Sometimes you gotta wait. The time may not be right for the RMR zine to take on a record. And that’s why there’s nary a peep about one given piece left to rot in the catacombs of our review pipe for long years. But once that time comes, things will move fast.

So, here the lazy geezers at the Review Desk were browsing through ‘old’ records, unfinished drafts, and lost ideas. And they came across a relatively unknown Danish band that garnered some attention in 2024 and then fell through the pipe’s greasy cracks. And there it stayed in its … [...] Click to raid more!

Blasts from the Past 2025: Echoes of the Eons!

Posted on by — Leave a reply
Blast from the Past 2025 - Two skeletons with a horse cart full of electric guitars.

At first, nobody believed in a comeback of the Blasts from the Past series for 2025. The RMR crew found itself buried under a mountain of contemporary material after all. And nobody thought of switching off the faucet. Which is – come to think of it – a good thing. But that left relatively little room for that cartload of old ‘n’ torn notesheets to be read yet again after all these eons of nobody checking them out anymore.

Artists that had an undeniably massive influence on contemporary rock music without screaming themselves out of their vocal cords.

This time, the RMR crew took a fancy to David Gilmour‘s 2024 solo piece Luck and Strange. Yeah, him. The one that his daughter Romany so pointedly called “…that guy from Pink Floyd.” He’s no founding member of this world-famous Psychedelic Rock band, but for … [...] Click to raid more!

Madder Mortem - Old Eyes, New Heart - Album Cover

Madder Mortem‘s Old Eyes, New Heart is one of those records. A piece that released early in 2024, but for some reason always kept harassing us at the back of our mutual subconscious. The band has been around since 1997 under the current moniker, but for some reason, the act never clicked with the RMR crew here. Well, let’s just blame it on the inconsistent release schedule, shall we? The last record aired back in 2018 after all.

But what really and always pulled us back from launching a all-out review were the glowing reviews this piece got from … [...] Click to raid more!
