Charity – Yellow

Charity – Yellow – EP Review Awww – how can you NOT support a beautifully-expressive artist like this? Charity is taking sweetness to an all-new level on her latest release, the Yellow EP, with jazzed-up infusions of R&B, funk & soul all written with a modern-day nod to the old-school song-writers who have helped pave […]Read More

Reditus – Persona

Reditus – Persona – EP Review I take a great pride in the connection I have with music and the ability to express it in words. In general, I’d say it’s an impossible task – so to get it anywhere even close to half-right is like an extraordinary accomplishment or stroke of luck each and […]Read More

The Abstract – Sleeping/Dreaming

The Abstract – Sleeping/Dreaming – EP Review Excellent name for this band…very, very apt. Upon starting-up the new EP – Sleeping/Dreaming – from Akron, Ohio’s The Abstract…I honestly wasn’t sure WHAT exactly I was listening to when the opening tune, “The Carnation,” began. It was like…one part Living Color, one part like…Ronnie James Dio…and a […]Read More

[…]Read More

Neighborhood Goliath – Between Satellites & Settling

Neighborhood Goliath – Between Satellites & Settling – EP Review Following one of the best nights of live-music I’ve seen in Vancouver in years, it’s a good thing I listen to as much of this music as I can before writing these reviews…I knew exactly which EP to turn today. I needed something solid that […]Read More

Gold Wolf – Gold Wolf

Gold Wolf – Gold Wolf – EP Review Sometimes you hear a sound of a band that comes out gunning so professionally that it just makes sense to the brain that one day you won’t be the only one hearing what you’ve just heard. I got that feeling about twenty-five seconds in when the bass, […]Read More

Dylan Sesco – Good Villain

Dylan Sesco – Good Villain – EP Review From Vertlife Entertainment, rap-artist Dylan Sesco comes out swinging on the Good Villain EP with six new songs in a darker-vein produced in follow-up to a project that took place earlier on called Pacific Coast Pharoah. Musically and lyrically, it does find a gritty, late-night-back-alley, dangerous vibe […]Read More
