Blue-Eyed Hawk – Under The Moon

This is what you should be listening to all day. Blue-Eyed Hawk‘s tasty avant-jazz, female-fronted, and ornamented with a good number of collaborators, is “an album of beauty, diversity and soaring emotion.” And just listening through the first few seconds, you’ll have no problem believing that quote.

Textures are beautiful and varied throughout, and there’s place to improvisation from the band’s members in every song. If you want an almost dreamy jazz-rock fusion album with pretty vocals, trumpets, and cool rhythms, this is the album to get!

Amogh Symphony – Vectorscan

Amogh Symphony‘s third album, the sequel to the critically acclaimed progressive technical metal album “Quantum Hack Code”, which was released in 2010, marks a sharp turn from the previous direction of the band, and a slight departure from the whole “metal” genre. It’s a record as challenging to listen to as it is to read its track titles, but, in the end, it’s one of the most rewarding pieces of modern music there is, and, definitely, a change for the best.

Vectorscan will fuel the haters of the metal community because there is just so … Read more

Peculate – The Chain Industry (Collateral Damage, Pt. II)


The music of Peculate has been described as many things. I, however, would like to describe Peculate as restless, colourful, and eclectic.

Restless because a new LP is released every few months, with a few songs or sometimes an EP in-between. The rate of production resembles that of Omar Rodriguez-López, or, in other words, it’s a crazy production rate! Colourful and eclectic go side-by-side: the music is varied and in-your-face, hence the “colourful”, and its inspiration is drawn from a very diverse array of genres, and styles, quite literally “eclectic”.

They the artists! Rejectionary Art – Exocoetidae : Flying Fish

Like their band’s name so brilliantly puts it, Rejectionary Art puts aside any convention that might have been put up in the history of music (or so).

After the intro song, which is propaganda over spazzy rhythms and harmonies (featuring Morgan Ågren, no less!), the styles come and go, follow each other in lines coming from every corner of the Americas. Bluegrass, jazz, funk, etc. etc. etc.

Each song is different from the next one, so you really don’t know what to expect, and at times you’re left paralyzed, not knowing what to do. That’s just how impressive these gents … Read more
