Esso – Everything You Ever Wanted – Album Review For this brief moment here…I know a few things you might not. And we’ll get to that, I promise I’ll fill you in soon enough…I’m just saying don’t let this pretty piano introduction of “Significant Other” fool you too much as Esso’s album Everything You Ever […]Read More
Deltiimo – “Hypersonic” Feat. Veronica Largiu – Single Review How many times in your life have you heard the notorious phrase, “video killed the radio star,” long ago added to the lexicon via The Buggles, ever since they added this ironic cut to the first MTV broadcast way back in the day? Countless times, right? […]Read More
Riven By Ravens – Venerate – Album Review You can always tell you’re in for a Rock record with serious energy when you get that slow and sleepy piano intro to start things up, which you’ll find on “The Assistant” from Riven By Raven’s new album Venerate. They’re using that intentionally deceptive misdirection we all […]Read More
Spike Ivory – Outside Looking In – Album Review I suppose the biography covers at least a little bit of the giant hole in Spike’s resume…but I’m not sure it covers the entirety of what’s kept him from releasing music in between 2005 & his resurfacing in 2022. Make no mistake, Ivory’s been at this […]Read More
SV & Alyssa Jane – Neo Phily – Album Review If there’s a collaboration we know of that has proven to be as effective as it gets, it’s definitely these two. We were introduced to producer SV and singer Alyssa Jane through a couple of single that were released in advance of this record last […]Read More
Blunt Objects – NUMB – Album Review Alrighty…we’ve got some more Blunt Objects music for ya here on our pages… I’ll skip the introduction, because I’m pretty sure if you’ve been on this site before you’re probably plenty familiar with the name by now. It’s that quirky Bill Owens project we know and love, that […]Read More
INFINIZHEN – “Generative Lucid Dreams” (Road Ramos Mix) / “You Can’t Be Trusted” – Singles Review Sometimes it’s the littlest things that tend to catch your attention… Not to minimize the BIG SOUND that you’ll find from INFINIZHEN, which is quite compelling all around, but it was actually the tiniest hashtag that first piqued my […]Read More
Betweenzone – “May Queen” – Single Review It’s funny…when you think about it, for a band called Betweenzone, they’ve always had two very distinct sides to their personality and what they create. There’s very little grey area when you listen to their music and very little overlap between the two realms they craft their tunes […]Read More
The Spice Lads With Blunt Objects – Edible Barista – EP Review Ohhhh boy…what are these two up to now? We last heard from this collaboration back in March this year, when The Spice Lads released the Astounding Things EP with Blunt Objects, and these Minor Miners are back already with a new record just […]Read More
SirenBlue – Hit Like And Carry On – Album Review It’s awesome to hear this band coming out firing on all the right notes by playing all the weird ones alongside the beautiful, you know what I mean? As “Out Of Here” began, it starts out wonderfully serene and fairly calm for twenty seconds or […]Read More
