LIZARD KINGDOM “BACK TO THE SUTURE” EP REVIEW
The internet has made the world quite implausibly tiny. And turned random occurances for a single individual into happenings of collective excitement; rocks drop heavy into the pool of Facebook water, causing ripples on ripples, waves upon waves. The only reason I know of this band and their excitement inducing brand of molecularly spectacular super-post-hardcore […]

Their music sweeps in and out of great musical passages while staying grounded in it’s maturity. The […]
