Houratron – Prevenge

Let’s face it. When someone mentions Finnish music, 90% of us will immediately think of either goths or overly theatrical metal. Another 9% will think of glam metal. That’s just what Finland does, given the long dark Arctic nights … Read More

Violent Soho – Violent Soho

Well, despite the tongue-in-cheek attitude and wry humour in their approach, I would have to agree with the “violent” in Violent Soho’s name. It’s not screeching metal, but even at their most relaxed, they sound like Nirvana and the … Read More

Delta Maid – Broken Branches

Delta Maid’s latest E.P, Broken Branches, is an interesting little record. Opening with the titular track, the record clearly establishes itself as bridging the gap between folk and genuine country music. Delta Maid’s vocals are both twangy and smooth, and … Read More
