Five-Hundred Word Challenge 560: A Small bit of Life

There is an oscillation, but that’s something I’ve covered before, so instead of covering that I’m going to talk about something else instead. Across from me is a friend of mine. Let’s refer to him as… Bren. Bren works. I’ll … Continue reading

Interim: Escapism Review

Not sure what I was saying with the “punch and soft” sentence. I think I was meant to say “hard and soft”. A fairly together, if kind of passable review that I wrote for Cool Try. There’s a number of … Continue reading

U2: Songs of Experience Review

I think I used U2 far more than I should’ve and Songs of Experience far less than I should’ve. I can’t remember if I included the two opening sentences, but seeing as I included them in my submitted copy, I’m guessing … Continue reading

RÜFÜS: Bloom Review

If I remember correctly, I wrote most of this whilst on the way home from Newcastle. I was on my way home after being in Newcastle to review a gig the night prior. I don’t know as to what bearing … Continue reading

Moses Gunn Collective: Mercy Mountain Review

The Waifs: Beautiful You Review

So, this review… Having a brief look over it has made me glad that I’ve “improved” since 2015. This is pretty rough, but I think I got across what I was trying to say. I think. I hope you enjoy. … Continue reading

Thy Art Is Murder: Holy War Review

Here’s another review from Cool Try. This one was the sixth I had written for the website. The review is rough which is partly due to inexperience. To be honest, I didn’t like the album but I couldn’t justify saying it … Continue reading
