Indignu ~ Adeus
There’s a slight disadvantage to leading with one’s best, fullest track, as Indignu has done with “urge decifrar no céu.” One expects the entire album to sound like the (extended) single. Only after hearing the piece in context does the whole make

Bekah Simms ~ Bestiaries
Bestiaries is enthralling and unique. The music is a reflection of its cover art: a melange of intricacies, colorful, yet frightening, grotesque, yet intriguing. Centrediscs calls it “accessible yet uncompromising.” This is a fitting album for October, or for any time

Angus MacRae ~ Vivarium
Enter the Vivarium, a place forgotten, lost in the folds of the subconscious like a J.M. Barrie memory. This is the land to which one escaped as a child: a colorful wonderland of imagination and endless possibility. Sometimes the vivarium was
