Album Review : Ancient Lights treat us to their debut LP ‘Reclamation’ – fusing folklore with anarcho-punk

By Sonny Tyler
This unique band - Ancient Lights - is based between Brighton, London and Exeter. 'Reclamation' is their debut album, and I can safely confirm that it's an interesting one. Fronted by Alex CF (formerly of emo/crust legends, Fall Of Efrafa), they make a pleasurable anarcho-punk noise, going at things from a historical angle. These 13-tracks will certainly keep you guessing Continue Reading

Based out of Santa Cruz in California (USA), Good Riddance are no strangers to the melodic punk scene, and over the decades, they have more than left their mark.

This is the band's 5th album, and I'm happy to report that Evil Blizzard do not get any less interesting.

'Death Songs & Lullabies' incorporates Dub, Krautrock and Post-Punk, with Gothic elements thrown into the mix. They Continue Reading
