Petrels ~ Onkalo

Oliver Barrett’s Bleeding Heart Narrative officially called it quits in late 2012, opening the door for more work under the Petrels name.  We’re a little bit greedy – we’d love to have both – but we’re overjoyed to hear this stunning follow-up

Adam Carpet ~ Adam Carpet

Caffeine is not needed to enjoy this album; Adam Carpet is caffeine.  Two bass guitars, two drummers, 65dos-electronics and a projection screen make for an energetic sound and stage show.  As evidence, check out the video for “Babi Yar” (below), whose selection and

Jay-Dea López ~ The Great Silence

This album begins with an insult: the 1788 declaration of British colonists that the Australian soundscape was “silent”.  This insulting statement inspired the phrase, “The Great Australian Silence”.  Even worse, the evil attitude that it exposed led to the mass

The Shaking Sensations ~ Start Stop Worrying

The Shaking Sensations have a new drummer!  No, they didn’t fire their old drummer, they added a second.  This upgrade has provided the Danish band with an obvious boost on their second album (and third release overall).  As early as a

Main ~ Ablation

First came Loop, then Main, then Robert Hampson put the pseudonym to rest and went it alone.  After 2006, fans were told they’d never hear another Main album again.  But the mourning was brief, because Hampson himself had not retired;

Marc Behrens ~ Queendom Maybe Rise

It’s been a while since we’ve heard a new full-length work from Marc Behrens, so it’s great to hear him back in action.  Queendom Maybe Rise is an album of two pieces, one long enough to be an album of its own
