Reviews
Brigid Dawson & The Mothers Network – Ballet Of Apes
Castle Face“Ballet Of Apes is pretty cool the more you get to know it. Just don’t go expecting it to put out on the first date.”

Moon Glyph“Think music’s all out of ideas these days? Think again. Fishland is nothing if not unique.”
Munehiro Narita – Live P.S.F.
Cardinal Fuzz/Feeding Tube Records“Narita slays, his Live PSF a siren call for all absent gig-goers the world over.”
Banshee – Livin’ In The Jungle

ZekeUltra – (The Power Of) The Will Of Man
Home Assembly Music“I have no idea what ZekeUltra’s record collection looks like … an obscure hot pot of the weird and wonderful perhaps”

GR – THE GR RECORD HEAD
Cardinal Fuzz/Opaque Dynamo“chatters away just on the wrong side of comprehensibility – just how many people does he want us to kill?”
Cole Pulice – Gloam
Moon Glyph“for those given the horn by brass this rare strain of New Age jazz may just prove essential”
Lavender Flu – Barbarian Dust
In The Red“spending their time equally between discordant garage-punk and lightly psychedelic guitar-pop.”
