Perhaps it was destiny that David Gilmour knocked at RMR’s steely gate late at night this fall and – to everybody’s surprise – garnered a review. For a solo piece he released in 2024, no less. So, the crew here basked in the creamy, warm light of smooth groove and established alt-rock with a flow addiction for a long while.

Fast forward to reality, and Dawnwalker just appeared on our radar. Again? It sounds like the Review Desk just did a piece on them – last year. And indeed so. The psychedelically tainted The Unknowing hit in 2024 and garnered … [...] Click to raid more!

Evadne - The Fragile Light Of Fireflies - Album Cover

Confusion reigned. Truly. In 2021, Evadne released The Pale Light of Fireflies. A record, which – at that time – didn’t make the cut over at the RMR review desk. If our mutual memory is correct, it was the strange choices of the band when to metal and when not that held us back from coverage.
