Moddi - Floriography Perhaps it is a slow quiet kind of resignation or maybe it is the gentle warmth that it embodies that carries on with me long after the music stops that makes me feel a kind of kinship with this album. MODDI displays an agonising relatability in the songs here. For example Stuck In … Continue reading WORDS FROM THE TEAM: Jacob’s Album Of The Month – April 2023
Red Rum - Book Of Legends I figured out it's been nearly ten years since I came across RED RUM, the most dastardly and delightful bunch of scallywags of the East Midlands. Over this near decade, they have brought me joy through their brilliant tales of the sea and their wonderfully, fun live shows. Their … Continue reading WORDS FROM THE TEAM: Lotty’s Album Of The Month – April 2023
Freya Ridings - Freya Ridings Whilst it's rare for me these days to take to a new artist that isn't rock or metal, it's a welcome breath of fresh air. The latest artist to do this for me is singer-songwriter Freya Ridings. I came across her by chance when her latest single Weekends appeared on … Continue reading WORDS FROM THE TEAM: Lotty’s Album Of The Month February 2023
Halestorm - Back From The Dead I realised I have missed the last two months to let you know what my album of the month is and I will tell you why. For the past year, I have lost my confidence in my ability to run this website and my skills as a writer. Lots … Continue reading WORDS FROM THE TEAM: Lotty’s Album Of The Month November 2022
Dynazty - Final Advent To honour the fifteen anniversary of Sophie Lancaster's passing, the theme for this album of the month is Proud To Be You. So my choice for this month was a no brainer for me; I had the pleasure of reviewing DYNAZTY's Final Advent and it quickly became an album I could … Continue reading WORDS FROM THE TEAM: Lotty’s Album Of The Month August 2022
Wonders - The Fragments Of Wonders I have been listening to The Fragments Of Wonders album by WONDERS quite a lot this month, not only from the comforts of my desk whilst I continue to primarily work from home but also when I do make that rare trip into the office in my car and … Continue reading WORDS FROM THE TEAM: Martin’s Album Of The Month July 2022
Visions Of Atlantis - Pirates My choice for May's album of the month was a no brainer for me. The moment I signed up to VISIONS OF ATLANTIS' latest voyage Pirates, I knew this was an experience I wanted to embark upon time and time again. In terms of tying this in with the theme … Continue reading WORDS FROM THE TEAM: Lotty’s Album Of The Month May 2022
Woods Of Ypres - Woods 4: The Green Album Arpeggiated minor chords rise and fall, slow but well paced, ponderous and pulling along which are shortly joined with ethereal but hollow strings and a voice that brings weight but is barely singing. A love song after the love, a breakup in which the participants are … Continue reading WORDS FROM THE TEAM: Jacob’s Album Of The Month May 2022
Ghost - Impera It was a tough choice between two albums for my album of the month as they were both hugely helpful in different ways. I had an unexpected family bereavement happen a month ago; whilst I knew it was important to keep on going and focus on the positives, I learnt it's also … Continue reading WORDS FROM THE TEAM: Lotty’s Album Of The Month April 2022
Fury - Born To Sin Whilst this album only came out last week, I have wholeheartedly been enjoying it all month long. The fourth studio album by FURY is a blistering assault on the senses from start to finish. There is a wide variety of influences that come to fruition throughout which enables this release … Continue reading WORDS FROM THE TEAM: Martin’s Album Of The Month March 2022
