Celtic Frost – Morbid Tales, To Mega Therion, Into The Pandemonium, Vanity/Nemesis, Innocence & Wrath REISSUES
While most Thrash fans during the ’80s were concentrating on the burgeoning scenes in the US, Germany, and to a lesser extent, the UK, bands from a number of other, slightly less fashionable, countries were also getting in on the act.

Ulver – The Assassination Of Julius Caesar
Ulver has made a career of doing the unexpected and turning it into a sublime musical journey.

The subject matter is fun, racy and rebellious while maintaining a very strong sense of confidence and awesome female empowerment. Like an all-girl gang that will take your pinball money at the roller rink, but wink at you as they walk away.Continue reading

Remembering David Bowie
We should start with a statement of the obvious. David Bowie will never be forgotten.

To reflect and consider in our ADHD, always on culture about the power, influence, and imagination of The Thin White Duke.Continue reading
