This is the second Reverse Image album we have had the pleasure to review (you can read the first one here). Whereas the first album was more experimental in nature, this one continues on that vein, has has an even more sophisticated […]
Our friends at Kalamine Records introduce us to AGDISTIZ, a band who, if my memory serves me right, is from Romania. The drones here are sumptuous, like listening to a warm, thick drone during days when the cold is becoming crisper. Really […]
