Album review: Blind Channel – EXIT EMOTIONS

Posted on pahakeijukainen

Here we are with another long awaited pre-order. Blind Channel are more or less my number 1 favourite band since I discovered them through Eurovision 2021 (funny – when I checked out Dark Side beforehand, I called them a cute lil copy of Linkin Park that wouldn’t make it into the final. I was so wrong…). So it’s not a big surprise that I had their new album EXIT EMOTIONS pre-ordered. This time, our vinyl arrived on time. Let’s have a look at the album.

Album review: TVINNA – Two – Wings of Ember

Posted on pahakeijukainen

Another pre-ordered album that I’ve been waiting for. Another band that I discovered because of its connection to Eluveitie. And another beautiful masterpiece that I’m enjoying massively now that it’s finally published. And thankfully, by now I have also received my physical copy of the album. Here’s my opinion on TVINNA’s second album „Two – Wings of Ember“.

Album review: ILLUMISHADE – Another Side Of You

Posted on pahakeijukainen

I pre-ordered three albums so far for 2024- and all of them were (or still are) highly awaited. ILLUMISHADE’s second album „Another Side Of You“ was one of them. As an expression of how much awaited this album was, let me tell you that I ordered it twice. Yes. Exactly. We got two copies of this album – first we ordered the CD (in a bundle with a t-shirt) and then about a week before the album came out, ILLUMISHADE mentioned in a video that the vinyl has bonus tracks. I am a simple person, so me and my girlfriend decided that yes, bonus tracks (that we knew before because they had been published on Spotify in 2021 already) are enough of a reason to pre-order the vinyl as well. Our vinyl arrived last Thursday, the CD on Friday and here’s my opinion. Little spoiler: Any other releases in 2024

Happy new year I guess. It’s been a while and I wanted to publish this review much earlier, especially given that the CD was in my post box a week before the album was actually published. But first there were Christmas holidays, then were exams to mark and now I’m back to work. I didn’t even manage to finish my 2023 recaps, but who cares – let’s start 2024 with this review.

Album review: Versengold – Lautes Gedenken

Posted on pahakeijukainen

On Friday, the German folk rock band Versengold published their new album „Lautes Gedenken“. It marks their 20 year anniversary as a band and hence includes a song celebrating that exactly. I’ve seen them at the MPS in Bückeburg this year and it was amazing, And it gave me somewhat of a headstart for their new album, which I’ll talk about here. … Continue readingAlbum review: Versengold – Lautes Gedenken
