Shapednoise: Aesthesis Review
Here’s another attempt at applying some sort of ekphrasis to reviewing an album. I feel as though I’m slowly moving toward something a bit more abstract in my review writing, but it is yet to be seen as to whether … Continue reading
Paradise Lost: Obsidian Review
So I started editing this and ended up re-writing a bit more than I expected. Not the whole thing, but close to half of the draft I had. I’m not sure as to what I think about this review. It’s … Continue reading

Lianne La Havas: Lianne La Havas Review
Here’s one I started last month and finished a few hours ago. I feel as though I didn’t write enough. There are parts where I feel going deeper would’ve helped a lot. I also feel that the review is a … Continue reading

GoldLink: Diaspora Review
This is a review I sat on since last year. Grabbed the album from a list, then didn’t listen to it properly until last month. Maybe two months ago. Occasionally I’d remember that I had the album for review but … Continue reading

Pat Metheny: From This Place Review
This is a review I started… probably a month, month-and-a-half ago and ended up putting aside. I wanted to write something big and really dig deep into it but I ended up scrapping the whole thing and starting again a … Continue reading

Jarboe: Illusory Review
This review is much shorter than I had hoped. I didn’t want to reveal too much about the album, but this feels too much like skimming in places. I’m still trying to catch up on the backlog and I think … Continue reading

Jaz Coleman: Magna Invocatio – A Gnostic Mass For Choir And Orchestra Inspired By The Sublime Music Of Killing Joke
With this review I feel as though I could have written more without revealing too much. I think I hit the wall and came to the conclusion that it would be better to try and say less. Not sure if … Continue reading

Chelsea Wolfe: Birth of Violence Review
This mostly came together in the last few hours and I think it shows. I didn’t struggle so much with writing this review but I feel as though I should’ve given it more time and waited for things to come … Continue reading
