Stream ALPINE DECLINE's new album through Hartzine

Mon, 28 Jan 2013 22:14:57 +0100

Alpine Decline’s fourth album Night of the Long Knives due Feb 4 in Europe is now available for streaming through French online magazine Hartzine. Homepage feature also includes interview (in both French and English) and review (in French).

When we started Alpine Decline, in a kind of vainglorious attempt to infuse a little bit more meaning and depth into our music, we decided actually picking up the pen, picking up the instruments, could be more like the byproduct or the chemical run-off of a totally fixed, immersive dive into the concepts and ideas that would form each album.

Stream the album on Hartzine

Bigg Jus features in FACT Magazine's end of the year list

Mon, 03 Dec 2012 21:58:28 +0100

We’re stoked: Bigg Jus’ Machines That Make Civilization Fun features in UK-Major magazine FACT’s end of the year list as the 50th best album of the year!

“Fuck Funcrusher, the first album in over half a decade from Company Flow’s Bigg Jus is simply crushed. One of the most morbid hip-hop records you’re ever likely to hear, at times Jus sounds on the verge of madness; at others, he’s fallen into the pit completely. Machines’ production ranges from confrontational (‘Game Boy Predator’, ‘Food for Thought’) to candlelit (‘Empire is a Bitch’), but Jus’s performance is what stays with you: red-eyed, alone and completely devoid of hope.”
