In case you’re unfamiliar with the proceedings of promo packages you get as a review site, let me tell you real quick that generally you get the (digital) record as well as a small biography of the band. When I read today’s band’s bio, one sentence caught my attention: “Yes, we have a young female […]

Trash Monday CXXVII
What we have here might officially be the weirdest music video ever. Enjoy. [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkZLl1CUT9s]
Homebound – Coming Of Age
Before I start today’s review, I have to admit that the main reason why I agreed to write about Homebound‘s EP Coming Of Age was the cover. I mean, a skyscraper-sized warthog can only mean greatness, right? Turns out my intuition didn’t betray me, because the music itself is quite worth listening to as well! […]
Trash Monday CXXVI
I have never tried any hallucinogens, but this is very much like I would imagine my trip… [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAvRWZPf9mY]
For All Those Sleeping – Incomplete Me
Moments like these always bring a smile onto my face, because it means that I’ve been doing this for a while, since one of my first reviews I wrote for El Gore was about the second album of today’s band: For All Those Sleeping! A bit more than two years later, they have just released […]
Slaves – Through Art We Are All Equals
Today’s review is about another very promising “newcomer”, even though I don’t really consider the quintet to be true newcomers since their lead singer is very well-known and him being famous definitely helped to put the band in the spotlight. However, I can’t hold it against Slaves for making use of that initial boost, since […]
Trash Monday CXXIV
Possibly the cheapest music video in the history of music videos? [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ruAi4VBoBSM]
Battleghost – Transient
Let’s face it: pop punk has been around for years and while there are a lot of bands in the genre, not a lot have what it takes to stand out from the mass. Today, I’m going to write a bit about Battleghost and their most recent EP Transient. The quartet plays a rather classic […]
Trash Monday CXXII
I’ve broken the tradition of choosing terrible songs for Trash Monday a couple of times in the past…and I’ll do so again today. I actually love this Dio cover by Killswitch Engage and I am very aware that the cheesiness of the video is on purpose but it makes me laugh every time, especially seeing […]
Everybody Looks Famous – Earth
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: I’m a sucker for pop punk with female vocals. No matter how good or bad the band is, I feel like I have to check them out and give them a chance. In the case of the UK-based Everybody Looks Famous that was actually a smart […]
