and has celebrated …
Trash Monday XXX
The “interesting” music is one thing, but what makes this so compelling is the music video…ladies and gentlemen I present to you: Crabcore. PS: Special mention for the scene at 1:17. [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDzt6yI3Dw8]
Gothic & Lolita Psycho
I most definitely developed a psychological unnatural affection for what I define as “Postmodern Japanese Cyber-Punk” movies in the last few years. I still do not know if I am ever able to review every single genre flick or if I simply get bored with these arterial blood sprayings, mutants, zombies, vampires and Japanese girls …
Fights and Fires – The Proof That Ghosts Exist
The Proof That Ghosts Exist (or how I would say: “the proof that totally unknown bands selling totally cheap CDs can actually be pretty catchy!”) is the 2011 release by the 4 young Englishsmen Fights and Fires. “Fights and who..?” you might ask now. Well, the boys have started to build up some reputation in …
