How Comes the Constellations Shine ~ Belongs to Mafra
It’s uncommon for a band to break up, then return stronger than ever ~ but this rarity has just occurred. Portuguese band How Comes the Constellations Shine (once known as Purfect) is now down to its original member, guitarist Gonçalo Pereira. Last year,

Plankton Wat ~ Spirits
Name an album Dawn of the Golden Eternity, and you give a pretty clear idea of what’s going on inside. So perhaps it’s not surprising that Dewey Mahood – for he is Plankton Wat, as well as being one third

Man Forever ~ Pansophical Cataract
The players sit down. The tape starts rolling. ‘Ladies and gentlemen…’ announces the MC, ‘the very best of order. Drumroll, maestro, please.’ The drum begins rolling. A tom-tom, mind, not a snare. Then more drums. And then more. Then a

When Clouds Collide ~ We’re Just Making Sound
Post-rock has been around enough to inspire nostalgia, which is ironic considering the fact that the genre is still going strong. This nostalgia kicks in when fans hear music that exemplifies the “classic” post-rock sound: drums, bass, guitars, and occasional

L.T.D.M.S. ~ (« Insérer titre »)
Recommended if you like: roosters, flutes, and repetition. That’s not a common combination, but it’s a fair description of this 8-piece Belgian band’s 50-minute, 4-track post-rock album. The rooster comes into play on the first track, “Douze”, which is bracketed

These Ship Wrecks ~ Raw Powerless

Gargle ~ Glow in the Gloom

Cock And Swan ~ Stash
It’s probably wrong to limit albums to days of the week but Stash is very much a Sunday kind of record. For many of us, it’s the day we feel slightly more relaxed than usual, the pace of life just
