"From out of the dark"

From Out Of The Dark

From out of the dark is a collection of 6 songs finished during the infamous Covid lockdown of 2020, drawing musical influences from many different genres and based on different themes close to my heart.

Some with a narrative, others about how I felt a particular junction in life, playing music, writing and recording songs has been a great outlet for me and helped me deal with and express myself in a productive fashion.

With no single genre over the six songs I decided to put them out as From out of the dark, to show how something good can come from the darkness. I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed making them.

I appreciate so much all the friends and family who have helped critique these tracks ready for public consumption. Thanks also to my younger sister, Hannah, for providing her vocal talents and lyric writing on two of the songs.

#WaterWeed #RiversOfLondon volume 6, by Ben Aaronovitch graphic novel mini spoiler free book review

Rivers of London Volume 6: Water WeedRivers of London Volume 6: Water Weed by Ben Aaronovitch

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Probably my favourite Rivers Of London Graphic Novel so far. Paulina Vassileva (Flirting With Death) joins the familiar crew of Ben Aaronovitch (Rivers Of London), Andrew Cartmel (The Vinyl Detective), Lee Sullivan (Marvel UK) Luis Guerrero (Titan Comics) for another superbly presented collection of 3 comics, with some funny micro stories tagged onto the end for good measure.

The story tells of a new, super strange of Ware-weed hitting the market, which of course sets Peter Grant's spidy senses tingling. If this is magically infused mary jane then surely no good can come from it.

Familiar faces, places and spells crop up in our issue, and the story is exciting and well paced. The notion for how the dope is made is really interesting and quite a sweet notion, and the outcome of their investigation has quite a satisfying conclusion, as by that point despite what's gone on we kind of like everyone - even the baddies.

Another one for the collection for sure. I've really enjoyed this entire series and really recommend it.
