Aloha dear readers :) The fall seasons gets off the ground. We have great late summer weather here and the first big tour packages have started their run. Many, many great bands are on tour and being a concert-goer it’s getting hard again to decide for one show. Too bad we can be at different places at the same time *sighs* Anyway… here we go with our September news:
• Albums Of The Month •
We did it twice again, and, regarding our discussions, we should actually have like 4 albums of the month or so ;) Ok, we decided for two and will additionally give special recommendations ;) Is just fair this way, isn’t it?
Our two favorites are PORCUPINE TREE – The Incident and INSOMNIUM - Across The Dark Next to the pole positions we have SECRETS OF THE MOON – Privilegivm and GHOST BRIGADE – Isolation Songs.
Our special recommendations go to SININE – Butterflies and JORDAN REYNE – How The Dead Live. Check them out, they are awesome!
