Sieben - Each Divine Spark

2015-10-21 / Alastor / Reads: 4074

Fact that Howden is an outstanding musician probably no one needs to prove; he proved it himself on his previous albums. But hardly anyone expected that "Each Divine Spark" will raise the bar even higher. Well, history shows that sometimes after releasing opus magnum, musicians are able to surpass their...

Shrine - The Final Asylum

‘The Final Asylum’ is a brilliant album. Writing anything more would be tantamount to erecting a shrine of Hristo Gospodinov and starting a new religion.

The year 1995 marked the start of a new band: Sharon Next. After 15 years of good music, we got another proof of their musical ideas: Fast Farewell. The album means 11 tracks, every piece of it drives the listener into a magic world full of love, trust, hope or...
