Crawl – Anticipate The Fall – EP Review This one’s tough. Crawl is an undeniably hard-hitting band from the Eastern side of Canada…wasn’t even kidding; most of these songs are tough as nails. Though they’re capable of incorporating a little melody into their music at any time, but for the majority, expect complete and utter […]Read More
Jet Force Gemini – Pistola Melodica – Album Review I can only imagine how I would have reacted to this album during my high-school years…this was right where I was at; high-energy music that pounded with a furious pulse, big hooks and bigger choruses. I still react well to this genre when I hear it […]Read More
Raspberry Bulbs – Privacy – Album Review It just doesn’t get any realer than this. I’ll fully admit…when I started into this album I was INSTANTLY blown away by Raspberry Bulbs and the first track “Lionhead.” Hey, it’s a fuckin solid track…there’s no knocking it as an epic opening; but when you combine that with […]Read More
Jungo Benko – Jungo Benko – EP Review Very interesting assembly of tracks here from Tel Aviv’s Jungo Benko! Gotta admit, I’m not too familiar with the Israel music scene right now, but if this is any indication of what’s happening there, I might just pack up and move there for a bit. Jungo Benko’s […]Read More
Patrick James Clark – Letters To Beatrice – EP Review Alright…Patrick James Clark! You and I sir…we’ve got something to discuss before I get into reviewing your music sir…yep, that’s right mister, not another word from me about your excellent songwriting until we resolve this beef I’ve got with ya… You see my friend…it’s just […]Read More
First Order Condition – Colorblind – Album Review This is one of the more interesting blends of the rock genre that I’ve heard in a while. I’ll have to admit…at first I wasn’t sure…I was approaching First Order Condition, also known as F.O.C., with a caution of sorts; I was afraid that I might be […]Read More
We Are Galilee – Arrival – EP Review You know…oddly enough…I think if I was to look back through our entire history there would be less than a handful of reviews on what I’d consider to fit into the ‘dance-music’ category. With the partitions in this genre being so extremely-edged, parameters like electronic/dance music can […]Read More
Dimestore Prophets – Be Yourself – EP Review Boy-O…have you ever gone to sleep with nothing but the intention of seeing the clock spin forward and find yourself in the throes of another day…only to awaken merely hours later, compellingly refreshed like you had spent the entire winter hibernating and conserving your energy? Cause that’s […]Read More
DF3 – “Tell Me” – Single Review Synth-pop band DF3 have just released their debut single into the world and it’s a hot one; “Tell Me” is a flawless production through and through, showing real promise for this 3 piece band for the future to come. With its slow and steady pulse and driving chorus, […]Read More
Melvins – Hold It In – Album Review Hold It In and hold it up Melvins fans…we’ve never quite heard them like this before have we? In a true combination and collaborative effort, we’ve got an entirely NEW album from one of indie’s most legendary bands responsible for influencing countless of the big names we […]Read More
