Beyond Fear – S/T (CD)

The first track of this album is something that immediately grabs hold of listeners and does not let them go for the entirety of the track. Of particular note are the rapidly escalating guitars that dot the track, something that will bring in listeners by the barrelful.

Arlene Bishop – Cut A Man’s Heart Out (CD)

Pieces of Sheryl Crow and Sarah McLaughlin make their way to the front of “Cut A Man’s Heart Out”, as Bishop does a strong, vocal-led pop assault (pop as in the tradition of Suzanne Vega, not as in the case of Ms. Spears. The light country-influence placed on the top of “Metaphor for your Life” really allows Bishop to really work with a broad range of sound in what traditionally…

The Biltmores – Same Story, Same Ending (CD)

The Biltmores play a very contemplative brand of indie rock that individuals will first encounter during “Buried Underground”. The beginning of the track is nothing to write home about, but the band does well in adding additional layers to the track, under there is a Primus meets Rise Against funk. This groove is something impressive, provides individuals something to dance to, and is fundamentally different from anything else that anyone…

Billy Talent – Billy Talent II (CD)

Billy Talent is one of my favorite emo bands just because the band has a certain distinct sound that no other band can even come close to approximate. I first heard about the band when I picked up a copy of their “Lies” (the song, not trying to say it was a single or anything). The song was just so catchy and it knocked off another then-high band, Wakefield. We…

South Park: The Complete Twelfth Season (DVD)

Twelve years into it, South Park still manages to be surprisingly fresh. Any argument against that statement is squelched with the third episode into this collection, “Major Boobage,” an homage to the classic stoner cartoon Heavy Metal thanks to cat urine. Sure the cartoons are still crudely drawn and the jokes even cruder, but let’s be honest you either think fourth graders saying “fuck” is funny or you don’t.

Bill Madden – Samsara’s Grip (CD)

Opening up “Samsara’s Grip” with one of the most far-reaching and impressive alternative rock songs, Bill Madden inserts bits and pieces of R.E.M., New Radicals, and the like to make a compelling and ingratiating song. Moving more into the Dave Matthews-brand of vocalization, some form of drive forces “Masterpiece” in a realm that is not usually traversed by the former’s music.
