Posted on September 11, 2013 by postpunkmonk

Twenty years ago, Karl Bartos released one of the last contemporary albums that I could pick as “favorite of the year” way back when when ye olde Monk was still keeping up with current stuff. When the desire to keep … Continue reading →

30 Days: 30 Albums | Andreas Dorau Und Die Brüderschaft Der Kleinen Sorgen – Demokratie

Posted on September 10, 2013 by postpunkmonk

I had enjoyed all of Andreas Dorau’s albums that I had bought as re-issued by Bureau B. This was the last one of his first four albums to get the DLX RM treatment from the Hamburg label. This one was … Continue reading →
