Seagram’s Smooth Brazilian Rum (80 Proof)

There are so many rums present on the market now that it honestly feels as if most buyers will have no idea where to go for their rum needs. The amount of information differentiating the brands from each other is paltry, making it almost inevitable that buyers will pick out a sub-par rum sooner rather than later. However, Pernod Ricard has crafted a new rum and placed it under the…

Lewis & Clarke and Caroline Weeks to tour together this Summer

Musical sparks flew and they agreed to tour together one day, with Lewis & Clarke’s transcendental “I don’t cut my grass” peace-of-mind folk and Caroline Week’s Victorian “don’t tighten the corset”…

Cross Examination – The Hung Jury (CD)

The band plays an intense brand of thrash that takes into consideration the hardcore of acts like D.R.I. and earlier Raised Fist. The tracks blow by like nothing (with the average song lasting about a minute and a half), with the production of the disc allowing the band to sound a lot like they were playing all these songs live. Of course, the all-in choruses speak much to layering, but…

The Cringe – Tipping Point (CD)

While I am always leery of those bands that eschew new, better ways of recording, I still try to give the bands the benefit of the doubt. The Cringe use all analogue recording for “Tipping Point”, and “California” is the first track that most individuals will be familiar with when they first hear The Cringe. The track is a noisy type of rock that has hints of Blur, Goo Goo…
