Reditus – Persona – EP Review I take a great pride in the connection I have with music and the ability to express it in words. In general, I’d say it’s an impossible task – so to get it anywhere even close to half-right is like an extraordinary accomplishment or stroke of luck each and […]Read More
The Abstract – Sleeping/Dreaming – EP Review Excellent name for this band…very, very apt.
