Them Crooked Vultures Review
Posted on 18. Nov, 2009 by vincenthofmann in Music, featured
If any of you have been following the comments on Moral Fibre about this album, you’ll know before I even launch into this that we’re entering some pretty contentious territory here. To put it in a sentence, I read a review of this album on Moral Fibre that I didn’t feel was very well researched [...]
Review of Alice in Chains – Black Gives Way to Blue
Posted on 17. Nov, 2009 by vincenthofmann in Music, featured, music-reviews
Alice In Chains are the most under-rated grunge band to have ever played and that is a fact. There were a lot of grunge bands playing back in the 90s that cottoned on to what bands like Nirvana were doing and jumped right in there (yes Bush and Silverchair, I’m looking at you) and hence [...]

Posted on 21. Oct, 2009 by vincenthofmann in Music, featured, music-reviews

Just the fact that I’m actually sitting (ok, lying)down to write this at the end of a long and painful day is testament to how impressed I am by what the boys from Sheffield have whipped out with ‘Humbug’. I guess a couple of disclaimers should be mentioned before I launch into this and the [...]

Gallows ‘Grey Britian’ – British Punk Rock is back!
Posted on 07. Sep, 2009 by vincenthofmann in Music, featured, music-reviews
There’s nothing like the british punk rock attitude. Or rather there was nothing quite like the brit-punk attitude whose flame burnt like the dustbins alight at night on dead end streets. Urban decay, whimsical drug use and a morbid fascination with governmental dogma made these riders of the night, difficult to respect and hard not [...]
