Billy Roberts And The Rough Riders – “Blood And Bones” – Single Review Wild Bill returns on his pursuit towards the next record for Billy Roberts And The Rough Riders with a new single called “Blood And Bones” from the upcoming album Greenbah.

Dave’s Neck – “Knock Knock Idiot” – Single Review You know…not only has global warming significantly increased in the past decade, but so has the amount of genres in music! How come no one talks about the rise of those to the dangerous levels we experience today? I swear they’re threatening to take over the […]Read More

Darknaut – Exile – EP Review Whether you’d call it synthwave, darkwave, ambitious-electro or something else entirely…whether you’re one of those people that considers everything electronic to be electronica…whatever it is you want to call it – one thing I think has become more & more clear with one of music’s youngest genres over time […]Read More
I can’t speak highly enough of the Modern Day Poets crew. In 2015, I hijacked Ryan @ SBS and took him down to the Media Club in Vancouver, BC to check out one of my favorite rock-bands, Blackout Lights. Unbeknownst to us at the time, not only were we taking in a whole bunch of […]Read More
