Greetings and Dark Salutations!

Welcome to 2012!   More reviews coming soon, including  the new CD from Eli August.   Check out out review of Siiiii’s re-release of their  fine compilation of their classic tracks, check out the review!   A review of Nightchild’s latest CD is up as well.      New readers should check out the reviews of  Mr. August’s EP  “I Was Already Too Late” and Isolation Division’s fine CD  “Sotto Voce”  as well.    Midnight Calling is a proud supporter of The Age of Decay,  the largest Deathrock festival in the Southern US, scheduled for April 2012.  More info, interviews, etc.  are in the works.

On Oct. 7th I was privileged to once again see Eli August on the stage at Davenport and Winkleperry in Pittsboro NC.   The homey and relaxed atmosphere was perfect for Mr. August’s fine acoustic performance, once again demonstrating his uncanny ability to evoke a mad range of feelings from forlorn nostalgia to just plain fun.  He is a delightful conversationalist as well.   You can see videos of his performance at the Midnight Calling Ezine page on Youtube:

I would like to welcome Miss Hannah, our newest contributor.  Her debut review is now up.

We are having some glitches on the website.  The content buttons at the top of the page do not work (except for the Issue and Staff pages.)  However, you can access all of our reviews and articles by on “The Issue” button at the top, clicking “next” at the bottom, and then scrolling through all back content from there.  Or  if you are only interested in reviews, culture, etc.  you can click on the category headings on the right, then click on “next page” at the bottom.   Not long ago I added much of our material from our original website back in 2003, some interesting stuff that well worth perusing!

I hope everyone enjoys the reviews, interviews, and articles!
