We have had experience with a number of different brands of car seats over the course of the last year or so. While it seems that everybody has a certain base level of quality that they achieve with their products, there is considerable difference in terms of the fit and the overall comfort of the car seat to the child between brands.
We last had a moment with Robert Allen of DownTown Mystic in late 2015. Over the course of the last 10 months, DownTown Mystic has released Rock’n’Roll Romantic. You’ve released a few singles/EPs in the last few years, but Rock’n’Roll Romantic is your first album since 2013’s self-titled release. What’s happened in your life in the intervening years? I made the album I always wanted to make with Rock’n’Roll Romantic.…
Imagine the metalcore-world we live in now, where Asking Alexandria is still trying to find its way back to its metalcore roots, and Bring Me The Horizon have arguably made the decision to go in a more commercialized direction with their new record. Pray tell where should we find our new Warped Tour-core messiahs now? I have found the answer: Bad Omens. They are setting the scene on fire with…
The Commuters create a touching track that ties together a strong piano line and wispy, raspy vocals. The track is pushes further with the inclusion of brilliant strings. The Commuters are able to tug on listeners’ heartstrings with You’ll Stay Right Here.
One Horse Town is a sizzling guitar track that has Todd’s vocals given just enough distortion to contribute to the overall harmony of the composition. Apfel is able to cross over quite nicely from alternative to pop-rock to hard rock, all while including nods to a variety of other genres. The gradual movement into different, distinct sections during this introductory track makes the four-plus minute run go by quickly.
Cold Soup is the first track on the new album from Angus Crowne and the Family Jewels, and it immediately comes forth with a hooky alt-rock building off the style of Talking Heads and Radiohead, with hints They Might Be Giants. There is an earlier musical tradition coming forth here as Angus Crowne pulls influence from the B-52s and Willie Nelsons. This eclectic opening ensures that fans will be treated…
Crooked Eye Tommy immediately draws listeners in with a blues-rock style. The narrative that Crooked Eye Tommy immediately starts Butterflies & Snakes with ensures that listeners will be on the edges of their seat. The emotional intensity of the guitar that is weaved through this effort further heightens the overall gravity of the recordings.
Hal B1n0 is able to make a feel-good sort of summer track with his current single “Sour Grapes”. The effort deftly blends together the singer-songwriter approach with a rapid-fire vocal delivery. This means that fans of rock, pop, and rap will be able to find something that they can appreciate. In the space of three minutes, Hal B1n0 is able to carve out his own unique space in music. With…
Juliet Huns’ Realized is the latest single from her Behind the Scenes EP, released earlier this year. This single is a fun mid-tempo track that links together pop and EDM into something that can be enjoyed either in a chill format (chatting, playing games) or as part of a DJ’s set / time spent at a bar.
Black Ice is the newest single from MAAD. The track refreshes the R&B style of artists like Rihanna and Beyonce with a lush instrumentation. This backing beat recalls the eighties with thick synths and assertive percussion.
