Mariachi El Bronx – Bronx – Album Review You know…when I think about it, there’s a true advantage in the music of Mariachi El Bronx in that I can’t for the life of me remember hearing true ‘Mariachi-style’ tunes ever with English vocals before. I’ve certainly heard bands take a departure in their sound for […]Read More
Chasing Jonah – Prelude – Album Review Chills. That’s the way to start out a listen to new music if I had to choose one. A feeling that you’re about to hear something spectacular, something dynamic, something new. From the moment that lead singer Ashley Dudukovich started to sing on the new album Prelude by herself & her […]Read More
A.S. Swanski – Zafari – Album Review A.S. Swanski has put together an album that is extremely special here on Zafari. Highly experimental, the album plays somewhere in between the most fantastic parts in a Pink Floyd instrumental and pure, free-flowing art at its absolute best. The result is quite simply, an album unlike that which you’ll […]Read More
Collaborateurs – Put It On The Sleigh – Album Review I’m sorry. I am the Christmas music in your mall. I am the display that changed on Nov. 1st to Christmas mayhem the minute Halloween is done. It might be the 6th today, but let’s face it….I’m already reviewing the first holiday album of the year…could be in […]Read More
sASSafrASS – Greatest Hits Volume One – Album Review With what takes top-prize as easily the best band name I’ve seen since Balls Deep In Your Stepmom – the energetic rock explosion of sASSafrASS is a purely pleasurable experience.

Lost Gravity – Lost Gravity – Album Review This album hits hard & hits the spot for sure. As the opening track thundered into our studio speakers, my first impression was ‘Jesus – how many comparisons to Filter have these poor, poor gentlemen had to endure?’ Thankfully for them – that comparison is mostly valid only on […]Read More
Omar Bowing – 432 Hz – Album Review I’ve got to hand it to progressive alt-metal artist Omar Bowing – he’s created an album here with 432 Hz that instantly got my attention; opening track “Virus” comes out swinging like a prison-yard champion. What I also noticed – was an instant comparison I could draw to […]Read More
Death From Above 1979 – The Physical World – Album Review Scratching my eyes here…is this correct? Lil’ ol SBS has the honor of doing the review on the gigantic-sounds of this massively popular Canadian duo, Death From Above 1979? I’ve mentioned I love it here right? This…is incredible; and though I’ll admit I’ve been somewhat late to […]Read More
Wo Fat – The Conjuring – Album Review Just because it’s only five songs long doesn’t mean it’s not an album…trust me! These five tracks are just ridiculously meaty; heavy in all the right ways without a single ounce of overkill. All throughout this album, this psychedelic-rocking three-piece kept reminding me of what the perfect blend of […]Read More
