Herman Martinez – Immortal Jellyfish

Herman Martinez – Immortal Jellyfish – Album Review I’ve got more faith in Herman Martinez kicking all the ass than most of ya out there, and do I think he’s gonna go on to slay a full lineup of eighteen tracks?  Heck NO!  That’s no slight against him, believe me – it’s simply the odds […]Read More

Dirti Speshuls – Come Again

Dirti Speshuls – Come Again – Album Review It’s always a good sign when I start out listening to an album feeling like I’ve heard the first song before when that’s actually the case.  As “Won’t See Me” started up the new Dirti Speshuls record Come Again, I was more than convinced I’d heard it […]Read More

Stoker – Programmed To Exist

Stoker – Programmed To Exist – Album Review Man!  I freakin’ dig the confidence in Stoker’s vocals as this title-track started up the record…Joseph Belsher attacks the microphone with clear & bold tone, not holding anything back as he establishes a standard that he’ll go on to live up to throughout the course of this […]Read More

Nosebora – Sink Your Teeth In

Nosebora – Sink Your Teeth In – Album Review That is indeed, a strange name to have gone with!  Would have been tough to pin down what I thought Nosebora would have sounded like on sight alone…this time around, I was better off to just push play.  What’s in a name anyway, am I right?  […]Read More

Jeffrey Hull – To All My Friends

Jeffrey Hull – To All My Friends – Album Review I’ll fully admit…I never really know what to say when someone tells me that they’re ‘done with music.’  Saying “okay” seems like a very short but fairly harsh response, but it’s usually the only one I can ever come up with.  Don’t get me wrong, […]Read More

Nova Cascade – The Navigator

Nova Cascade – The Navigator – Album Review “Can’t cauterize the wound.” Technically, those are the first words you’ll hear on Nova Cascade’s new album, and some of the truest you’ll find.  If you’ve been following along, you know that making this record was no easy task for the band…it began with the lineup you […]Read More

D.Ni.L – Better?

D.Ni.L – Better? – Album Review Better?  Mentally?  Physically?  What are we talkin’ about here?  Musically, D.Ni.L’s already one of the best there is out there in the scene today, and we’ve recognized that pretty much from the moment we started listening to the man way back in 2018 on the first song we ever […]Read More

Dylan Tauber – Sea People

Dylan Tauber – Sea People – Album Review Like clockwork, Dylan Tauber is back with another record filled with Electro-based tunes.  Definitely strikes me as the kind of dude that has a natural internal schedule that keeps him making music at a consistent rate – we’ve seen him appear here on our pages since 2022 […]Read More

The Big Mackoofy – The Numbers Factory

The Big Mackoofy – The Numbers Factory – Album Review I’ll fully admit to the fact that I didn’t have the slightest clue what I was about to listen to for once.  The Big Mackoofy?  What the heck is that supposed to be?  Usually I can kinda tell what something is gonna be, whether it’s […]Read More

The Eddie Gale Collaborative – Live In New Orleans

The Eddie Gale Collaborative – Live In New Orleans – Album Review Jazz comin’ atcha, straight from the place it was born more than a hundred years ago, New Orleans. The Eddie Gale Collaborative includes the talents of Roger Lewis (Saxophone), Shannon Powell (Drums), Craig Klein (Trombone), Steve Lands (Trumpet), Mark Brooks (Bass), and Dennis […]Read More
