Headcharger – Slow Motion Disease
30 April 2012 | aaamusicI’m not a massive metal fan, so I’m almost certainly not the target audience for Headcharger’s latest album, Slow Motion Disease. However, from a completely impartial musical standpoint, it just isn’t very good. In fact, it’s mostly awful. All … Read More

The Imagined Village – Bending the Dark
29 April 2012 | aaamusicThere’s nothing worse than listening to one song on an album, deciding it’s unique, and then assuming the other songs on the album are going to be mind-blowing, only to discover the majority of them sound pretty similar, in … Read More

Guile – Alone on The West
29 April 2012 | aaamusic
Guile’s debut album Alone on the West is a rebellious mix of garage and psychedelia worthy of the most well-deserved Black Rebel Motorcycle Club comparison ever. They share a certain dialogue between sacred and profane, sin and pride. Reprobate Lover … Read More
East Island City – Me And What Army?
29 April 2012 | aaamusicEast Island City are a pop-rock band from Dublin, Ireland. Their new EP, Me And What Army? opens with a deceptively acoustic, endearing and sweet song, Feels Like Home To Me. From this I expected the same for the … Read More
