The Vanilla Milkshakes – Punching Cows

The Vanilla Milkshakes – Punching Cows – Album Review Well if there’s one thing that’s certainly obvious & undisputed, it’s that this is clearly, without question, 100% definitely, a record that was made & played through Kurt Cobain’s amp. Inside joke (Hi Jack!).  Maybe I’ll explain it.  Later. Aside from releasing their cover of Nirvana’s […]Read More

Lana Laws – Kalasin

Lana Laws – Kalasin – Album Review Really kickass record from Lana Laws with a whole orchestral/metal riot goin’ on that presents impressive melodies and complex compositions as one.  Neat to read the details & story behind Kalasin as well…Lana records & composes at the same time, essentially ensuring the uniqueness of each song by […]Read More

The Infidels – The Infidels

The Infidels – The Infidels – EP Review Lots of rad stuff happening on this new self-titled record from The Infidels, based out of York, PA.  I don’t know too much about’em so far…this is my first experience with’em, even though they’ve technically been around since about 2009.  Led by Ian Dellinger – who will […]Read More

Russell Lee – Meant To Be

Russell Lee – Meant To Be – Album Review Hmmm!  Well alrighty.  For some reason, I kind of assumed we’d have a double-disc or three-part anthology here, but we got seven songs on the brand-new Russell Lee album Meant To Be.  Two of’em we’ve been checking out for a couple years now already as lead-singles, […]Read More

N0va is back with his sixth record, released in mid-February of this year, called Underdog.  According to the write-up online that comes with the record, he’s building on the momentum he started with last year’s album Checkmate…which I think might have been the […]Read More

Enrico Orlandi – Then & Now – Album Sampler/Singles Review Really rad stuff to be found throughout the soundtrack for the short film Then & Now, composed & constructed from the mind of artist Enrico Orlandi – this dude’s done an excellent job of putting together a magnificent amount of sound together and creating a […]Read More

TWO MIXS – Separate Checks

TWO MIXS – Separate Checks – Album Review I made this comment when I was checking out a few tunes leading up to this official record by TWO MIXS in the past review:  “…it seems like there’s an island influence, or at least a vacation-like atmosphere that runs through the spirit of these tunes.” As […]Read More

Elmo Karjalainen – Back Where We Belong

Elmo Karjalainen – Back Where We Belong – Album Review In the whirlwind of starting things up at sleepingbagstudios long ago, it was kind of impossible to think too far ahead.  Everything was so go-go-go all the time that I never really had the luxury of reflecting on what the future would hold for what […]Read More
