Dig!
In 1995/1996 The Dandy Warhol’s met The Brain Jonestown Massacre, this is the story about the love/ hate rivalry between the two and how each band takes road after road in different directions. ...
The Last Pogo
The Last Pogo is an all-too-brief 26-minute glimpse at the Toronto punk scene circa 1978. The film set out to document one last-hurrah at the Horseshoe Tavern, a venue that two promoters known a...Features
Nachtmystium at Sala Rossa with Boris and Torche
I was been a fan of ex-Nachtmystium alumni Aamonael's Avichi project and when the new Nachtmystium album Black Meddle came out I was blown away. So it was pretty exciting to have a chance to...

Munk
Cloudbuster
Gomma
Munk is really weird. It’s sort of a house/disco project, but it’s grittier than that. In fact it reminds me a lot of that early 90s industrial trend of the bands making the sort of funky meta...

Motley Crue
Saints of Los Angeles
Eleven Seven
Alright we could have some real fun here and try to figure out why Motley Crew is even bothering to try to restart their career. Was it purely a cash grab, IRS trouble, too many drugs, not enou...

His Name Is Alive
Firefly Dragonfly
Acuarela

Autres Directions In Music
Depth Affect are making a sort of glitch intelligent hip-hop, with this sort of twinkley edge to it, which I find very weird. I mean I like that current trend of doing a sort of idm/glitch/hop....

build buildings
ceiling lights form street
Independent
This is a great IDM record, no ifs ands or buts, just straight up IDM. Which, to be honest, is a little jarring these days, everyone is making hybrids of hybrids, but this is pretty straightfor...
