Good eye, Coheed, you make, we love… The story picks up where the last disc closes, and I’m not even talking about the amazing story line/comic book series that is one of the most intelligent bands of our generation.

Musically and lyrically Claudio Sanchez (vocals/guitar), Travis Stever (guitar), Michael Todd (bass), and Josh Eppard (drums) provide yet another…

Pre-orders of the album will come with a free, digital download of the 2009 limited-pressing 7-inch, It’s Made Me Cry.

I had no clue before looking at the promotional one-sheet that Luke Donald was a golfer. Terlato Wine has entered into an agreement with Donald to brand a number of their efforts with eir name, and we received a bottle of the 2007 Chardonnay for review. After draining this bottle, we learned two things. First, the heaviness of the glass used to bottle this wine is such that one could…
Imagine the Ramones, add a little bit of the earliest gothabilly put forth by 45 Grave, and throw in just a hint of the Misfits to come forth with “Frankensteinâ€, The Coffin Lids’ first output on “’Round Midmightâ€. The Lids have a minor hiccup in the repetition that drags down “Teenage Shakedownâ€; the guitar solo on the track is almost long enough to erase all memory of this rut. Place…

What a difference two years make. On Trio B.C., the band’s sophomore record, San Antonio’s Girl in a Coma has matured greatly, both musically and lyrically. It’s not that their debut was bad, just very clear that the band grew up listening to The Smiths and not a whole lot else.

“Dr Jekyll†is a perfect track. I had not heard of Naree before receiving a copy of their “Jekyll & Hyde†disc for review, but after hearing this song, I am hooked. The style of music that this female-led act puts out is something that moves between alternative rock, pop, and even punk at points. This means that lead singer Naree simultaneously sounds like Avril Lavigne, Natalie Imbruglia, and Hayley…
“Krazy†is a bit of strong guitar-driven rock-infused music that takes on all genres and musical styles equally. This means that there are hints of hard rock and even alternative placed alongside the dominant rock/country mélange that first hits listeners. “Krazy†is destined for radio rotation; with high energy and Young following on a musical tradition that goes all the way back to Cat Stevens and Jackson Browne, the track…

The flow that is achieved during the track is tight as all get out, providing an…
An elusive new project from composer Alan Palomo. Neon Indian delivers equal parts synthetic nostalgia, Dreampop lullabies, and grinding guitar noise to create something eerier than the sum of its parts. Forged after a hazy winter gathering in Texas, this initial batch of tracks were the result of field recordings, record samples, a collection of bizarre synth sounds. Soliciting the visual acrobatics of Video artist Alicia Scardetta, this project is…
This is one dark tequila. This is due to the fact that the spirit has been aged in oak barrels in much the same way as whiskey, imbuing all aspects of the Black Medallion with a smoky timbre that sets it off from all other tequilas on the market. The first experience beyond simply seeing the Jose Cuervo Black Medallion will be when one cracks open the bottle; the earthy,…

The very sedate sound of “Sole Provider†has an 80s sheen to it that taps equally the Mr. Mister and John Tesh feel; something that is equally innocuous and dulled-edge in impact. “More For You†continues the 80s feel by bringing a little Huey Lewis and the News to the general sound of the disc. There seems to be a weird set of production values on this disc that make…
