Reviews

L.A. Witch, DOGGOD
The tension between the bright, post-punk guitars and the darker aspects of the psyche expressed in the lyrics create something new and interesting for the LA trio’s third LP.
Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs, Death Hilarious
The UK stoner-metal outfit’s fifth studio album is another collection of pummelling, heavy thrills, the sound of grimy darkness being warped into something transcendently fun.
Glare, Sunset Funeral
Transfixing from start to finish, the South Texas shoegazers’ debut is a dynamic, undulating audio portrait of the ups and downs of existence.
