It’s on Youtube as well, and it’s fantastic. **For more about whales and Hamlet, including parallels with the biblical Jonah, please see the essays of my friend, Paul Adrien Fried, who has done a great deal of work on biblical references and allusions in Hamlet: https://pauladrianfr...
The second single from their 2016 albumHardwired…to Self Destruct, “Moth into Flame” starts off with a two-guitar harmony before exploding into the familiar chugging riffs that made Metallica the iconic thrash entity they became early on. While there’ve been many songs written about the con...
This debut album remains a rock 'n' roll marvel. Somehow mixing a hard-rock foundation with elements of the Byrds, the band is near its peak here. From the gorgeous "The Last Days of May" to the eerie "She's as Beautiful as a Foot" to the ragged hard-rock stomp of "Cities on F...

album cover. Rating:3.5 out of 5stars. As I mentioned, I'd rather have one GREAT Arena's album or one GREAT Kino's album. Unfortunately, these two albums do not qualify as excellent album. I'm not gonna recommend you whether to buy or not to buy this album as this is clearly up...
