Today’s blog post is brought to you by the colour blue…

Perhaps there’s something in the water.

Actually, there definitely is something in the water. Water, in one form or another, features quite prominently in the three SG sets I’ve selected for your perusal this afternoon.

Let’s start with @Abyss. Apparently if you stare into her, she’ll eventually stare into you. You can sign me...

So, this is the year that Delain broke up. Which sucks, for all sorts of reasons, but, dammit, they've had a good run. I was fortunate enough to see them twice in concert, both times in Manchester, both times with my younger son who's a bit of a music buff. The first concert was in a fairly small venue. They were on their We Are...

At some point, I'm going to return to blogging round-up posts of Hopeful and SG sets. Life has been a bit busy over the last twelve months (I know, I know, we've all been locked down, but I've become a grandfather again - twice! - in that time and life apparently keeps on chugging on even in the middle of a global pandemic), so I...

Just a quick heads up. @sonya has a new set out. Shot by the extraordinarily talented @natalia_randle, Wet Sunset features the aforementioned lady taking a bath in rather fetching delicate lace underwear before disrobing and then, well, unleashing the rich magenta glory of her ravishing hair before, as if triggered by that liberation, presenting us with a wild and passionate series of pics made all...

Sorry I've been a bit quiet. Just recovering from a cataract operation (not all that much recovering to be done, tbh - it went very smoothly) which the clinic managed to slip in just before the UK went into a more strict 'lockdown'. So now I don't need glasses except for reading, which, as I spend 99.99% of every waking moment reading something, won't make

Schools in the UK close Friday afternoon. Except not quite. They'll remain open for the children of 'key workers' (a definitive list of which has yet to be produced, although the contents of the list are not difficult to imagine) and vulnerable children with either assigned social workers or EHCPs. This seems sensible enough, but the devil will be in the details. With today being...

I love Arjen Lucassen and Ambeon is a project to which I regularly return. Astrid van der Veen's voice is extraordinarily expressive. Add in some ominous - and, at times, spectacular - guitar work and you've got an absolute gem of prog rock weirdness.

It’s been a little while since I’ve done one of these and I thought I should rectify that parlous situation with a rundown of SGs and Hopefuls that have caught my eye over the last couple of months. I’ll tackle the hopefuls first. And, my, there have been some simply astounding sets lately!

First up is @stellarmorta who has not one or two but three

I was going to call this post Ho-Ho-Hopefuls. But my sense of shame kicked in at the last minute. (Probably a good thing.) Allow me, though, to present to you, without any shame whatsoever, a group of beautiful Hopefuls whose sets have, quite frankly, blown me away over the last couple of weeks. Hang on to your bobble hats. This is going to be a...

This site has some phenomenal SG sets still in MR. If you haven't already seen these sets, I can recommend checking them out. They are awesome!

I've already blogged about How Sparkle Bitches Are Born, but it's such a fantastic set, I'm going to do it again! Shot by @thimeow, this reverse shower-strip set featuring @haub is one of those magical sets that not
