Artist: October Tide Album Title: Winged Waltz Label: Agonia Records Date Of Release: 22 April 2016 I simply cannot believe that I don’t have any of the October Tide discography within my collection currently. It beggars belief on three counts: Firstly, I’m a bit of a sucker for that whole melodic dark/doom/death sound. Secondly October  Continue Reading »

Artist: Odd Logic Album Title: Penny For Your Thoughts Label: Independent Release Date Of Release: 26 March 2016 The first I knew of Odd Logic was as a result of an email to my Facebook page. The band was recommended to me by a reader and so it was only polite to have a listen.  Continue Reading »

Artist: Knifeworld Album Title: Bottled Out Of Eden Label: InsideOut Records Date Of Release: 22 April 2016 I vividly remember being confronted with the sounds of Knifeworld for the very first time.

My life would be much the duller without some brutality in it. I’m not, of course, talking about physical violence here. After all, I’m the kind of coward that runs away at the first  Continue Reading »

Artist: Rikard Sjöblom Album Title: The Unbendable Sleep Label: Gungfly Productions Year Of Release: 2016 I must be honest from the outset and say that I have never been a big fan of Beardfish. I should be, but their particular brand of progressive music has never really clicked with me. Having admitted this, an eyebrow  Continue Reading »

Artist: Brainstorm Album Title: Scary Creatures Label: AFM Records Year Of Release: 2016 Brainstorm are a band with whom I’ve had a patchy history. I discovered the German band whilst on holiday on the Greek island of Corfu of all places. I stumbled upon a record store in the capital and, following the advice of  Continue Reading »
