dfbm #72
Smoke and Strings

Two hours of smoke and strings. Better open your window afterwards or leave the house! Lots of obscure and already dead folks. Others are very alive, but probably are not so well known either. In times of the internet, nothing is really lost. Many r …

Big Blood - Old Time Primitives

Big Blood
Old Time Primitives

Big Blood's sound is unique and they are full of ideas to produce the most beautiful music with the right sense to annoy the shit out of you. However - rich instrumentation and psych folk hymns. The titletrack is so far the best. Extra Tremol …
