New review: Norma Jean vs The Anti Mother

Well hello there.

Norma Jean are a ridiculously talented and rather heavy band who released an album last year that is generally referred to as The Anti Mother.

new (for this blog anyway) review: Jon ‘Switchfooter’ Foreman

Me, I’m not a Switchfoot fan. All just that little bit too rawk for me. So, in the words of the letters pages of women’s magazines, imagine my surprise when I discovered that lead singer, Jon Foreman was a true artistic genius. He’s released a bunch of EPs of solo stuff and it is truly beautiful, gentle and Godly. This review is a little old but, dammit, it deserves to be out there, adding voice to the support for a truly unique and lovely artist.
