In It ~ None of That Matters
By the sound of the track titles, someone has just exited a bad relationship: “We Don’t Speak Anymore”, “All We Could Have Done”, “None of That Matters”. But by the sound of the music, someone has moved on: found a

One’s enjoyment of this album will likely hinge on one’s regard for repetition. When a loop changes timbre yet repeats for 25 minutes, is this a good thing or bad? Is the intricate process behind such tweaking fascinating to the

Nurse With Wound and Graham Bowers ~ Rupture
One hour, three minutes and thirty seconds of death: that’s one way to describe Rupture, and in this case, the description is literal. This concept album seeks to “create a musical illustration” of the dying brain following a stroke; and
