Still in Rock is (very) pleased to publish the latest Echoes. We have teamed up with super-talented photographer Marceau Guehl (@myblurryobsession) to bring you a monthly series of photos that echo one of our favorite albums of the past few weeks. The concept is simple: we send him an album, and he takes photos that reflect it. Echoes of December 2024 takes us back to Vol. II by Split System.
