I’m not sure whether the guy is entirely serious about his musical career, I do hope not though… [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MV4vmqpiVag]

August Burns Red – Rescue & Restore
If there is one sentence that I’ve heard too often from bands it’s: “this new record is the best one so far, etc etc”. More often than not, this promise is not kept. In the case of August Burns Red‘s new release Rescue & Restore however, it is more than just true…it’s an understatement: their […]
I The Mighty – Satori
Post-hardcore fans rejoice: the drought is finally over! June marks the release of I The Mighty‘s debut album Satori which, to me, is the first true release of the genre this year! When the band released their single Speak To Me in April I was severely stoked and was expecting to be completely blown away […]
One Last Breath – Will You Make Me A Sandwich If I Make Some Noise?
Today I will review the debut album Will You Make A Sandwich If I Make Some Noise? of the local melodic metalcore band One Last Breath. The band is still fairly unknown but the guys have been working on their record for some time now, so let’s see what there is to say about it, […]
Sleeping With Sirens – Feel
If there’s one criticism people sometimes utter when it comes to music that I absolutely despise, it would be “Band XYZ’s new album sucks because it sounds nothing like their old stuff”. Seriously? If you want a band to sound the same as you’re used to, just go listen to their previous records. I, for […]
Close Your Eyes – Empty Hands And Heavy Hearts
Today I want to do something slightly different by asking you a question: has it ever happened to you that you listened to a record when it first came out, dismissed it because you didn’t like it; then a couple of years later you randomly gave it another listen and you ended up loving it? […]
Trash Monday LXX
The video, the lyrics, the voice, the everything…except the solo. This video fulfills every heavy metal cliché there is. [youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgzFMPPH340]
Anamanaguchi – Endless Fantasy
Last week has been a big week for “electronic” music, at least in my book. Daft Punk pre-streamed their new album and Anamanaguchi released their new Endless Fantasy. While I was slightly underwhelmed by the former, the latter entirely blew me away…but let me introduce you to the band first. Anamanaguchi are an American quartet […]
The Convois – Ocean’s Tale
Have you ever gone to a small gig to maybe watch some of your friends play, but aside from them you didn’t know any other band that was set to appear that night? Well, exactly that happened to me last Saturday when I went to Soul Kitchen in Luxembourg for the Locals Fest 3. As […]
LIGHTS – Siberia Acoustic
Today I want to explore a very different aspect of my musical spectrum…and I want to take you on a journey to Siberia. More precisely Siberia Acoustic, which is the second of its kind by Canadian artist LIGHTS. As with her first synthpop album The Listening, where she released a five track EP simply called […]
