Why Can’t We Be Together is a frenetic track that will have listeners singing along after a scant few listens. The band is able to refresh the music style of AFI and My Chemical Romance and put their own spin on the track. The sing-along section of this track is as catchy as Pennywise’s “Bro Hymn”, but the tender emotionality that is laced through this effort shows a maturity that…

There is a strong hop nose that wafts after opening the can, providing imbibers with some sense of the trip that they will take during their time with Galaxy High, MadTree Brewing’s latest. Galaxy High pours with a dark orange / gold coloration and an off-white head that gradually dissipates. There is an alcohol burn that warms, hiding the 120 IBU well. As Galaxy High continues to warm, there is…

There…
Poolside starts out Caribbean Gold and provides listeners with a brief introduction to the eclectic style of Australia’s World Wild.

The alluring vocals are a perfect fit with a late-eighties / “West End Girls”-type of Pet Shop Boys.
