Spiral Circus: October 2011
http://spiralcircus.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 25 October 2011. Amazing artist, amazing voice. Unwilling to span to the kind of clichés spreading throughout the internet about this album, I'll just say it's a very good musical effort, from a very promising young artist who's obviously not afraid to stretch out beyond boundaries. Pop music certainly, but much much more. I'd also advise to check out her music videos. Ready to let you get under my skin. 3 Two Way Street. 6 Plain Gold Ring. 11 The Build Up.

Spiral Circus: June 2011
http://spiralcircus.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, 30 June 2011. Digitalism, I Love You Dude. I'd unconsciously waited for this for a bit so I wasn't expecting when it came out. Thumping and driving, this sophomore album: I was very surprised with the maturing of this electro "dance punk" duo — in terms of both sound and musicality — as I hadn't really loved Idealism. Except for "Anything New". I Love You Dude. Saturday, 18 June 2011. Cream, Disraeli Gears. Pedal was used on – about that, check the Cry Baby. 2 Sunshine of Your Love. Drifting aw...

Spiral Circus: November 2012
http://spiralcircus.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, 18 November 2012. Dirty Projectors, Swing Lo Magellan. Watch them get away with their pizzicatos. And harp-like sounds. And broken but so beautifully voice-led harmonies. Maybe defining something I can't categorize but stands in between the cliché. Ed indie term and more progressive and mathematical music. Read something about the frontman being a genius but don't care. Good inspired music. 1 Offspring Are Blank. 2 About To Die. 3 Gun Has No Trigger. 4 Swing Lo Magellan. 5 Just From Chevron.

Spiral Circus: November 2011
http://spiralcircus.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 23 November 2011. Cynic, Carbon-Based Anatomy. Following up on the last post (that was a prog-metal one), we have the recently released EP from Cynic. Apart from the minor fact that a couple of the songs are re-hashes from previous sideproject Æon Spoke, this is a delightful release. 1 Amidst The Coals. 4 Box Up My Bones. 5 Elves Beam Out. Monday, 14 November 2011. Arch/Matheos, Sympathetic Resonance. Expect nothing less than great tracks out of this record – fair share of repetitiveness...

Spiral Circus: blueneck, Repetitions
http://spiralcircus.blogspot.com/2012/06/blueneck-repetitions.html
Tuesday, 19 June 2012. Blueneck released Repetitions in September 2011. This record is absolutely soothing and beautiful, yet simultaneously chilling and intense. The haunting vocals and lulling melody make up for a definite must-listen for any post-rock fan. 4 Sleeping Through a Storm. 5 Una Salus Victus. 8 The Last Refuge. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). And The Earth Swarmed With Them (1). And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead (1). A Backward Glance On A Travel Road (1). A Forest Of Stars (2).

Spiral Circus: (end of) hiatus
http://spiralcircus.blogspot.com/2011/10/end-of-hiatus.html
Tuesday, 25 October 2011. First post in a long while. A reason for this is that, personally, I've been dealing with several issues that demand time – such as dissertation research and teaching –, as I imagine my fellow bloggers from SC have too. I hope I can liven up this blog as much as I can, as the opportunities to do so arrive. I also hope that the few followers which still have us in their radar understand this shift in focus. For now, I thank you if you're reading this and still care. A Backward Gl...

Spiral Circus: Belbury Poly, The Belbury Tales
http://spiralcircus.blogspot.com/2012/07/belbury-poly-belbury-tales.html
Friday, 6 July 2012. Belbury Poly, The Belbury Tales. Belbury Poly is a two-man project that makes awesome rhythmic, synth-driven, avant-garde electronic/experimental music from the 60s, except it's not really from the 60s. 1 Belbury Poly Logotone B. 3 Green Grass Grows. 5 A Pilgrim's Path. Sounds like the 60s if the 60s were the 2000s. 25 July 2012 at 14:35. This is actually rather good, The Geography is a massive standout, thank you so much. 9 October 2012 at 13:47.
