RGF – “Spanish Orange”

RGF – “Spanish Orange” – Single Review I can get behind this.  “Spanish Orange” from the self-titled RGF record definitely has that hard-rock/alt/grunge sound that I’ve called home for many years…and given that the band is 20 from the looks of things on social-media…pretty safe to say they’ve grown up on many of those same […]Read More

G.H. Hat – Sukiyaki

G.H. Hat – Sukiyaki – EP Review “Lodi Dodi, we likes to party, we don’t cause trouble, we don’t bother nobody…” If there’s one thing beyond the actual listening to new music that I love, it’s when the experience leads to me learning something.  The history of music is so expansive at this point, that […]Read More

Salmon Friends – Forever Embedded – EP Review It’s been nearly a year & a half since Sam Caviglia put his stunning new project Salmon Friends out into the world officially with the first self-titled EP, which I had glowing remarks for…to say the very least, I’m absolutely ecstatic to have another record already so […]Read More
