65%This Vision - The Golden Age We Lost2012-08-16 / Fairycharlotte / Reads: 2892"The Golden Age We Lost" is the second album by the Swedish duo This Vision, however, I have never heard this band before.

Yet, in the middle of Pacific Ocean was created a project that could with no shame fight against many aces of climatic playing coming from Europe and, what is more, could win the battle without... |
70%TO AVOID - All Gods Are Gone2024-10-02 / khocico / Reads: 978Berlin-based TO AVOID has been redefining the dark electro scene since their formation in 2000, blending late '80s EBM with '90s melodic dark electro, and adding a modern, genre-crossing twist. Their live performances are electric—having seen them at the NCN Festival, I can confirm their stage presence channels the raw,... |
