Charles Wright – Something To Make You Feel Good – Album Review Back again with Mr. Charles Wright venturing into solo-music aside from his role as leader of the Watts 103rd St. Rhythm Band – I was looking forward to what the man might come up with this time around. A highly-skilled musician, we had […]Read More
Shellshock Lullaby – A Lighter Shade – Album Review I was digging on the sounds of the background-vocals of Shellshock Lullaby even before the first song “I’ve Walked That Road” began to fully bloom. Met with a sound that mixed the acoustic-vibes of tender indie moments like you’d find in the music of Superchunk mixed […]Read More
Alx – Rise & Shine – Album Review Cool story that follows the music of Alx Kawakami…certainly a respectable one. I’ll admit to a piece of the bio that caught my eye as I was reading first-off, because you all know I like to form my own opinions – but when I had started “Rise […]Read More
Jai Musiq – Dolan Drive Dreams – Album Review As a guy that basically has whatever the musical-form of A.D.D. is…I got interested in this new record from Jai Musiq early on, right in the “Wake Up! (Intro)” before I even had a chance to hear him rap for the first time. He’ll get to […]Read More
Lunar Woods – Let’s Get Loud – Album Review Fawk! What a perfect title for an album from this reliably-loud grunge/alt-rock band from Russia! I first got turned on to the music of Lunar Woods not too long ago…and I haven’t looked back since. I’ve played them proudly on the SBS Podcast, and I genuinely […]Read More
Hochen – Strays – Album Review It takes no time at all for Hochen’s psychedelic groove-rock to begin. From the moment the complex but catchy guitar-riff starts “Man I Am” on the new album Strays, you can hear the commitment to style & sound…from the bass to the guitar to the drums, this first-cut comes […]Read More
One Formation – One Formation – Album Review Singer/songwriter and ambient-folk artist Matt Fleming has found himself quite the creative outlet here in his project known as One Formation. First of all…for those out there that see the word ‘ambient’ and get scared about potential boredom or not enough to listen to – I invite […]Read More
KILLCAM – Muted – Album Review KILLCAM…a new project brought to you by an artist we’ve had in review in the past, known as the infamous Quiet Leader. Now rebranded and ready to rip the mic with all-new rhymes and direction, KILLCAM has released the album Muted; last time around we found the emcee finding […]Read More
Jordan Copas – Un>Likely – Album Review Lightning-quick emcee & solo-artist Jordan Copas puts on an atmosphere of attitude & determination in the opening track “Small Town America” on his new album Un>Likely. Even the album title itself is a reference to the idea that he’s gotta beat the odds to make it, coming from […]Read More
Altamina – Tomorrow Morning Will Be Tonight – Album Review Canadian-based band Altamina has a sound & style that I can definitely identify with. Very similar to the best songs from The National…the slow ones where each song has a magical part you just wish would go on for forever…Altamina seems to be built of […]Read More
