“His Love” is an EDM track that showcases powerful vocals, the intensity of immaculately-sequenced arrangements, and a varied approach that will have listeners finding new twists and turns long after they have first listened to the efforts. The single hurtles to its inevitable end with impressive synths, hints of dubstep, and a back and forth set of vocals. “His Love” is a track that deserves radio play, touching upon a…
Spiral opens up SakkieFTW’s Experiment 1.3.2, and it immediately sets the stage for the overall sound of the EP. The dark and deep sound utilizes angular sounds and a softer/harder dynamic that links together dubstep and industrial for something truly beautiful.
Volbeat was a band I discovered back in 2009 when someone posted one of their videos in a metal forum that I read. After reading they were described as a mix of Elvis, Johnny Cash and Metallica, I had to give them a listen and wow was I blown away by how kick ass this band was. I really liked their unique sound and crunching guitar riffs and digging further…
All Mixed Up needs little more than a woman and her guitar to establish a fulfilling effort. When the rest of the band enters into the equation, what results is a country & western and 1960s-pop styled track that has something for everyone to appreciate.
New Orleans legend Professor Longhair (ne’ Henry Roeland Byrd) may have died close to 40 years ago, but labels are still uncovering and releasing flawless live sessions the piano great recorded over the years and “Live in Chicago” is no exception.

Richmond, Virginia’s Strangeways Brewing has created four distinct variants of their Ape Armageddon Imperial Stout, all which have been aged in different barrels. We received the set – a Caribbean Rum barrel-aged, Kentucky Rye whiskey barrel-aged, Tequila barrel-aged and a Kentucky bourbon-barrel aged variant.
We The Wild are Portland’s snarling but utterly-self-assured working class under-wolves. Like a brigade of post-math samurais with a fucked-up guitar-drums free jazz sound exploding on a hard-scampering bed of machine-gun drum etiquette, their debut is a gleaming beast.
Frank Turner is a stellar musician and songwriter with an appeal that attracts folk fans just as much as punk rockers. But on the surface, despite an increasingly higher profile with each new record, he seems like an unlikely candidate for a traditional rock memoir. Just shy of a decade into his solo career, all indications are that he’s still a long way off from putting the guitar in the…
Too Soon is a powerful track that will immediately draw listeners in with strong vocals, bold guitar lines, and on-point drum lines. Immediately presenting a radio-friendly single, Rachel Stacy is able to continue the album’s goodwill with Travelin Man. Travelin Man is an homage to strong female performers including Janis Joplin and Sheryl Crow. The lightest of instrumentation is utilized here, a move that allows Stacy’s pipes ample opportunity to wow.…
