Matthew Heller – Invitation – Album Review I have taken longer in preparing this review than I’ve ever taken before. If you’ve read these reviews in the past, you know I quite often start out with an apology on how long it has taken to get it on the page, but let me tell ya…Matthew Heller […]Read More
The Jesus Clause – Downtime – Album Review YES. You know what’s awesome? This. New. Album. This band The Jesus Clause is the sole work of a nineteen year-old wonder-kid named Trevor Hook and man has he stumbled onto some incredible sounds. Each different from the one before, layered, looped and textured to a blissful musical state – […]Read More
Human Behavior – Golgotha – Album Review To be completely honest – at many times listening to this new album from Human Behavior, I found myself wondering HOW on earth it was able to retain its immaculate authenticity. It takes nearly all of my concentration when writing lyrics to not write them in a sequence, a […]Read More
Evoletah – We Ache For The Moon – Album Review I remember way back when I had first lived with my studio partner, Rob @ SBS, long ago before our studio ever existed and we were just tuning into the different talents for music that we possess.

In this coming week you’ll come to appreciate the diversity in that first statement as we range from covering an […]Read More
The Future Exes – First Thought – EP Review Right on. That was my immediate first thought pressing play on this new EP called First Thought by The Future Exes. I already had a few conversations with this band that already put my mind at ease – before even listening to the EP we had already talked […]Read More
Gandalf’s Fist – A Day In The Life Of A Universal Wanderer – Album Review I had mentioned to this band straight away that I love the name of the band, and I do, for several reasons. Obviously when I think about “Gandalf” the only one I can immediately think of or draw to is the […]Read More
Ivan Mihaljevic & Side Effects – Counterclockwise – Album Review Ooooooooooooooh boy…..we’ve got a melting pot on our hands here! I was only two songs in when I realized that Ivan Mihaljevic and his band Side Effects were going to attempt to cross the entire landscape of musical history in one album.
