Green Lung, This Heathen Land – A Journey Into Occult Albion [ Nuclear Blast Records – none, 2023 ]

This is a first. I’ve never, ever, never bought a rock album before. Ever. Silly me – the track’s called: One For Sorrow. One direct mental/musical association is Marshal Matters, there’s a lot of hip-hop or reversed – the other is the iron maiden. Youth and the ever distant promise of the future lost. One… Continue reading Green Lung, This Heathen Land – A Journey Into Occult Albion [ Nuclear Blast Records – none, 2023 ]

‘State of Constant Reverie’ is Plastic Sound Supply co-founder and contributing artist Scaffolding’s ninth release for the friendly label.
