Pastore is back with its sophomore release entitled “The End of Our Flames”. For those who are not aware, Pastore is a Brazilian heavy metal band which was formed by the singer Mario Pastore (Acid Storm, Delpht, Soulspell) & the guitarist Rafael Gazal in 2007.
 

The Black Rain is a newcomer from Italy. Well not actually a newcomer, as they took shape back in 2002 but it took them almost 8 years to make a steady line-up and go on to write their own material. Now, nearly a decade after their founding, they released their debut album “Night Tales”.
 

Paul “Q” Cusick, started his musical career only a few years ago, by releasing his debut album upon the world and now, no more than 3 years later, we find him unleashing a second offering upon us. Q, is a multi-instrumentalist, who’s main thing has always been the guitar anyway, but never did cut his own drums so to this purpose here he enlists the help of two really great drummers Marco Minneman and Gavin Harrison which is a little surprising, as the percussive, needs are not really THAT extraordinaire, but still... who am I to tell him how to spend his own money... also there seem to be a lot of fans who seem to have lent a hand in the production of this record in various aspects, as detailed in the albums booklet.

MoonJune Records continues its streak of astonishing musical discoveries from Indonesia with "Dictionary 2", the first international release by Jakarta’s celebrated jazz-rock trio Ligro. Founded in 2004 by authoritative guitarist Agam Hamzah and rounded out by agile bassist Adi Darmawan and exhilarating drummer Gusti Hendy. Ligro when read backwards, means “crazy people” in the Bahasa (Indonesian national) language – but crazy in the very best sense of the word, signifying fearlessness, playful abandon, and a healthy disregard for shopworn musical conventions.
