Hookman & The Ripper – Hookman & The Ripper Volume 1 – Album Preview Keep in mind, an album preview process is much, much different than your typical A-to-Z album review where you hit play and let the songs play out. In a preview situation, such as the one here today with Hookman & The Ripper, […]Read More
Seashaped – A Pill For Everything – Album Review Inoffensive! At least that was the first thing that came to mind when pushing play on the Seashaped album! You know what I mean though? It’s…pleasant! Music that I can’t see anyone ever frantically running over to a stereo to turn down the sound on…yeah – that’s what I’m […]Read More
Aaron Baldes – Horizons – Album Review Ahhhhh…..music! Food for the soul – that’s what “they” say isn’t it? And much like your diet or what you might like to throw into your pie-hole year after year, those tastes can change & grow and become more expanded and accepting over time. We should never have to be […]Read More
Sky As Skin – Dead Songs For A Live Soul – Album Review This excites me greatly. As a long-standing fan of heavy/melodic bands, finding Sky As Skin as assembled and ready to rock as they are on this new album shouldn’t have been as much as a surprise as it was. According to them, this […]Read More
Ain’t No Other – Never Really Broke – Album Review Here’s the straight-up in one single sentence; I would be a way bigger fan of the entire rap genre if it was all as entertaining as this album is. Ain’t No Other has had me paying attention non-stop since I pushed play on Never Really […]Read More
Sin Twister – Sin Twister – Album Review Yep – I can be the bigger man here…I can admit when I’m stumped. With as many traditional influences from rock & metal past can still be found prevalently all throughout this album – the sheer uniqueness of the vocals of Sin Twister are…not “throwing me off” necessarily, but […]Read More
The Hawthornes – More Than Eyes Can See – Album Review Meet The Hawthornes! Through their debut album More Than Eyes Can See, I’ve just been able to discover them recently as well – you’re not that far behind at all! Push play and let’s examine this first full length effort from The Hawthornes. And if you […]Read More
Utuvis – Pathogenic Symphonic – Album Review Awesome, is probably a great place to start… I’ve always been a huge fan of dark electronic soundscapes, and as many of you already know, I’m also a gigantic fan of melody in music, no matter the genre. Utuvis has found a comfortable place in this rare combination, maximizing […]Read More
No – Meet Me After Dark – Album Review We were lucky enough to have interviewed No through our written work on the site in 2013, exposing us to a pure and melodic pop-rock sound led by the Jarzabek brothers in an interview that offered a lot of insight into the inner-workings of the band […]Read More
The Striped Bananas – Lady Sunshine – Album Review Yep. They just MIGHT have had me at their own description of their music: “Psychedelic Basement Rock” – who doesn’t want to hear some of THAT? Consider me all about it. And after pushing play on Lady Sunshine, the new album from The Striped Bananas all suspicions are confirmed – […]Read More
