Kiros – Lay Your Weapons Down
3 February 2012 | aaamusicListening to Kiros’ ‘Lay Your Weapons Down’, I’m teleported back to the surreal land of musical discovery I went though a few years back, dabbling in that nebulous region of “emo” and discovering that rather American brand of introspective … Read More

Mark Lanegan – Blues Funeral
