Head over to the excellent Phantom Channel zine to read their wonderful Hidden Shoal birthday feature. The write up includes a run down of the zine’s favourite HSR releases over the last 5 years. Unmissable!

Check out the lovely review of Iretsu’s stunning 2010 album Fang over at the excellent Reviewed Music zine! Fang has been receiving some renewed love thanks to the release of the second single off the album, ‘Sexy, No?‘ which is available for free download from the Hidden Shoal Store.
