Rise / Set – photo challenge

Last week’s photo challenge covered one of my absolute favourite topics – ‘Sunset’ 🙂 Watching a day go by sitting at the beach with a lovely sunset is always a special time. No sunset looks the same in my opinion and it is just impressive seeing the big fire ball at the horizon vanish, turningContinue reading “Rise / Set – photo challenge”

Founded in 2014, the quintet released one EP ‘Consequences’ inContinue reading “Dream State”

After a longer break, they decided to go back on the road, not with a new album, but with a mix of their hits, favourites, rarities and maybe almost forgotten songs. Founded in 1976 as ‘Malice’Continue reading “The Cure”
