Monkey Fightin’ Snakes – Finish What You Star… – Album Review A great mix of sounds, genres and styles all blend together in all-kinds of rad ways on Finish What You Star… – the new record from Toronto, Canada’s Monkey Fightin’ Snakes. With a sound or song somewhere in the midst of the nine new-ones […]Read More
The Damned And Dirty – Hoodoo Down – Album Review Blues-rock/Roots-rock have always been a tougher genre for me to judge. With its sound usually so steeped in staunch-tradition…it’s often harder to hear the uniqueness in any given band due to the similarities between riffs & sound alone. What CAN separate you from the rest, […]Read More
Abhishek Chaudhary – Echoes At Taj – Album Review Depending on how widespread & diverse your own musical-taste might be…you might miss out on an album like Echoes At Taj by Abishak Chaudhary…and that wouldn’t be cool. His mix of ambient, new-age and orchestral sounds seem to know no limitations, leading him into atmospheric rock […]Read More
A Love Like Pi – III – Album Review Hot electro-rock from New York! A Love Like Pi has just released their album III – a full-scope blend of genre-mixing madness with rock/electro music meeting alternative/pop attitudes and melodies – as their first song “Till I Die” starts-up, I can already hear that this is […]Read More
Alby Sound – Adventures Of Sound – Album Review We’ve actually known about the music of Alby Sound existing for quite some time. Way back in our early days, nearly two-years ago or perhaps even more now, we uncovered the music of Oktayne; that was the moniker this emcee was going by before discovering a […]Read More
Billy Roberts And The Rough Riders – Go By Myself – Album Review I gotta say…just when I figure that I’ve heard the best of this guy, he comes back better each time. Billy Roberts ladies and gentlemen…surely you recognize the name around the ol’ sleepingbagstudios music-saloon by now…that guy that seems to never give […]Read More
Souleye – Shapeshifting – Album Review Always great to see this artist back in our midst…and to be quite honest with you all…I felt as if Souleye rolled-out the red carpet for us all right from the drop as Shapeshifting began; “Human Overwhelm” is about as audibly-inviting as I’ve ever heard accomplished as an opening […]Read More
Sevencore – Collide – Album Review Well now! So far so GOOD! I gotta admit…seeing the name ‘seven’-anything makes me instantly cringe at the thought of the world possibly having given birth to another version of the band Sevendust, or Seven Mary Three while I was asleep on watch…and what a terrible tragedy that would […]Read More
DWARF – It’s About Time – Album Review If the sound of the lead-tune on It’s About Time by DWARF is any indication of what’s about to come at me here in my late-night listening…I’m about to fuckin LOVE LIFE. The opening-cut, “Misinformed” is nothing short of brilliant alt-indie/pop-rock bliss…there are no overly-rounded edges that […]Read More
Mike Tro – Who I Am…(Hello My Name Is) – Album Review There are audibly about a million-ways to create a first impression and establish that memorable impact right away…and Mike Tro has found yet another one with a twisted opening to his new album Who I Am…(Hello My Name Is) with a blown-out, off-kilter […]Read More
