The rest of this album after track 3 is simply amazing!!! “Stay Frosty” delivers that classic “Ice Cream Man” “Diamond” Dave sound mixed with heavy breakdown beats. A modern day “Hot For Teacher.” If they had released “Stay Frosty” instead of Tattoo, fans all over the world would be punching people in the face, and turning over cop cars.
My very first taste of Thrice (Vagrant Records) was when I hopped on the MySpace page of popular non-profit group TWLOHA, (To Write Love On Her Arms) I heard the gloomy piano notes of a song called For Miles, once I heard the sound of Dustin Kensrue’s voice sing out the historic line: I know one day all are scars will disappear like the stars at dawn. Something kept my attention.
I’d almost like to say that the three piece band-Hands is like the post hardcore/metal version of The Glorious Unseen. In that almost every song on their new album (Give Me Rest) is a cry out to God.
I’m sitting here listening to the sounds of Burlap To Cashmere (Jive/Essential records), and I must say that I’m amazed at what my ears hear. Burlap to Cashmere (Jive/Essential records) isn’t necessarily my usual musical genre but I can honestly say that my musical taste has expanded with the release of their latest self titled [...]
he’s dusted off an old brass/percussion ensemble and mixed it with a little synthesized ghetto “hook.”
Ahead of the game and deep in the pocket of REAL production, this album unites underground Emcees, seasoned veterans, musicianship, and golden era sound.
The Dangerous Summer (Hopeless Records) are one of my favorite bands. I was excited to review their latest release “War Paint.” Their records are written with such talent, emotion, and ambition they’ll never let me down.
City of Ships (Translation Loss Records) latest release “Minor World” and bring a refreshing sound to a scene fueled with a lack of diversity of different bands. City of Ships stand out and should rise to the top with this musical masterpiece. These musicians have released one of the most creative records of 2011.
Fast Punk Rock, great lyrics, and an overall sense of perfection describes the latest visually controversial release from Living with Lions titled Holy S@#$. This record should be the life of any party and a release that’s so good you’ll want to buy a copy for your friends.
Two years after their last release, New Again, Taking Back Sunday (Warner Bros. Records) have brought together their original lineup to give us another great rock album. Rekindling friendships while throwing out the negative vibes, the self-titled album came together with anticipated positive results.
Some bands just get it. They put out great record after great record. Their sound doesn’t waver much and they seem to get better and better with every release. Protagonist (Paper + Plastick Records) do just that. It’s one great punk rock song after another. The States Ep opens with the title track “State.” For [...]
Less than Jake is back at it again. In my opinion they are the best Punk Ska band and the only one that never disappoints. With a summer full of warped tour dates waiting and a new dvd boxset, I knew that Less than Jake’s, new ep, Greetings From, would be just the music I needed to get this summer going.
When I first heard the band August Burns Red (Solid State Records), I didn’t like them. At the time, I wasn’t into such craziness, meaning fast paced music with lyrics you
couldn’t understand. But one evening I had my laptop open and was giving them another try. I had found a music site that hosted a few songs from their first
album, Thrill Seeker. After opening my musically path ways so to speak, I found myself in love with the breakdowns and pure intensity that is August Burns Red (Solid State Records).
Juliet Simm’s (lead singer of Automatic Loveletter) voice is so perfect after one listen to the new Auotmatic Loveletter acoustic album, “The Kids Will Take their Monsters On”, you’ll be telling all your friends. I was excited to hear the new Automatic Loveletter (Paper + PlastickRecords) record, “The Kids Will Take their Monsters On.” There [...]
What makes this album so unique is it’s clearly a Beastie Boys production. It almost seems to pay homage to their first album “License To Ill,” in terms of simplicity and lyric dictation.
