She Likes Todd – Over The Counter Culture – Album Review One of the best aspects of music I’ve always appreciated and loved perhaps more than any other is simply how it can lead you from point-A to point-B and continue on and on through C straight til the end of the alphabet in terms […]Read More

Charming Timur – So Much So Little So Little So

Charming Timur – So Much So Little So Little So Much – Album Review It’s certainly been a privilege to have been part of the independent music-scene long enough to be able to hear music evolve, refine, change and grow like I’ve been able to with what Santeri Lohi creates in all his various projects, […]Read More

Greg Safel – Visible

Greg Safel – Visible – Album Review Oh boy…where to start? How about first I make a sincere, heartfelt apology to singer/performer Greg Safel, our artist in review today after what has been entirely too long…I’ve had this on my desktop for some time now, and I have to admit to the folder it’s in […]Read More

Down Solo – Back To Camps Bay

Down Solo – Back To Camps Bay – Album Review Alrighty…truth coming at ya here…real-talk kinda-stuff… I was really only supposed to dig into the song called “The Edge Of The World” from the new record from Down Solo. In my curiosity and pursuit of all-things-music…just so happens I might have maybe pushed the button […]Read More

STV – SOS

STV – SOS – Album Review No pressure here STV…but it’s my birthday…so…know that I’m going into this with the expectation you’ll make it a happy one for me! Not that I’d necessarily expect the subject matter, moods or atmospheres to necessarily be laden with joy…not when it comes to the emotional-textures you’ll find in […]Read More

Howard Louis – Having Stung Moves On…

Howard Louis – Having Stung Moves On… – Album Review For grooves so subtly-woven…you’ll be impressed at the amount of hooks Howard Louis has found here on his new album Having Stung Moves On… Smart writing and clever melodies make themselves known on this acoustically-driven, folk-laden, storytelling set of songs; Howard is clearly a writer […]Read More

Oddfellows – NoVo

Oddfellows – NoVo – Album Review There was a small part of me that was trying to whisper how late it’s growing here in BC…and that I should start thinking of packing it up for the night.

Well good then…sit the hell down and strap in for an album with plenty to chew on – Fellowcraft’s long-anticipated Get Up Young Phoenix is coming out soon…and I’m lucky-enough to have […]Read More

The Couch Bombs – Growing Pains

The Couch Bombs – Growing Pains – Album Review Punk from Colorado these days eh? Everything I’ve been reading has definitely been hinting at that whole area really trying to get their mellow-on…or is that just what we’ve been led to believe? The Couch Bombs are a four piece of power-punk mayhem…and I have a […]Read More

Suede Jenkins – F.I.L.O.D.

Suede Jenkins – F.I.L.O.D. – Album Review Abbreviated down to F.I.L.O.D. – I’m gonna spell it out for you…because I think the title represents an important aspect of Suede Jenkins…the expanded title would read Fall In Love Or Die. In his defense…I don’t think he was necessarily listing that off as options for how to […]Read More
