Fri, 03 Feb 2012 06:00:00 GMT http://music.thedigitalfix.com/content.php?contentid=16444 Capsule Review: German hardcore stalwarts [b]Caliban[/b] have seemingly been around forever, and [i]I Am Nemesis[/i] is no less than their ninth full length. The problem is, quite what have they [i]done[/i] in all this time? Once again they have put together a very ... Fri, 03 Feb 2012 06:00:00 GMT http://music.thedigitalfix.com/content.php?contentid=16445 Capsule Review: The debut LP from multi-instrumentalist Mauro Remiddi is a perfect kick-start to an already burgeoning ‘blog about me' pop career.

Thu, 02 Feb 2012 13:45:26 GMT http://music.thedigitalfix.com/content.php?contentid=16442 Capsule Review: Sharing the same wilful disregard for convention as [b]Super Furry Animals[/b], this debut effort from one-time Edinburgh art students [b]Django Django[/b] shows a pleasing sense of ambition in its 2012 mod-psych explorations and is typical of a scen... Thu, 02 Feb 2012 09:19:35 GMT http://music.thedigitalfix.com/content.php?contentid=16441 Capsule Review: The Greenwood brothers, aka [b]Low Duo[/b], are unashamedly ensconced in this modern wave of folk led by the likes of [b]Fleet Foxes[/b] and [b]Mumford and Sons[/b], but unlike their supposedly more illustrious peers, these two aren't just pouring ou...

There is no set identity yet to their work, the songs jumping around through time and ge...

As the gloriously offensive ‘Fuck Friday' exemplifies, ...

Mon, 30 Jan 2012 13:00:00 GMT http://music.thedigitalfix.com/content.php?contentid=16407 Gig Review: It's Dirty Work, but someone's got to do it. Mon, 30 Jan 2012 12:00:00 GMT http://music.thedigitalfix.com/content.php?contentid=16404 Review: Mon, 30 Jan 2012 09:00:00 GMT http://music.thedigitalfix.com/content.php?contentid=16403 Capsule Review: In a week where the press will be in apoplexy over the release of the ‘debut' album of the latest over-hyped ‘next big thing', Lana Del Rey, the release of Nashville's Gretchen Peters' latest album is likely to pass with only a fraction of the covera... Mon, 30 Jan 2012 06:00:00 GMT http://music.thedigitalfix.com/content.php?contentid=16402 Review: Fri, 27 Jan 2012 18:00:00 GMT http://music.thedigitalfix.com/content.php?contentid=16392 Review: Fri, 27 Jan 2012 09:30:00 GMT http://music.thedigitalfix.com/content.php?contentid=16390 Review: Fri, 27 Jan 2012 09:00:00 GMT http://music.thedigitalfix.com/content.php?contentid=16389 Capsule Review: It might seem unfair to write Greek quartet [b]Suicide Angels[/b] off as yet another inferior [b]Slayer[/b] clone, albeit a pleasingly proficient one, but in truth, that is exactly what they are. [i]Bloodbath[/i] is their fourth effort, and the bluep... Thu, 26 Jan 2012 21:00:00 GMT http://music.thedigitalfix.com/content.php?contentid=16388 Capsule Review: Viva la fiesta! And pre-release doubts go hang. Rodrigo y Gabriela's most recent release, the laudable but far from essential Live in France, closed the chapter on their initial dizzying ascent. Touring their strongest set to date for two years, the ... Thu, 26 Jan 2012 15:00:00 GMT http://music.thedigitalfix.com/content.php?contentid=16387 Capsule Review: Listening back to [i]Misery Wizard[/i], the debut offering from New England trio [b]Pilgrim[/b], you could be forgiven for thinking [b]Reverend Bizarre[/b] had secretly reformed under a new moniker, so complete is the duplication.

Celebrating the... Wed, 25 Jan 2012 15:00:00 GMT http://music.thedigitalfix.com/content.php?contentid=16379 Capsule Review: Occasionally two worlds will collide with remarkable and unexpected results, and such is the case when [b]Atay Ilgün[/b] ([b]Svefn Plural[/b]) and [b]Daniel Vincent[/b] ([b]The Resonance Association[/b]) occupied the studio for just a single day to r...
