spot on: Baptism.
Baptism, hailing from Birmingham and consisting of one member only – caught our attention with a short email only. Well or with the link to soundcloud… and the cross with palms in it.

spot on: victories at sea
Currently I’m trying to put together a list of the bands and artists, I think, who we will hear a lot more from in the coming year 2012. The list is quite long – the upcoming frock&roll issue has a little shorter one. But before that I want to introduce you to Victories At Sea [...]
