The Drama Dolls – “Control” – Single Review Here’s a highlight! In perhaps the best overall song/performance I’ve heard from The Drama Dolls up to this point in time – I gotta say…definitely seems like they’re not only on the right path but it also sounds like they’re ready to completely blaze their own trail […]Read More
Dimensions Of The Mind – Ancient Times – Demo Album Review Into the subjective world of art & music, here we come! Dimensions Of The Mind, helmed by creative writer & poet Keefier Phillips is a somewhat experimental project; part spoken-word, part untamed-music and all with a conscious effort to create art-pieces within these tracks […]Read More
The RA-6600 – Alien Planet – EP Review Always cool to see someone, some artist, some band, pop-up from the Hembot Records label. If anything – I’ve learned to expect the unexpected from them…but at the same time, like many labels out there, they’ve definitely also defined themselves with uplifting, pleasantly-textured tunes tending to come […]Read More

Nave – Cosby Kids – EP Review/Espresso Album-Preview Ohhhhhhhh boy! You ever have that moment…whether it’s staring at the garbage-dude outside in winter, or the call-center ‘help-desk’ representative, or maybe even the mayor of your hometown dealing with municipal headaches…could be anyone with any occupation really…but have you ever had that moment where you’re like, […]Read More
Vaultry – Coven – EP Review Well…fuck eh? Canadian-based band Vaultry has put out a punishing set of four new songs on their latest EP, Coven. Tightly played, expertly assembled, written and produced – this is extremely well-thought-out material that draws from aggression, melody and truly impressive instincts that lead to wildly-dynamic songs on this […]Read More
