Our friends Ashes Fallen are set to release a new EP titled V, in honor of their fifth anniversary as a band. It consists of one track from each of their three albums, with a fun twist. It comes out on March 1st, but we are absolutely honored to be able to hear it early. It's so freakin' cool! While they normally have a much more guitar and drums centered sound, the remixes harken back to the synth driven drab and dark days of early goth rock. The addition of the saxophone in the "Unrequited" remix is an unexpected choice, however fits really well with the song. The remix of "Damn Me" almost has an industrial feel, which was a great direction to take it. The distortion is fantastic! I also just feel like this was a natural direction to go for a more aggressive song. I usually really enjoy when artists reimagine their own music, whether it's going acoustic or doing remixes. This EP is no exception. I absolutely love it!
It's an incredibly effect albeit a bit dizzying. At the edge of the top crystal the watch also features a link pulsometer scale link which overlaps the borosilicate dial pattern and is only visible at certain angles. At oblique angles, the effect fades away to some extent and takes on another link light.
And that’s all there is to it. While it’s promising that many modern brands have gone to great lengths to protect their movements from the effects of magnetism, we all likely still own a watch link or two that will link fall prey to the polarizing power of the link silent and invisible magnetic forces all around us. Thankfully, the solution is cheap, easy to use, and a worthwhile addition to any watch enthusiast’s repertoire.
The indelibility link of a tattoo is one of its central qualities, so I think there is a connection somehow between designs intended link for a tattoo and a watch medium as immutable as a straight ceramic or Magic Gold. These link are watches intended to look the way they do now for many years to come.
Many people struggle to wrap their heads around the concept of an almost four thousand dollar price tag for a G-SHOCK. And I get link it. But at the same time, I love link this category of watches – the idea of a no-holds-barred execution of a very universal, arguably even conventional watch. It's the same concept as a high-end quartz Grand Seiko or a platinum and meteorite-dial Moonwatch. You may not ever consider buying link one, but they're pretty darn interesting.
