[Review] Alarum - ‘Recontinue’ LP

Featured Image/Footer Image Credit: Wilkography. One thing you can certainly tell with reviews is when a musician reviews them!

Check the full review which is, like the band, both heady and passionate! Plus artist/album order links, clips, and more.

Archival post, picked from the carcass of our dearly-departed old website (RIP). This warrants sharing again; a fantastic Q & A with Mark Palfreyman, bassist/vocalist of Australian progressive metal legends Alarum in April 2023. They’ve since released a new full-length in Recontinue. Check the article for links to that and more!

[Riffs] Forgive me Mikael, for I have sinned

Originally posted on our prior website which experienced an untimely death on NYE 2024 (RIP). Our main-man Hamza shared some pre-release repentance and excitement ahead Opeth’s latest full-length release The Last Will and Testament. Which, coincidentally he also reviewed and posted in 2024 on said old site. That will be uploaded soon, but for now, here’s some nostalgic album pre-release stoke for Sweden’s finest.
