Alien Skin – European Electronic Cinema – Album Review Always inspiring to read about the life of a musician and listen to all the twists and turns that their music & career will take them; case in point, the man behind the music of Alien Skin, George Pappas. Even if you’re unfamiliar with the name […]Read More
Shadows & Mirrors – Aria – Album Review Ahhh yeah, some of that good ol’ reliable darkwave industrial-electro music – I’ve always got time for this kind of stuff. Ever since ordering Nine Inch Nails’ Pretty Hate Machine on cassette back in the day – the dynamics of this genre’s style have always pulled me […]Read More
Tabitha Elkins – Upside Down World – Album Review Interesting stuff from Tabitha here…she’s got an album that kind of plays like an open-book journal. With various states of recordings and different methods clearly being applied to how the music is being made – Upside Down World is a great title for a record like […]Read More
Laura Ellis – Broken, Lovely – Album Review If there’s one thing that my eyes have trained themselves to see – it’s a cover of “Bring Me To Life” by Evanescence and the infamous wasted-talent of Amy Lee’s legacy. I’ve been more than critical of such an incredible talent sitting on the sidelines after having […]Read More
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
