    AT THE SOUND OF THE BELL

    David Surkamp 1953 – 2026

    Speaking about my favourite artists, Pavlov’s Dog might not be a name I’d instinctively drop, but I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve played ‘Pampered Menial’ in my life …

    CHANGING GIMMICK

    What’s unbeknownst to most is that, before becoming Powerwolf, the musicians had already spent years playing together in a completely different context. Their previous incarnation was Red Aim, a German stoner rock band …

    Midnight – Sakada (2005)

    When ‘Sakada’ came out in 2005, it was quite a surprise, as ex–Crimson Glory frontman Midnight (born John Patrick McDonald) had been out of the music business for almost a decade and a half …

    GLITCHIN’ ALL THE WAY

    The little imperfections of homemade tapes are gone: skips, glitches, and accidental bits of other recordings no longer have the chance to become part of the songs. It’s not necessarily a bad thing, but try telling that to our brains …

    Crowhead – Frozen (2002)

    Some records, revisited in hindsight years after their release, may sound like unfinished business. Not half-baked, but in the sense of possibility: albums that seem to point toward something larger …

    TRANE OF THE CENTURY

    There are so many musicians, legendary and not, that I deeply admire and who are gone. I don’t remember the birthdate of most of them, if I ever knew it. For some reason, this doesn’t happen with John Coltrane …

    ABOUT ME

    When I started this website back in 2013, my record collection was unsorted, and all these years later, I still haven’t gotten around to it. That somehow reflects the nature of these pages, which cover, in a somewhat random fashion, music genres quite different from each other. That’s just what I like. And it’s not going to change, even on the day I finally put some order into that chaos.

    This space is just intended to share some nice stories about records or music with whoever may be interested. As an avid music fan, I was fond of reading stories about music and records on blogs written by fellow music lovers, hence the idea of sharing mine.
