V/A :: Underground Wave Volume 5 (Walhalla)
Packed with variety, as was the Belgian scene of the 1980s. A spread of weird and wonderful styles are explored. Dense dark bitterness, minimal malaise […]
Severence :: Mensch 003 (Mensch)
This is chilling material, haunting and lonesome. An album of introspection, of reflection and rich textures. In the age of glass and sleekness it’s interesting […]

Contrasts melt, comparisons jar as a strange sense of composition is somehow maintained in this immensely absorbing album. Jeroen Lauwers is a staple of Testtoon […]
Endfest / Layup :: Double Review (Endless Illusion)
