Kawabata Makoto’s Mainliner’s sound can be compared to some long haired Japanese guy storming into your bedroom and smashing your skull with a breezeblock for 40 odd minutes (in the best possible way of course). – By Richard Collins.
There seems to be a colossal army of post metal bands releasing stuff in early 2013, so for one to stand out they better be different. Birmingham’s io do just that, they take a softer and experimental approach and is a refreshing little listen.
Hey Colossus are back with new album ‘Cuckoo Live Life Like Cuckoo’, which is another step forward for one of the UK’s most interesting bands.

Mix Neurosis with Type-O-Negative, Mastodon & Pink Floyd and you get Maudlin. This Belgium 5-piece released their new album “A Sign of Time” on ConSouling Sounds.
