SOUTH OF HEAVEN

Band:FOTOCRIME
Album:SOUTH OF HEAVEN
Label:PROFOUND LORE RECORDS
Format:CD
Genre:DARK WAVE/POST PUNK

The new Fotocrime (the dark wave project of R. Patterson from acclaimed hardcore punk band Coliseum) full-length album South Of Heaven, the second full-length chapter in the project's narrative, finds comfort on the fringe. This is the backlit highway slithering from 2018's Principle Of Pain, which bowed at the altar of post-street punks Blitz while nodding at the megawatt gleam of Depeche Mode and churn of Red Lorry Yellow Lorry. The stories comprising this latest are winding and boundless, unfolding with unexpected paths and hairpin turns. Touching the myths of Saturn and Phaethon and mining the lives of Bruno Ganz and Francis Bacon, the album carves a landscape that spans both earthly and astral planes.It is a record for late night drives, a soundtrack for headlights illuminating the horizon. Produced by J. Robbins (Jawbox), with sessions recorded by legendary engineer Steve Albini (Shellac, Big Black, Nirvana etc) at Electrical Audio in Chicago, South Of Heaven features guest appearances by Hayden Menzies (Metz), Nick Thieneman (Young Widows), Janet Morgan (Channels), Erik Denno (Kerosene 454), and Rob Moran (Unbroken), and continues with a swim in the open wounds and spilt blood of heartbreak, a harp-tinged appeal for care and company, and a postmortem of derailed destinies. Crackling guitars and stutter-stepping synth make songs on here bona-fide grunge-wave burners.

THE BOAT OF THOUGHTS

Band:OCTOPUS
Album:THE BOAT OF THOUGHTS
Label:SIREENA
Format:LP
Genre:PROGRESSIVE/PSYCH

Back on vinyl! OCTOPUS "The Boat Of Thoughts"! 180 gram, Gatefold cover Listening to „Boat of Thoughts“ thirty years later reminds us to what famous acts ? Not even to former leading acts of complex compositions like Genesis, Gentle Giant, Yes, King Crimson, more likely to Beggars Opera or Camel, somewhat opulent and filigree at the same time and especially interesting in the teamplay of organ, keyboards, accoustic and electric guitar. OCTOPUS had anthem-like moments but also compact, hard guitar riffs, the nearly melodic Rickenbacher-bass, wonderful Moog solo parts, symphonic Mellotron strings and choirs, long passages, sacral, playful, ¾ beat and transversal metren. With so much composed virtuosity, which not only left space for guitar and keyboard but also for bass and drums beyond the usual accompaniment part, it needed a voice which was able to accomplish the band.

 

 

LIVE AT FIELDSTONE

Band:GARY DUNCAN QUICKSILVER
Album:LIVE AT FIELDSTONE
Label:SIREENA
Format:LP
Genre:WESTCOAST/JAM

Undoubtedly, Quicksilver Messenger Service along with Jefferson Airplane and Grateful Dead build up the first row of the West Coast Sound of the Psychedelic Era of the late 1960's! One of the highlights of each jam of the band was the crackling interaction between guitarists John Cipollina and Gary Duncan, who lashed each other to spacey heights, exemplary listening to the band's masterpiece "Happy Trails." What an album! John Cipollina has long been dead, but Gary Duncan continued the project under his name starting in the 1990s, recruiting interesting Bay Area musicians and making them one of the most popular jam bands again. The recordings of this record were made in 1997 in Fieldstone, CA and show Duncan and his Quicksilver Band once again immensely playful. The long, sprawling jams (between 8:34 and 15:46 minutes) range from classic West Coast rock to jazz and fusion. They are tangible songs that capture the sun and the special way of life in California and transfer it to the listener. Just like back then! Gary Duncan had been very pleased that Sireena Records turned to him and proposed to release these recordings on vinyl for the first time. He was already very ill at the time of the contact and died unfortunately on 29 June at the age of 72 years. Dedicated to his memory, this record is reminiscent of a wonderful man who had the hippie thought deep inside him - and a guitarist who was without any doubt one of the greats of his time!

Label:AAGOO RECORDS
Format:CD
Genre:ELECTRONIC/AMBIENT/ EXPERIMENTAL

Christopher Sky s new album What it is, it isn t was written as a transitional piece from purely ambient and contemporary classical music to a more rhythmic and beat driven project. The album originally started in 2018 as songs for the follow up to Vastness but was put away for another time. After some tours, some releases and some time off Christopher decided to revisit the ideas and chose to finish the record in 2019. The album is a big departure from Vastness . It s beat driven melodies and analog arpeggios paint the album with this warm Analog Blanket . Most of the recordings we caught on a vintage Akai 1810D reel to reel Tape Machine.Taking notes from his predecessors The Album Leaf, Tycho and Mice Parade, Christopher creates a sound that is both driving and contemplative. Songs link the single CZ97 and Knight of Cups use samba like rhythms layered over beautiful synthesizers and Vibraphone parts to capture an image of and sound that could only be his own. Still keeping true to his Christopher Sky sound, songs like Under the Waves and Travelers Theme give the album moments for pause and reflection. TRACK LISTING 1. Monochrome 2. From the Start 3. New Age 4. In a Hallway 5. CZ97 6. Under the Waves 7. Knight of Cups 8. Months Ago 9. Slowly 10. Travelers Theme

