IBUILTTHESKY – The Zenith Rise (2019)
Instrumental music can be hard to write about since the very task of ‘describing’ music is like trying to explain a mountain view with a one line drawing.

Continue reading Voyager – Ghost Mile (2017)
Branch Arterial – Beyond The Border (2016)
Intense, focussed and anthemic rock that hits all the right notes. Consistent from start to finish this album is an absolute knock out. Continue reading Branch Arterial – Beyond The Border (2016)
