I wonder if they can keep this work rate up, six albums in practically as many years is some going. The challenge is keeping them diverse and interesting, which so far, they have. All aboard the Pattern-Seeking Animals express, next stop in about a year?
This album is one of those that gets better with every play. There will be more from this man, of that I have no doubt and I will be on the lookout for it.
These early steps on what should be a very promising journey for the band firmly states their intent to succeed. It’s a relatively short glimpse into what this band is about and hopefully there will be more to come soon.
Denver’s Atmospheric Black / Post Metal outfit Harboured are presenting an excellent specimen of their style, with their sophomore full-length “We’re Only the Love That We Lead”
Picking my favourite tracks was difficult because there isn’t a bad one amongst them. Influences are inevitable and sometimes obvious here and there but that doesn’t diminish the fact that this is a great album.

Some bands need an hour to work their way through ten or twelve songs. Temple Fang needed only three. At Down The Hill, their set consisted of “Harvest Angel”, “The River” and “Flood” – three long-form compositions that felt far less like separate songs than one...
Naxatras – Between Cosmic Precision and Free Psychedelia Naxatras are one of those bands whose evolution becomes perhaps even clearer on stage than on record. Anyone who mainly knows them from their early, sprawling psychedelic jams might be surprised by how far their...

Some concerts already have a story before the first note is played. Hooverphonic at Het Groot Verlof was one of those nights. Earlier that evening, the Oude Markt had watched Belgium’s World Cup quarter-final against Spain together. Belgium lost, and for a moment it...

BEAT – Not a Museum Piece, but a Living Machine King Crimson has never been one fixed memory for me. I saw the later incarnation with three drummers in Antwerp: an impressive, almost ceremonial machine in which the repertoire unfolded as a broad musical landscape. I...
