Album review: The Rasmus – Weirdo
It’s been a 3 years since the latest The Rasmus album Rise, which was also the first album with their new guitarist Emppu Suhonen. Last week, on September 12, they released their new studio album Weirdo and I admit: I was hesitant at first. It’s been a while since I last really enjoyed one of their albums to the fullest. BUT the first single release from this album, Rest in Pieces, really gave me hope as it sounded more like their older, a bit rockier stuff. The other singles couldn’t convince me as much, so I didn’t know what to expect. Little spoiler: I loved it from the first time listening – which makes Weirdo the best The…

Album review: Lorna Shore – The Everblack is Festering Within Me
How long have I been waiting for this album! (How long, given the fact that I’m not exactly a super-duper long-term Lorna Shore fan, I’ve only really started listening to them this year.) This was perhaps one of my most awaited albums of the second half of 2025. And it was worth the wait!

Album review: Caliban – Back From Hell
I’ve planned to write this album review for way too long, but never found the time to do it. I know that by now it’s pretty pointless, as the album’s been out for way too long, but I don’t care because I’m listening to it right now and I have feelings about it that I need to put them into words. Allow me a moment of being a weird fangirl, please.

Album review: Eluveitie – ÀNV
It took me a while to finally find the time to review this album, but here we go. I could not not review it, as Eluveitie’s been one of my favourite bands since … I don’t know, 2008 at least. I was waiting for this album with mixed feelings – excitement on the one hand, but also a little worried. Worried because after their decision to continue without a hurdy-gurdy player, I did not know what to expect from the new album. Also worried because when The Prodigal Ones was released, I didn’t quite feel like it sounded much like an Eluveitie song during the first listening. So let’s dive deeper into my final…

Album review: Annisokay – Abyss Pt II
Strictly spoken, this is not an album, just an EP – but I don’t care. This EP has been one of my most awaited EPs this year (maybe not only this year, I’ve been waiting for this since Abyss Pt I was published). And it was worth the wait.

Album review: Blind Channel – EXIT EMOTIONS
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.
