Darren McClure ~ The Black Kite
The black kite is a raptor. Yes, just like the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park. Fish, bats, smaller birds and *cough* roadkill and garbage are their chosen prey ~ the latter “victims” have earned the species the cruel nickname “shite-hawk”. But look

Svarta Stugan ~ Svarta Stugan
The Swedish duo Svarta Stugen calls its sound “post-rock/twee noise, a cuter form of noise”. The definition sounds daft until one listens ~ then it fits. Their self-titled debut EP begins in typical post-rock fashion, then mutates into something unrecognizable, as if
