Shrike's Listens - A journey through weighty music

Listing of music what I listened to a lot in June, which are obviously stuff I would recommend you check out!

The 'Storehouse of Zen Reflections' is a lot of old songs from the desk drawer, which he deemed ready to release now as a compilation. They're from all over his career, so you get a bit of everything, but all of it is very droney "dharma doom". It’s also over 3 hours long and priced at “name your price” (a.k.a. download for free, for 1 €/$ you get to add it to your collection), just sayin’ 😉Over at Instagram he said: “This release features forgotten tracks and other songs that I finally found a place for. I'm very glad to share these with all of you and I hope yall enjoy hearing tracks with similar sounds to some of my older works and some things worked on last year including 5 guitar drone tracks to end it off.”

Three recommended albums for 12.6.2026 from Upupayama, Øresund Space Collective and Phantom Logic, plus my May Doom Charts list.

Last month I mostly listened to... for 2026.05. A list of very high importance!

Spotify and their 20 lists suck, I made a better one!

Three new recommended releases for this week, from Warp Transmission, The Dead At Sea and Liquify all very much worth checking out.

Yet another month of listening to interesting music is done and it was a good one. New and old favourites, weird encounters and huge walls of sound await.

Four release recommendations for 15.4.2026: Sunn O))), 🜍 (sulfur), Ten East & SoftSun, Gnod

My most listened artists in March 2026, few things about the artists plus some additional statistics and words.

Three recommendation for friday 20.03.2026, in the form of releases by Lesotho, Prophets Of Thwaites and Desert Collider.
