 | Rose Tattoo Rose Tattoo
It's Australian blues/hard rock from the late 70's, and it sounds very much like AC/DC. Gotta love it or hate it. | 3.5

 | Nirvana Live At Reading
It's loud, it's noisy, and it's good. An entry into Nirvana's discography that comes surprisingly late and yet at the right moment. Kurt Cobain would have been proud. | 4

 | Be'lakor Stone's Reach
Very solid progressive melodic death metal that has been influenced by many artists from the Scandinavian scene, especially Opeth. Stone's Reach gets on the repetitive side after the first two highlights Venator and From Scythe to Sceptre, but provides a necessary break with the short and acoustic Huks (there's your proof for the Opeth-influences), and closes off on a high note, with the truly worth epic Countless Skies. | 3.5

 | Katatonia Night Is The New Day
Despite claims of progression, Katotonia haven't changed their sound all that much since Viva Emptiness. Still, that doesn't mean Night is the New Day is a dissapointment. In fact, it is great. | 3.5

 | Dinosaur Jr. Farm
A shame I have to discover this so late in 2009, as it has everything to instantly put you in a good mood. Superbly performed, overpowering guitar melodies, a smooth flow and relaxing vocals: these are what create this very, very excellent album. | 4
