Album Review: Waldo’s Gift – Malcolm’s Law (Severn Songs)

Bristol. UK, experimental trio Waldo’s Gift will release their debut album ‘Malcolm’s Law’ on January 22nd, 2025, via fellow Bristolian Ishmael Ensemble’s label Severn Songs. ‘Malcolm’s Law’ captures the story of their unusual beginnings: the intense, bizarre weekly residency at Bristol’s Gallimaufry where they built a cult following.

Album Review: Cerebral Hemorrhage – Exempting Reality (Comatose Music)

Originally released back in 2001, ‘Exempting Reality’ was the only album released by New York’s Cerebral Hemorrhage and has been mostly lost to time. Until now, where Comatose Music has broken open Exempting Reality’s tomb. Remastered by Colin Davis (Aborted, Defeated Sanity, Origin etc), with new cover art, Exempting Reality is an album reborn and will be released (again) on January 17th, 2025.
