Thrice – The Alchemy Index vol. I & 2 : Fire & Water

With every single album Thrice managed to surprise me in a good way.
The Horrorpops are back with twelve tales about love and murder. And they do it once again in such a catchy way that you’d let them get away with well, murder.
Left Lane Cruiser is another swampy blues act on Alive Records (Black Diamond Heavies anyone?) and fuck me if they aren’t doing an awesome job.
Amplification of Self-Gratification or ASG is back with album number four of their Southern-fried riff-driven rock and – of course – it’s once more a treat.
A new Bambix album is not something that comes with a ton of surprises.
