tkoch19606 This album continues to grow on me with every listen, and the album sounds fantastic. I love the work that the band does, yet somehow my favorite track at the moment is the final track, From Newman Street, which is just Kassi and her guitar. I love the sound of her guitar in that closing song, as it somehow reminds me both of Bert Jansch and also old Delta blues. For me, Birds Fly, Roll On, Small Things, and Weight of the Wheel are also favorites. Favorite track: From Newman Street.

martinourada Everything Kassi Valazza has released so far has been pure magic, and From Newman Street is no exception. Unique, deeply personal and soundwise great. And I just love the way she sings. Favorite track: Shadow of Lately.

Willem What a joy listening to this album! My favorite song varies from day to day as I'm still getting to know them better... I'm looking forward to the Netherlands show very much :-) Favorite track: Market Street Savior.

Coraxio These guys embrace the stoner/doom clichés with such relish (Satan, weed & cosmic trips galore) my stoner-blasé ass was a bit defiant at first, but 1) I did love their 1st LP, and 2) it's very much done deliberately, with a big cheery wink (see also : cover art). Like with Ultraritual, this is excellent riffage. The recipe brewing in their cauldron is still mostly stoner, but infused with hard rock and heavy metal to judicious effect, i.e. huge stadium-friendly hooks and choruses. Big, big fun. Favorite track: Down Below.

il-kor "Possesed by a thousand demons, he lived for a thousand eons
His secret stash, a pentagram of hash
Kanadarian dagger, summerian swagger
Medieval knievel, can you jump from here to hell" Favorite track: Medieval Knievel.

cold purveryor of narcotic death The spirit of TURBONEGRO/KVELERTAK lives on!!!!!! Oi oi oi!

Otis Nugatory Tompkins Square Records + covers of Elizabeth Cotton, Mississippi John Hurt and other legends: what's not to love? These blues are a true delight and ones I'm sure to keep, too. 9/10

bobstep Thanks to Muireann (and, apparently, her old-blues-addicted dad) for "keeping" these blues respected and played so very well. It will be fascinating to see where the music, leads her lovely voice and those magical fingers!
Old music, new music, American music, Irish music, African music, future-music ... I wonder if she's encountered younger tradition-explorers like Nora Brown, Meredith Axelrod, Rhiannon Giddens, Dom Flemons, and Jake Blount.

thehartnett Talent. After putting it on in the car, my sister said 'that sounds so sore!' Go raibh maith agat

.SVRDWXLF. My favorite horror doom band dropping hot fire!

Roland Don Doom Thank you Trevor for another fine piece of DOOM! /,,/

MiGo13 Buy first. Listen later. It's TWC revisiting BEASTMAKER and proving yet again that he doesn't make bad music.
