Fang Island Fang Island
Did you ever want to be a firetruck or a spaceship when you grew up? Do you like roller coasters, summer time, playing wiffle ball or jumping off a high ledge on to a trampoline, only to bounce into a big warm lake with all of your friends from grade school?

Six Organs of Admittance RTZ
Those of us who aren’t already familiar with the wealth of Six Organs of Admittance rarities collected on RTZ and are getting limited mileage out of Chasny’s recent exercises in finely honed border-psych will find that these patient, meditative, sky-minded nocturnes are just what the witch-doctor ordered.
Tom Whalen returns to zero...
Remember Remember Remember Remember
Released last November, Remember Remember might not have captured the imagination of a music press more preoccupied with compiling its end of year lists than unearthing the next great Glaswegian musician, but that's not a reflection on the quality of Glasgow musician Graeme Ronald's creation.
