SOMETHING FOR THE WEEKEND?
Regan & Bricheno, The Folk Devils, Date At Midnight, Yakima Jera, Girls In Synthesis, Mission To The Sun, Dead, David J, Diathriba, Heimberg, Echoberyl, Spahn Ranch, Patriarchy and so, so much more...
The biggest and bestest news of the week has to be the appearance of the RGEN & BRICHENO album “Apparitions”, with its languid charm, atmospheric adventure and beguiling hypnosis.
Also, a bracing new album by the brilliant DATE AT MIDNIGHT:
