/Welcome to the Future /310 /Events, Livestreams and New Releases 28-Aug 2026
The latest roundup of new releases as summer winds down.

Thanks to everyone who sends me new music and […]

“It’s like, how much more black could this be? And the answer is none. None more black“. Spın̈al Tap had a good laugh at the alternative and metal proclivity for the use of black, and just recently, the blackest black ever is used at the Hayward Gallery as part of the new Anish Kapoor exhibition.

Some of the stuff that has been released from the hip-hop scene over the years, though, has been phenomenal. There has been stuff every bit as heavy […]
Into the Pit: 013: Nine Inch Nails – Live at Apollo Manchester – 10-July 2005
