METAL MONDAY: Anesthetic by Mark Morton

March 18 2019 // Philippe L'Espérance // Magazine // Music Reviews

The idea behind Mark Morton’s first solo album, Anesthetic, was to creat an album of songs that wouldn't fit in a Lamb of God release.

March 15 2019 // Esperanza Tacchi // Magazine // Concert Reviews

Beirut is an American band that mixes multiple styles such as indie rock, pop and American folk. Whatever this band experiments with musically, the highlight is always the multi-instrumentalist talents of frontman Zach Condon and the abundant horns in their records. The band was touring in support of their fifth album Gallipoli, named after the town in Italy where they spent some time recording. The twelve songs in this album are smooth, instrumentally rich and take you back to warm summer days.
