Postcard from Borneo
A whirlwind journey across the mysterious island of Borneo.
On arrival, it was obvious the mysterious little island was deep in the grips of an MTV promoted tsunami appeal.

Dark Horses in Angry Town
- Review -
The Kill Devil Hills’ confident and brooding debut album.
The café is quiet now. The late afternoon rush has all but dissipated leaving empty chairs and tables scattered with half eaten cake and coffee glasses. The service is slow so I close my eyes and plug in the headphones. The first strains of Heathen Songs come as the waitress returns to collect the remaining glasses; its sounds like the clinking of spurs.

Kilimanjaro - The Mountain of God
