Today I have the great pleasure of writing about a genre that is severely underrepresented in our local music scene, at least to the best of my knowledge: alt-pop! Marcy has been around for about three years but in that short amount of time she has managed to hit quite a few milestones, with the …

Abstract Rapture – Ascension To Downfall
Believe it or not, but this time around it only took six years instead of eight for Abstract Rapture to release a new album! But rest assured, just as last time, it was worth the wait! Ascension To Downfall is going to be released this Saturday, October 18th, and I had the opportunity to spend …
Argon – Vigor Sorority Decay
I like to think that I am fairly in touch with what is going on in the non-mainstream music scene here in Luxembourg, but when I first read about Argon around five months ago, I was completely unaware of their existence. But it turns out that they have been around for nearly a decade without …
Gofai – Safety, Always Off
Noise rock is among one of the genres that I have gotten into more recently, as in more or less five years ago, and it is definitely a gift that keeps on giving. Today’s band is a perfect exemple of what I like about the genre, and even of what I dislike about it. But …
Parity – Zero Sum Game
Here’s a sentence I rarely get to write out these days: it’s been a little over a year since the last release of today’s band and yet, they have a new one coming out in just three short days! I’ve had the pleasure of diving into Parity’s first full length album Zero Sum Game a …
Tardis – For A While They Lived Together In A Treehouse
Truth be told, I rarely revisit albums that I’ve reviewed, simply because I’ve usually listened to that record about thirty times in relatively quick succession and I need to move onto the next one. This also means that after a while I forget the details of an album or what I particularly liked about it, …

Sublind – Metalmorphosis
This past decade has seen a massive surge in remakes, remasters, reboots and reimaginings in pretty much every artistic category, be it video games, movies, TV shows or music. While I, personally, don’t mind them at all, I know that a lot of people are annoyed by the lack of innovation across the different industries…which …
Top 10 2024 by Yannick
What a year it’s been! So many wonderful new releases of old bands, new bands, local bands, big bands, from across all genres…truly a plethora of great music across the board. Which naturally means that choosing a top ten this year was more difficult than ever before. However, it was made a little easier because …
Coldspine – Nullpunkt
I’d argue that some genres just feel more appropriate during specific seasons, and one of those is doom metal. It just fits these gloomy and cold days perfectly, and the weather just makes you appreciate the music even more. Which is why Coldspine‘s new album Nullpunkt is the ideal travel companion for December. Let me …
Blame The Others – Guilt To Last
Today’s review is technically about a new band but most of its members have been, or still are, in bands before and it can be felt in every note. Blame The Others came onto the scene at the beginning of 2023 and, after releasing a few stand-alone singles, have decided to drop an EP, titled …
