Loreena McKennitt - An Ancient Muse

2007-07-25 / apeiron / Reads: 3603

The return of the Lady is something one should wait for. Patiently. If it's the Lady of the Music like Loreena McKennitt the waiting, even if it's ten-year long, will be compensated. Abundantly – in this case. After the decade of absence on the musical stage, Loreena returns...

Front Line Assembly - Fallout

2007-07-11 / ZEKintha / Reads: 14416

The majority of tracks placed on the most recent album of Front Line Assembly “FALLOUT” are remixed tracks from the previous album. Many of them are far more energetic and dancy than usual – to sum up – it seems to be perfect for a party. When you...
