The band I would like to talk about today doesn’t need any introduction for those who’re profoundly into post-punk music. Since 1975, Chrome has been a household name for post-punk, proto-industrial, goth rock, acid-punk, experimental rock scenes and still goes strong today. Since its inception, the group suffered the death of one of the original… Read More Chrome – Scaropy CD (Cleopatra Records)
I have to admit I looked forward to listening to and writing about this particular release. There’s something eerie, strange, obscure about the appearance and sound of this group. Call it however you want, but the weird and unique sound is more than welcome on Thoughts Words Action. It comes as a desperately needed refreshment… Read More Momy Fortuna – Hexennacht

I had the privilege to listen and review a decent amount of their… Read More Ester Poly – Wet LP (Hummus Records)
I have to admit I was so excited when I heard the new ActionMen vinyl record going to land soon. It is one of those bands you surely do not want to miss if you are into technically demanding skate punk sound with lots of fast-paced sequences, breaks, and accentuations.

It’s been a while since I introduced some ethno/world music on these pages, so this recording came just in time to serve the occasion. However, this is not a regular ethno or world music album. This one comes with a twist, a carefully assembled mixture of several other genres to be more precise. One thing… Read More Multumult – Now And Then CD (lollipoppeshoppe)
To be quite honest, I listened to a decent amount of noise releases over twenty years or so, but I rarely stumbled upon collections and selected works. Don’t get me wrong, I am not saying these compilations don’t exist, but for some reason, they’re rare, and noisicians are usually sticking to the recently recorded material.… Read More Noisesculptor – Ordinary Mind Disorders 2xCD (Unsigned Label)
After the first edition of Adventures In Lo-Fi, Holy B makes a proper comeback with a brand new material that goes way beyond countless music genres.

It has been a while since I wrote about experimental music on these pages due to some responsibility towards other music genres. A pile of avant-garde releases awaited on the shelf for a couple of months, so finally, the time has come to dedicate a couple of posts to the releases I received from the… Read More ParaNoiZ – The Rules Of Free Improvisation CD

It’s always encouraging to see how some underground record labels are growing rapidly fast.
