Album Reviews
Synth rock duo Zombi has crawled out of its grave once again for a ‘Direct Inject’ dose of vintage seventies-tinged soundtrack scores. Out on Relapse Records.

Host’s debut release ‘IX’ is a very catchy album and has multiple complex textures and dark gothic themes as you will find yourself sprawling on the ground with sedatives. Nick Holmes & Gregor Mackintosh take a dark direction toward the electro gothic synth/rock music that is fully of catchy choruses and lush electronic textures. Released February 24 via Nuclear Blast Records.

One man project Golden Ashes brings a second sonic blasting with ‘In The Lugubrious Silence Of Eternal Night’.
2020 may have been a turd of a year so far, at least it provided synthrock duo, Zombi, with an apt title for its first album in 5 years.
Extremely catchy and fun synthpop music from Night Club, yet in it’s on very special way rather dark!
Synths, pop, geeking out, sci-fi and a punky “we don’t care what you think” attitude… enter Hatchling! Everything must be destroyed!
After shattering their own status as grandmasters of gothic doom a few years earlier with the groundbreaking, yet unorthodox ‘One Second’, they upped the ante and did away with their metal pedigree altogether on the daring, yet almost unanimously scorned ‘Host’.
