Tsima is a post-rock/metal band from Poland. After releasing their debut EP "Juniper" on 2013, they left us wanting more and what a great way to fulfill our hopes for an amazing debut album.

"Shatter" released on December and let's just say that I regret that I didn't listened to it earlier. This album is a must-listen!

Corbeaux are a French quartet consisting of two guitarists, a bass player, a drummer — and (almost) no vocalist. Their debut album Hit the Head released on December and it might be enough to say that if you’re a fan of bands such as Russian Circles, Pelican, and If These Trees Could Talk, you will enjoy this album. But it deserves more than drive-by name-dropping. Especially for a debut album, Hit the Head is a dynamic and engrossing experience. 

Both within each song and through the album as a whole, the music ebbs and flows, with changes of pace, volume, and mood that will keep you involved and interested. Anchored by distorted, grinding bass notes and precise but ever-changing drum rhythms and creative fills, the songs spin out a wide array of absorbing dialogues between the dual guitars.

The album was recorded and mixed by Amaury Sauvé at La Senelle Studio (Birds in a Row, As We Draw…) and mastered in Stockholm by Magnus Lindberg (Cult of Luna, Abraham). Artwork by Romain Bardot.

EP: Gimu & Eeem [eim] - Analogue By The Lake

Band: Gimu & Eeem [eim]
Album: Analogue By The Lake EP
Label: Self Released
Year: 2015








Tracklist
01. Analogue By The Lake (Far Ahead)
02. Analogue By The Lake (Sundown)
03. Analogue By The Lake (Into The Night)
Download | Mirror

Gimu & Eeem [eim] joined forces to create that 3-tracks story "Analogue by the Lake". 

The collaboration starts from a few days at a Finnish cottage by a lake, goes around via Brazil /Gimu's home and comes around via China where Eeem lives for this year. 

"Analogue" is for "Oberheim SEM" and "Minimoog" which are producing most of the sound textures those tracks lay on. But also for the French "analogue" i.e. "qui présente de l'analogie, des rapports de similitude avec une autre chose": as if music was a universal form of sharing and elaboration across great distances. 

"Those tracks extend from the contemplation of the nature to an expression of our fragile life's expectations, but we hope, as well looking forward to the future."