THE CHANGE I NEED

Band:HIGH OCTANE BOYS
Album:THE CHANGE I NEED
Label:SOUNDFLAT RECORDS
Format:7" vinyl
Genre:GARAGEPUNK

HIGH OCTANE BOYS are currently the top 60´s garage rock band in Norway. The group, consisting of veterans from the Norwegian surf/garage scene, started off playing a rawer kind of instrumental rock that gradually turned into a wild mix of fuzz and farfisa with fantastic vocals. When looking at their brand‐new 45 “The Change I Need”, covered in a stylish 60s‐stye‐artwork displaying their current line‐up in outlines, it immediately becomes obvious what their music is all about and where the boys draw their inspiration from – namely all these fantastic 60s Garagepunk‐pioneers such as THE MUSIC MACHINE, but also organ‐driven fuzzy garage‐revival‐bands from the 80s till now. “The Change I Need” will absolutely take you away – what a mighty sound with a heavy fuzz‐guitar, wild farfisa, a strong beat and vocals! This is downright fantastic songwriting reminding one of the likes of THE SATELLITERS. But don't be scared, the B‐side “Down On Boring Street” does not at all take you to musical Boring Street, but it does just the opposite! It is a catchy Garage‐dancer with a fine beat that you'll find yourself playing repeatedly. “The Change I Need” by HIGH OCTANE BOYS – a highly exciting must‐have 7” for any lover of garagepunk‐music!

II

Band:DEATH THE LEVELLER
Album:II
Label:CRUZ DEL SUR MUSIC
Format:CD
Genre:EPIC MELANCHOLIC METAL

Epic, melancholic and churning doom metal from Ireland. The first full-length from Ireland’s Death the Leveller, II combines dark, impenetrable doom with the sweeping arrangements of epic metal. There is an air of unassailable melancholy in Irish music. Its ballads, poetry, traditional music and folk traditions all carry the weight of loss of the men and women who experienced hardship and fought so vigorously for their country. Passed down through generations, it’s only natural for young musicians to have melancholy embedded in their DNA. What they do with it, however, is entirely up to them. For Death the Leveller, music is the outlet and the common bond between its four members. Therefore, it is no surprise their first full-length album, II, is the perfect union between dark, sweeping epic metal and doom.

Genre:ATMOSPHERIC BLACK METAL

Veterans from countless successful releases including a seminal split album (“Sol”, 2013) that cemented their friendship and earned them unconditioned esteem and love from the atmospheric black metal aficionados, SPECTRAL LORE's sole member Ayloss and Jacob Buczarski from MARE COGNITUM join forces once again for another mystical trip through the stars. Monumental and daring in its length as in its scope, "Wanderers: Astrology Of The Nine" is a thematic journey through our solar system, illustrating and anthropomorphizing it into mythology which parallels our own humanity with the science of these mysterious formations. “Inspired by Gustav Holst's Planets suite, we continue the exploration we began many years ago with 'Sol',” explain the artists; “we traverse outwards from the sun to each planet, weaving fables through a synthesis of their distinct physical features and a mythical personhood representing these features.”

From the vestibule of County Tipperary, Irish four piece zhOra have been slowly but steadily forging a niche of their own with a stylistic approach to sludge and progressive metal close to near a decade. Today the band unveil the detailing toward their fourth release Mortals, which is undoubtedly their most honest and with that conceivably pivotal. Drummer Tom Woodlock elaborates, "The songs all share the connection of being frustrated at something that’s out of your control, or controlling you or someone you care about. Sometimes there’s not much more you can do, than just scream into the wind about it. Across this record, it’s mainly severe mental issues, substance abuse, clerical abuse, death in general, just stuff that you can’t change. But you can rage about these things, and that is healthy and correct to do, which is the main theme for Mortals - 'Life sucks, get it off your chest'."

The Finnish duo proved their potency during the closing days of 2018 with their first full-length. Duly titled Praxis, indeed did it brim with a mysticism and magick that was simultaneously aeons-old and strikingly modern. A new classic in some circles but seemingly overlooked by the rest of the novelty-choked public, Praxis nevertheless laid firm a foundation upon which Aethyrick would most surely weave ever-more-grandiose spells. Aethyrick's second full-length spell, Gnosis, is a deceptively subtle spin in relation to its predecessor Praxis.

KILLING STARTS WHERE HATE BEGINS

Band:ENOCH
Album:KILLING STARTS WHERE HATE BEGINS
Label:SOUNDMASS
Format:CD
Genre:Metal

These days it often seems like a lot of the new talent is being overlooked, so it feels good that our first release for 2020 is from a new band – ENOCH. Well, they’re not exactly “new” – they’ve been gigging super regularly for a few years now around the North and South Islands of New Zealand. And “Killing Starts Where Hate Begins” is their 2nd release… and what a killer! Their sound is such a melting pot of detuned metal that it is hard to know how to describe them, so let’s call them an “alternative metal” band. There is no escaping their thick and heavy groove metal base that brings to mind bands like Pantera or Mudvayne, coupled with tribal drums rhythms ala Sepultura. However, there’s also enough melodic death metal influence to keep extreme metal fans happy as well. Couple this with the alternating sweet/aggressive vocals of Lorraine Brodie – reminiscent of Arch Enemy and Butcher Babies – and Enoch will leave a lasting impression. With their innovative song structures, there is enough variation from track to track that the band is unpredictable and never boring. Enoch’s in-your-face style is original and fresh… yet familiar. Taste it and see!
