Bear Reviews Everything!
After a decade of music journalism for Musicalypse and Tuonela Magazine that started in 2011 and continues to this day, I’ve developed a love of writing critical analyses of things that interest me. Please enjoy everything from live reports and album reviews, monthly collections of featured singles, movie, series, and game reviews, and even the odd product review!
