ALBUM REVIEW: A Life Divided – Echoes
The eighties is easily my favourite decade of music, particularly when it comes to rock.

One of Finland’s finest hard rock/ heavy metal bands and one of the best bands ever to win the Eurovision song contest back in 2006. LORDI are back with a great album.

ALBUM REVIEW: Miles To Perdition – 2084
To all Melodic Death Metal and Metalcore fans! This is the latest album from the band MILES TO PERDITION, a band hailing from Luxembourg.

ALBUM REVIEW: Terry Draper – Sunset On Mars
I’m a progressive music fan; progressive rock is awesome, progressive metal is excellent. I’ll even dabble in the avant-garde when the mood should take me. But I don’t think I’ve ever experienced progressive pop. Or have I? Back in 1976 the band KLAATU released a song called Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft, it reached number … Continue reading ALBUM REVIEW: Terry Draper – Sunset On Mars
