This record is full of sexy time grooves for an apres ski to remember. Husky / soulful vox....

The Lauderdale check in this week with their self-titled debut that puts the roll back into rock.

In a world full of poser bands, boys that get “did-up”, and prissy lyrics it is nice to listen to someone spit some game about drinking, smoking, and causing trouble.

There is a bit of nostalgia involved when digging into a breeders album. Last Splash was released in 1993

An Angle does a great job of keeping the listener engaged through this entire album. The songs are compelling enough and interesting lyrically. Vocalist Kris Anaya is reminiscent of Cracker’s David Lowry with the slightly cleaner tone of Tom Petty...

Music reviews of Neon Trees and The Wolfs. Neon Trees: Kevin Bacon would be proud that Neon Trees are revitalizing the repressed dance scene in and around Provo, Utah which isn’t far from where the movie Footloose was shot in ’84. With some synth sounds reminiscent of that era it’s also not hard...

Music reviews of The Descendants and Purr Bats. The Descendants: A classic punk band that is a must in your record collection.

Music reviews of The Yearbook, Murder By Death, and Roark. The Yearbook: Six spicy acoustic flavors on a menu of twang influenced rock obviously derived from being on the road and down-on-your-luck love stories. Its not quite country but The Yearbook stills manages to gun-sling some slide...

Music reviews of Casket Salesman and Authority Zero. Casket Salesman: With a name that evokes thoughts of the grim reapers best friend, I was pleasantly surprised that Casket Salesmen is all about robust guitar laden symphonies. These multi-faceted tracks of smooth vocal melodies, space rock...

Music reviews of Secret Machines and I Am The Avalanche. Secret Machines: The title of the first track, “Alone, jealous and stoned,” most definitely gives a good set of directions for listening to this killer record. Layers of smooth keys and heavy bass lines will leave you in a trance throughout...

Music reviews of House of Fools, Blood Brothers, and Copeland. House of Fools: Delicate ambience triggers relaxing notes throughout this short delivery from this freshman band. A rainy day intro leads into a much more diverse effort that includes the ragtime style of ‘Let’s Follow’ and the...
