• Generationals – Heza

  • Wake up to…Candlebox

    It’s weird how time changes your perspective. I used to ignore this song, even if a song by them marked my life in one of those moments that don’t feel like “The Moment” when you live them, but gain tremendous force when you look back at them. Hindsight. 20/20. You know it.

  • Gig Review: URSS Bajo el Árbol @ Casa del Lago, México

    If there’s something true about us Mexicans is that we do love a free gig. More so when it’s a band you know will take you to Mictlán and back. Such is the case of the reality bending music of URSS bajo el Árbol, who played a free gig at Chapultepec’s Casa del Lago to…

  • These Monsters – Heroic Dose

  • Jay Leighton – Hours

  • Queens Of The Stone Age – …Like Clockwork

Oh well, may a greased-up Jeremy Clarkson in a thong haunt your dreams. WELCOME to our lovely EP round up, I’m your very entertaining (and slightly wacky) host, Orestes P.…

  • Gig Review : Hey Sholay @ Queens Social Club

    The Hot Soles open up the night with typical aplomb, a class act in rock and roll, all sweat and frenetic riffs, blustering drums and yelping vocals, it’s a call to arms and The Hot soles are definitely armed and dangerous. The crowd are ready.
