    Paradise Alley/Plastic Tears “Class of ’92” Single

    This song celebrates the friendship between these two bands. PARADISE ALLEY (England)’s frontman Steve Vincent met PLASTIC TEARS (Finland)’ frontman Miqu December in 1992 at the Hellfire club in London.

    The Empire Strikes “Charm”

    Helsinki’s 70s rock influenced band The EMPIRE STRIKES are back with 12 songs. I guess opening an album with a song called “The End” is an interesting move especially when the song has a tragic and grandiloquent feel to it. Even though songs like “Danger”, “Leeches, Lies and a Mighty Hoax” or”Amor Por La Vida… Read more

    The Brothers Steve “#1”

    If you were into 00s powerpop/glam, then you probably remember Los Angeles band TSAR.

The 60s powerpop influences perfectly… Read more
