Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

In the hunt the man is transformed into a lowly deer and pursued to the death by the followers and protectors of the woman he has spied in her nakedness, the punishment due for being forward, for being unworthy and sullied in his action; a moral, a reaction that bares allegory from today’s modern world, or one fought with conscious from a mind over 2,000 years old and one to whom the idea of Metamorphosis was forming as he put together the ideals of Roman poetry.

Laura Marling: Patterns In Repeat. Album Review.

LAURA MARLING PATTERNS IN REPEAT NEW CD - Picture 1 of 1

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10

The phenomenon of Patternicity is one that is a fascinating psychological challenge to understand, to wrestle with whilst knowing all the time that it cannot be disputed as it is so engrained into the human existence, whether we actively seek patterns to explain the world and the universe or are overwhelmed by the continual observance and use it to dictate our life to the point that every event, every incident is an indicator to how the day will unfold, we must be mindful of how it will impact others, how perhaps the inclination will determine their lives as well.

Bonfire Radicals: Flywheel. E.P. Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

A blend, in terms of a spiritual imbibition can leave a taste in the mouth that feels odd to the palate of the clinical taster, to those that prefer an aged single malt, they find the moment to be one of a lesser deliberation and argue that the flavour has been left to take on a personality that is not of their choosing.

Steve Hill: Hanging On A String. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * * *

It may seem flippant to suggest, for some it will be a preposterous notion, but it arguably a truth that only art can save the world, or at least civilisation as far as humanity is concerned, and whilst we are at a precipice of Time, hanging not just by a thread, but by our fingernails on collective sanity and our anger, we have the opportunity to enthuse others to a place where art in all its forms connects in ways that other areas of life are afraid to tap into.

Sunjay: I’m Just Like You. Album Review.

Image preview

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

We spend so long, so many hundreds of hours daydreaming, hoping, fantasizing, that we could be someone else, or at least be someone that someone would want to be like, that we forget for the vast majority of times those same people cast their stare in our direction and hold their tongue, not sure on how to inform us, to openly declare, I’m Just Like You.

Michell, Pfeiffer & Kulesh: Flowers. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10

Whilst we are all unique, we must at some point agree to join forces in a way that brings out the very best in our ability, in our vision, and to bring something new to the public’s attention, a sign that union is not only welcome but required to attain a new balance in the world.

Mia Kelly: To Be Clear. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10

The art of storytelling in any artistic endeavour is to find the smallest moment that you observed and give it credence, to make it larger, impress upon it the sense of the familiar and cherished, to exaggerate on the belief that binds it. Fiction is a lie well told, a story is that lie given a soul; and if that story is greeted with pleasure and is valued, then it is an epic of an esteemed nature.

Erlend Viken Trio: Ville Veier. Album Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

In a world dominated by the pop ballad and the sound of various genres filling the space of the beating heart of the human experience, when we come across the sound of the dominating fiddle calls back to a time in which we were more in tune with our natural surroundings, a creative dynamic which struck beauty into the soul, but which equally could send mournful floods of tears cascading down the cheek as the heart broke time and time again.

Freud’s Last Session. Film Review.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * *

Cast: Anthony Hopkins, Matthew Goode, Liv Lisa Fries, Jodi Balfour, Jeremy Northam, Orla Brady, George Andrew-Clarke, Rhys Mannion, Pádraic Delaney, Stephen Campbell-Moore, Aiden McArdle, Tarek Bishara, Nina Kolomiitseva, Gary Buckley, Emmet Kirwan, David Shields, Anna Amalie Blomeyer. 

Perfect for the stage, but perhaps in many eyes not good enough for the large screen, in that itself the message is lost in psychoanalysis and treatment, the thought that one piece of art cannot exist in two or more different realms of the public’s mind; this schism is a mindset that cannot afford space in the human experience.
