No, it’s not a rehashed boring recreation of the album of very similar name for … Continue reading Matt Pryor is releasing a Memoir

We came across Polish folk-punk/folkcore band Hańba! (which translates to Disgrace if we’re to believe Google Translate; We’re all learning something new today and I think that’s nice) … Continue reading Kryzys? Jaki Kryzys? Oh! To album polskiego zespołu Disgrace.
