Requiem For A Dream review on Velvet Thunder

July 27, 2023

A fabulous and in-depth review of the new album on Velvet Thunder from one of rock’s most respected writers, Steve Pilkington.

“Luke Machin pulls off a solo here which is jaw dropping in its effectiveness. If you’re listening to this in the car and playing it loud, be mindful lest the wheels leave the road entirely and the vehicle levitates. It’s that sort of moment.”
“when Sertari comes in with some Latin I’m sold!”
“the shimmeringly fragile beauty of Don’t Forget My Name”
“Karnataka have never sounded better.”
