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.

Death From Above 1979 – You’re A Woman, I’m A Machine

2004. Two men. One on bass guitar. One on drums. Result: pure insanity. In case you don’t own this album yet then it’s about time! A legal drug you can purchase in every record shop that has the guts to sell this. Or the internet, source of information, stupidity and craziness. Turn It Out, threatening …

Crippled Black Phoenix – I, Vigilante

No new fresh food on my desk, so let’s talk a little bit about one of my favourite albums of 2010. Be ready for a laudation because I haven’t found much to criticize until this day. Started as a project of a collection of many well or less known post-rock musicians, Crippled Black Phoenix seems …

The Jacob Conspiracy – Colourful Crime

I’m pretty sure that the boys from the Jacob Conspiracy don’t want to hear it anymore (maybe they do, I actually haven’t talked to them), but let’s call a spade a spade: this album sounds like a Foo Fighters album. Is that a bad thing? Not at all! However, there are two differences between the …
