*** Phil Wilson is back! ***

As main songwriter and singer of mid-80s English pop legends the June Brides, Phil Wilson’s influence looms large over nearly all UK guitar pop since.

Though their career was a brief…

Samurai II: The Return Of The Review (iPhone Game)

Recently I was asked to do something I don’t really like to do. I was asked to review a sequel to a game that I did not play. This is not a problem, I just feel like I’m missing some of the story. The only one downfall other wise is that I can’t compare the two games to each other. As such I hope all my readers will forgive me…

Kordan // The Longing

Sifting through traces of quantum universes, Kordan find the lush textures, pulsating beats, and somber melodies that they use to project dreams of bleak, dismal cities in a holographic future. But just below this mournful atmosphere there is also flicker of energy, like one of those cities is slowly flickering back on after a blackout. Lumines- cent synths build on scratchy guitars and the electricity of the city finally rushes…

Hot off the heels of their prior release, 2008’s These Flowers Of Ours…, our heroes decamped to the mind-warp vortex that is their studio home during the winter of 2010 to continue their assault on the senses. Perhaps due to the season, and its affect on the psyche, Hail To The Clear Figurines has a…
