Cold Engines – “One Of Us Now” / “Flower Covered Hills” – Singles Review Here I am, as usual, somewhere down the middle of the rabbit-hole, trying to find my way to the answers I’m looking for.

Heistheartist – “I Want You Around” – Single Review Snoh Aalegra is one tough act to follow, no doubt about that. I’ll say this – Heistheartist has definitely left his stamp on this cut; that much is clear. Truthfully I’m just as interested in what other people would think of this cover every bit as […]Read More
