Karina Vismara – Two Winters – EP Review Karina is coming to our page all the way from Argentina! I racked my brain to think of any other act, artist or band that I know of that might come from that area and I can honestly say that this is the first time I think I’ve […]Read More
Ian Marquis – Faces From The Static – Album Review I don’t think I’ve ever wanted some structure to come into the music as badly as I did during the opening moments of Faces From The Static – yes it’s super-early in the morning but c’mon – that was all kinds of confusing! Those prayers are […]Read More
The Yellow Dress – Faint Music Ordinary Light – Album Review When you look up The Yellow Dress on Facebook one of the first things you see and notice might very well be the same first thing that caught my eye. At the top of the page, right by the “about” button where I usually go […]Read More
Cinja – “Still Love You” – Single Review Cinja! That’s a name that you just have to love. Surprisingly, this singer/songwriter with a name that could just as easily fit in the punk-rock category, makes music that is incredibly sweet.

Syndrome Of Fire – Save Me From Myself – EP Review Hard GARBAGE! Hmmm. Now that I read that opening, I’m thinking you might not all know what I mean…I better explain that better I suppose cause I’m certainly not implying this EP is bad in ANY way. Polar opposite; this is a genius set of four […]Read More
The Broken Stems – We Are Home – EP Review Wow. First thought that came to my mind was ‘what IF Band of Horses and Cold War Kids had children together…would it come out like this?’ Yeah, okay…that’s weird even for me, and as the EP from The Broken Stems plays on, it’s not nearly […]Read More
Teni – Afrodisiac – Album Review I love how every time I think I’ve reviewed it all, another genre pops up that I’ve put on the shelf for a while only to be resurrected by all of you wonderful independent artists and bands. Awwww! That’s sweet right? Well here’s something else that’s sweet – this album by Teni […]Read More
