Understand […]Read More

No – Meet Me After Dark

No – Meet Me After Dark – Album Review We were lucky enough to have interviewed No through our written work on the site in 2013, exposing us to a pure and melodic pop-rock sound led by the Jarzabek brothers in an interview that offered a lot of insight into the inner-workings of the band […]Read More

Grenouer

I have always long maintained since starting this project with sleepingbagstudios back in 2012 that one of THE coolest aspects of what we doing is being able to talk with people from so far away & in different parts of the world entirely. Another one of THE coolest things about that though, is being able to […]Read More

The Striped Bananas – Lady Sunshine

The Striped Bananas – Lady Sunshine – Album Review Yep. They just MIGHT have had me at their own description of their music: “Psychedelic Basement Rock” – who doesn’t want to hear some of THAT? Consider me all about it. And after pushing play on Lady Sunshine, the new album from The Striped Bananas all suspicions are confirmed – […]Read More

Still Kickin!

YES, YES…I’M ALIVE! That was one hell of an absence from the official blog wouldn’t you say? November! Jeeeeeeez. That’s honestly too long! So Merry Christmas, Happy New Years and Happy Valentine’s Day – I’m back! LOL…whatever… Over these past months a lot of time has been spent in self-reflection, especially towards the end of 2013 throughout the holidays. Always an […]Read More

Young Coconut – Bieber Heads

Young Coconut – Bieber Heads – Album Review Nice. We reviewed Young Coconut not too long ago and his latest album I Got A Vibe…and we definitely got our ears deep into the unique and creative sounds he had put to record. So, in an effort to dig deeper into the bizarre world of Young Coconut – […]Read More
