Erin & Evan – That Time Of Year

Erin & Evan – That Time Of Year – EP Review T’was the night before the review, and all throughout the studio not a creature (besides myself) was stirring…not even an Erin or an Evan, not even a mouse. So…okay…whatever – my ability to rhyme sucks – but I still remember to greet people when […]Read More

For All Recorded Time – For All Recorded Time

For All Recorded Time – For All Recorded Time – Pre-Release Demo EP Review Well shit! I didn’t know we had Tulare County’s best rock & roll on our hands today – but apparently we do in the world according to Facebook. I’ll put it this way…so far as I know, they ARE the uncontested […]Read More

Sheik – “The Breather”

Sheik – “The Breather” – Single Review Been pretty fortunate lately to have been revealing some pretty killer & innovative hip-hop as of late; mind you…some of it’s been spent behind the scenes in a few video-interviews…but let me tell ya – the wordsmiths are out there right now…and they’re ready to claim their spot […]Read More

SPACE TAXI – Cheeney Bear And The Spaceman

SPACE TAXI – Cheeney Bear And The Spaceman – Album Review All the way from Barecelona, Spain – SPACE TAXI pack a party’s-worth of entertainment into their music. A wild, exotic blend of folk/rock that really moves and shifts through several directions & sounds…there’s a genuinely copious amount of fun stoking the fire of SPACE […]Read More

Violet Cold – Desperate Dreams

Violet Cold – Desperate Dreams – Album Review Listening to the intro to Violet Cold’s “Intro: Lonely Universe” sets you up for something truly unique right away. I was listening to the album for the first time late at night…and the forlorn-tones and desolate atmosphere of the beautiful melody in this intro made for one […]Read More

False Pretence – Miss Direction

False Pretence – Miss Direction – EP Review Pretty damn interesting music and overall story when you read about & listen to False Pretence. They’ve been kicking all-kinds of ass since roughly 2009 when it all began…started-up the machine and got the rock-beasts in themselves ready for world-domination. From what I gather…it was a sudden-reality […]Read More

Mike Contoni – Start All Over Again

Mike Contoni – Start All Over Again – Album Review Singer/Song-writer Mike Contoni officially released his new album Start All Over Again at the end of October just about a month & half ago in 2015. An album that truly has that ‘home-grown’ feel to the writing – Mike’s brand of Americana/Folk/Rock tunes approaches music […]Read More

The Humble Grapes – “Brooklyn Bridge”

The Humble Grapes – “Brooklyn Bridge” – Single Review I am completely impressed with this new-single from The Humble Grapes – let me just say that straight-up and right off the bat. There’s plenty of reasons why…and we’ll get into them all – “Brooklyn Bridge” is a potential crossover-hit that could appeal to a massive […]Read More

Hemorage – Pariah

Hemorage – Pariah – Album Review Is it possibly a case of the most extreme misspelling of a band’s name, clever wordplay – or this there some sort of hidden reference to ‘Hemo Rage’ – which is apparently like, some sort of juice-monkey supplement. You know…the ‘not-steroids-but-oh-so-totally-steroids’ kinda stuff. After a listen or two through […]Read More
