Alex's dumb 2011 list
Another year gone. I’ve listened to lots and lots of different music throughout the year, yet I didn’t really keep up with all the new releases (shame on me, I know): there are a couple of albums I still need to check out. But I think I can safely say 2011 has been a great year for music, we have seen many creative artists and bands entering the musical scene or leaving it (some...

idiocy's killa 2011 list
Howdy y’all! Well it’s that time of the year again! Time to get trampled to death in the shopping malls, curse at the weather gods for a lack of snow, augment waistlines in the name of festive dining, and, of course, look back at the year in music! So, notwithstanding the likely fact that you are fed up with year-end lists, I too have decided to jump on the bandwagon and look back at...

Band of the week: A Winged Victory For The Sullen
AWVFTS (even though I hate acronyms) is an American duo constituted of Dustin O’Halloran and Adam Wiltzie (Stars Of The Lid, Sparklehorse); the band’s label warns not to describe them as a “project” or “side project” and prefers to use “the future of the late-night record you’ve always dreamed of”. Big words. Words very well deserved, though;...

Band of the week: Converge
You might ask: “Hell, practically half of the world population knows Converge nowadays, what’s the point of making a post on them?”. And your question would be perfectly justifiable: Converge is a cult band. But I’m making a post on them because I had never been able to “get” them: I respected them, regarded them as a talented band but could never really get...
