Vargen – Love/Leave – 11 Songs Of Bob Dylan – Album Review Somewhere in the back of my mind, I always knew this day would come. I think it’s natural for people to feel awkward about their shortcomings…and I’m no exception to that when they pop up. After 2000+ reviews written by yours truly here […]Read More
Turfseer – “The Ballad Of Typhoid Mary” – Single Review Another interesting dive into the battle between perception versus reality by the ol’ Turfseer here… At its core, with the new single “The Ballad Of Typhoid Mary” being so close thematically to the recent release of “The Virus Is My God,” you have to somewhat […]Read More
Forest Robots – After Geography – Album Review Forest Robots…aka, as reliable of a source of fantastic Ambient music as one could ever hope to find.

Turfseer – “I Had A Zombie Conversation” – Single Review When it comes to the art of making music, a hook doesn’t always need to be universally loved in order for it to be successful.

The Prof.Fuzz 63 – “Owls” – Single Review Finally! A legitimate answer to a question I grew up with on television throughout my youth… Question: How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?
