I recently had the fortune of stumbling across experimental noiseniks Three Trapped Tigers at Liverpool Sound City, and was mesmerized by the intensity of their highly complex performance. Th


Band/Artist:
The Black Dahlia Murder
Release: Ritual
Rating: 86%

It had to be something morbid, didn’t it? The unsolved murder of Elizabeth Short who was found sliced in half at the waist in 1947 in Los Angeles, California, USA. Or more commonly known as the Bla


Band/Artist:
Heartsounds
Release: Drifter
Rating: 80%

More features than you can throw a small stick at. Here are some of the best pieces up on AltSounds.com...



What feature? The Remixes | Issue 01
Huh? Editor's pick of some awesome remixes

Remixes are sometimes better than the original no? You hear the odd track here and there, they sometimes spark your love back into the track, or a section of the song that sticks in your head. Havi



What feature? Soundtracked! Issue #15: Rise of the Planet of the Apes
Huh? Music From The Motion Picture

What feature? Gametracked! Dead Island
Huh? Music From the Award Winning Game Trailer

Ah, zombies eh? Those slow, rotting bastards seem to be everywhere nowadays. I blame George A. Romero. Thanks to him our cinema screens continue to burst with an endless wave of those decomposi



What feature? Diary of a Festival Addict. Issue #8: Kendal Calling
Huh? Lowther Deer Park - The Lake District. 29-31 July 2011

Kendal Calling has its work cut out if it wants to impress me this weekend. After all, this year’s eclectic line-up is not what I’d consider to be my favourite festival cup of tea. Fr



What feature? Soundtracked! Issue #14: Cars 2
Huh? Music From The Motion Picture

Is there anyone reading this who can say, with sincerity, that they don’t like Pixar? If you’re reading this right now and nodding like a Buzz bobble-head, let me reiterate what everyone around y



What feature? Soundtracked! Special: Batman Live – World Arena Tour
Huh? Music From The Stage Show Spectacular at Manchester MEN Arena Live

Can’t wait until the Dark Knight rises? Me neither! After all, Batman is the most badass and brilliant comic book character ever concocted. Forget your friendly neighbourhood spider-wimp and yo
