Music Reviews

These are reviews of albums from my own collection in a variety of styles. I'm a fairly big fan of more adventurous musical styles (e.g., Merzbow), but I also tackle more conventional sounds as well (e.g., Peter Gabriel). Expect a lot of diversity and, I hope, unexpected delights.

Copies of some of these discs are available through my CDs For Sale page.
