Black Nail Cabaret - Satisfaction

2015-12-16 / RobertSaligia / Reads: 4742

Black Nail Cabaret is a female duo originating from Budapest (Emese "Emke" Árvai-Illes responsible for vocals and Zsofia "Sophie" Tarr behind the keyboards). Despite their name, they do not create in dark cabaret style. Synthpop plays. And no, they do not imitate Ladytron. "Satisfaction" single is the second foretaste...

(((S))) - Welcome To The Heartland

2015-12-11 / Alastor / Reads: 3791

So "Welcome to the Heartland" is a very decent lo-fi/indie/post-punk that in handful draws from achievements of groups like Guided By Voices, and Sonic Youth. Completely honest - little gothic and little pure darkness. In no case, however, it does not affect the picture of the whole - we are...

I will write directly: I have no idea how to bite Celldweller’s new album. On one hand, we get a pack of pretty decent instruments, but on the other - there is nothing new for an attentive listener. Unfortunately, "Transmissions Vol. 01" miss a lot to the level of "Wish...

Sieben - Each Divine Spark

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...
