About Lord Chimp

Hello! This is the official website/blog of Lord Chimp -- an influential figure in bringing disparate music listeners together through the power of OBSCURE/WEIRD/TASTY music. Lord Chimp loves prog, jazz, classical, death metal, and avant-garde. Lord Chimp loves black metal also. And pop music is also important.

The first 600 reviews or so that will be appearing on this site originally appeared on the Lord Chimp Amazon.com profile page. These reviews helped thousands of readers broaden their horizons with some of the most amazing music of all time.

They are mostly music reviews, but occasionally reviews were written for a book on philosophy or economics, and sometimes even film reviews. Once all these reviews are imported, new content will begin to appear on the site. This will mainly be in the form of music reviews. Some of it will cover new releases, and some will cover special albums that Lord Chimp has enjoyed over the last few years during the review hiatus. You won't find "mainstream" music coverage here, for the most part.
