Review: Lee Wanner – Every Man Is An Island

by Dæv Tremblay

[Stream the album here]

LeeWanner-EveryManIsanIslandLee Wanner is a particular fellow, music-wise. His now defunct (from what I understood) band, Rejectionary Art, released one album of pure heavy grooviness, and one other of varied musical genres applied to djent, the latter in a rather small dose. All the while, his solo albums ranged from purely jazz awesomeness to weird and creepy classical music with foley, and a funky 80s-style album, among other ones. Now, with Every Man Is An Island, Lee seems to have gathered all these varied experience to make something truly, strangely, weird and good!

Here’s some stats about our bandcamp page!

by Dæv Tremblay

Since we started to host amazing albums on our own bandcamp page, in March 2014, with the outstanding Fountainhead album Fear Is The Enemy, many other artists agreed to have their album hosted there, totally free, for you guys, the readers and the fans of great music; those who will seek out new challenging music.

We now have 30 (yes, thirty!) albums totally available for free, and ranging from New Apple Taste’s jazz-rap (razz?), to OhBree’s brass-tinted experimental folk, uSSSy’s microtonal middle-Eastern rock, and Zachary Huff’s awesome drum-n-bass. We’re so proud to be able to do this, and build … Read more

Review: Fountainhead – Home EP

by Dæv Tremblay
I’m glad the first album I get to review in 2015 is from Tom, Fountainhead. Tom, the fretless guitarist, at least that’s what we know him for, mostly on his Fear Is The Enemy album, which was highly praised by us and the rest of the metal community, even if it was barely metal at all.

Now, on Home, it’s more relaxed than ever. Remember the epic, inspiring strings? That’s mostly gone, now, but no need to worry, this folk-alternative-experimental sound, vaguely reminiscent of Sufjan Stevens, is really something to enjoy. The songs are perfectly crafted and executed. … Read more

Review: The secret album I kept hidden from you

by Dæv Tremblay



[Hit play now]

Yup. It’s a terrible secret finally being told. Back in October, Corey Jason, the man behind the band, wrote to me asking for a review. After the first song, I was thralled , this was amazing, so I quickly replied to him that I’ll do a review. But meanwhile, the album kept playing, and it kept getting weirder and weirder. And I love weird music. I’m in awe when I listen to Peculate, I’m amazed at the jazz-rap of New Apple Taste, and I’m currently working on a microtonal black metal text-to-music … Read more

News: Something goes right for Mad Essence

by Dæv Tremblay


Russian metalrtronic band Mad Essence will soon release their next full-length album Rehumanization which is said to be the greatest of them all.

If we are to judge the future album by the present single, this would not be far from the truth. Something Goes Right definitely gets something right. It’s not surprising for an experienced listener, but it kind of reminds me of nu-metal, the not-so-bad ones. And this is cool.

I’ll wait for the album release for the final judgement.… Read more
