LaFaro aroused my curiosity a few weeks ago, so I decided to buy their two releases blindly. Was it a good decision? Yes, Sir! With their second album, Easy Meat, the boys from Belfast just lift off like a rusty rocket. Their sound compromises Thrash and (Post-)Hardcore elements, mixed with a pinch of Metal and …

Mew – And The Glass Handed Kites
released: 2005 Label: Red Ink (Rough Trade) Have you ever listened to an album that was just too much for your musical horizon? And have you ever tried to listen to it again, a few years later; just to figure out that the album is genius and awesomeness in one? I have! The first time …
Arkaeon – New Level Of Inhumanity EP
An EP of a young Luxembourgish Death Metal band fell into our lucky hands a few weeks ago. To write it short and simple: it is terrific! And that normally is a good thing for Death Metal. The booklet already perfectly puts this experience in a nutshell: “Together we try to create our very own sound …
Boris – Pink
Boris have released a whole bunch of albums since 1996, and I have to admit that I don’t know that much about their other works. They are known to switch their musical style pretty often. Their repertoire reaches from psych to hard rock, from drone to sludge, from electro to pop. There is one particular …
Kraton – Ker
There is one typical excuse Luxembourgish people use to explain our bad football results. This sentence always refers to the amplitude of the country. When our national team loses 5:0 against Timbuktu again, the media just as the inhabitants note that the result is not that bad if you consider that Luxembourg is such a …
Mr. Oizo – Stade 2
First off, if you’re into “cheap” electronic music and think David Guetta is an angel sent from heaven, you should not read any further. Just go to McDonalds and enjoy your Happy Meal as it is easily digestible. Thank you. Quentin Dupieux a.k.a. Mr. Oizo did it again. He released another banger of a record …
Turbowolf – Turbowolf
Beelzebub’s newest breeds call themselves Turbowolf. Striking riffs, powerful lyrics, wolves on fire, the turbo is loaded right from the start. The fact that sometimes you get the suspicion to have heard all this once before in the past doesn’t dampen the mood. Young Alice Cooper welcomes you on the journey through the river Styx. …
Tweak Bird – Tweak Bird
As you may have noticed I’m in a mood for simple rock music these days. Well then let’s have a look at another band which doesn’t need complex arrangements or five different instruments to knock me out of my socks. Dirty guitar, aggressive drumming, The Future’s coming, that’s how Tweak Bird’s second and self titled …
Tame Impala – Innerspeaker
And now to something completely different: psychedelic rock. This is about another of my favourite albums of 2010, which is already a lie, because I only discovered this band in 2011. It became my personal soundtrack of the summer, and the story behind this band is an exceptional one, considering the business that rules nowadays. …
Midnight – Farewell To Hell
Midnight‘s “Farewell to Hell” is a unique, true, authentic, raw, primitive, Venom/Hellhammer-esque 1st wave Black Metal Ep with Motörhead, dirty rock and roll and oldschool Punk influences! This is pure evil and really cool! Buy the record! [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvENCRNKCQo] P.s. Be prepared for their first full-lenght record: Satanic Royalty.
