Israel Nash: Ozarker. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10

We cannot fight for what we believe in if we have no sense of the history that made us who we are, the sense of being we find when we understand how our ancestors are tied to us, how their actions, loves, desires, and mistakes have brought us into the world to carry on the genes, the D.N.A of the locations that shape our soul.

Toyah And Robert’s Sunday Lunch: Live. Gig Review. Philharmonic Hall, Liverpool.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

Toyah has never lost her sense of fun and style, and her husband, the legendary Robert Fripp, exudes such an air of gentlemanly grace that to be in their presence can often feel measurably overwhelming.

For to watch two of Britain’s most experienced performers on stage can lead to the listener being comforted and dominated in the same breath; and when they are together on the back of their hugely successful Sunday Lunch show online that sartorial elegance on stage for a Liverpool crowd is one that is to be acknowledged as being performed by a king and queen of Prog and Punk.

Tony Winn: Blue Speck. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

Our world, our planet, is the only Blue Speck that for the foreseeable future is one we can call home.

We must endeavour to keep it in a reasonable state, to repair it, to keep it viable, for those who will take on the tenancy once we leave and hand in our collective notices; but instead of the anonymous graffiti of life we seem happy to leave as a scrawl of our time here, we must acknowledge that a signed piece of art of any stature would be a greater gift for others to understand what we were once capable of, and what some produced with endearing dignity and passion.

Kit Derrick: Lorelei. Book Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10

Myths and legends give credence to a world beyond our comprehension, a world of fairy’s and goblins offer a sideways romantic look to a world we have lost, the ugly monsters that live under the bridges, all gone…and yet we find the mythic names resides in our mind and we place association on them when we admonish ourselves as mistakes and cruel acts are undertaken, when we wish to give a syndrome a title.

Roger Waters: The Dark Side Of The Moon – Redux. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10

If the internet is to be believed, there is a division of attitude and opinion circulating what people and fans perceive to be a challenge to art history, specifically that in which is revered as a magical experience that equates to the human condition at its most vulnerable; and that separation is arguably unwarranted.

Steven Wilson: The Harmony Codex. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

Harmony is to be prized, to be in sync with oneself is to feel the universe at your fingertips guiding you to create the seemingly impossible with everything that makes you unique, a star, a coded piece of human machinery in which the world awaits your latest discovery.

Long is the suffering that abuse leaves on the soul, and its consequence on society is such that the world is embedded in chaos and anger at all times; like a match to the touch paper, it can ignite at any time and rain down destruction on all sides of the thin blue line as they battle, like a dual personality sufferer, for supremacy and peace.

No One Will Save You. Film Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10

Cast: Kaitlyn Dever, Jack Duhame, Lauren Murray, Geraldine Singer, Dane Rhodes, Daniel Rigamer, Dari Lynn, Evangeline Rose, Elizabeth Kaluev.

Everything can be an allegory if you look deep enough for it.

It seems obvious to state that as we look for meaning in between the lines of every part of human life, experience, and words maybe bandied around in jest, but the symbolic metaphor can be found residing, breathing, thriving, in all pieces of art, but when you see it unfold in a way that leaves you breathless, that requires such a barren landscape of vocalised expression to engage the viewer with an abundant brilliance…then you know how deeply the writer has given to metaphor.
