Conviction Pale Ale is what BridgePort fans chose when tasked with a decision between three different beers last year during the brewery’s thirtieth anniversary. The beer pours with a dark yellow to orange coloration and a small (but persistent) white head. There is a sweet nose that is followed up by a slight hop bitterness. The first sip will provide imbibers with a decent amount of grain, smaller amounts of…
I Do It All for Rock ‘n’ Roll comes forth with the glitz and glamour of a Ratt or Cinderella; the piano that is interspersed during this track establishes The fundaMentals as creating something that looks to the past while still having a current and contemporary flair.

Contamination is a high-energy assault that still has enough in the way of hooky arrangements and alluring vocals to make a play for heavy rock rotation. An absolutely sickening guitar line tears up the track and allows for The Frequency to provide a wholly different sound for the second half of the track.

Where does your band name come from? Dave New: I’ve always been inspired by literature and Graham Greene has always been one of my favorite authors. His first release back in the early 1900’s was a volume of poetry entitled ‘Babbling April’ which was critically panned and quickly got pushed out of print.

Blue Moon has just updated their product line with their latest, a White IPA; the beer pours with a hazy yellow to gold coloration and a very lightly off white head. There is a bready, yeasty nose to this beer that is punctuated by a slight hop bite. The initial sip is a skillful blend of these styles – there are hints of pepper, wheat, and sugar that is followed…

Across the Sea is your debut album. What story does it tell? It’s a story about a lot of things, really. Most clearly it’s about being young and losing your first love. The stuff I was writing about, I had been in a relationship for 3 years and then I moved away from home and we broke up and I just felt like my whole world was falling apart. SargeantJohn…

CommonUnion59’s Heartbeat Serenade begins with It’s Alright. The track does well in providing a proper introduction for fans, all while the act holds a number of cards close to their chest. There is a dynamic that is created between the two sets of vocals that stand separately from most music played on the radio, while the set of influences that can be discerned during this track ranges the gamut from…

This is an idiot-proof battery. Patriot has made the process from initial opening to charging an easy one. There are so few ways for things to go awry that the FUEL+ line should be purchase for anyone that requires additional charge for the day. There are two ports a 1 and 2.5 A port to allow for a more nuanced method of charging. SargeantJohn Sargeant, writing on NeuFutur as Sargeant,…
Born and bred in Eugene, Oregon, Amos Lachman is the new rapper you need to know.

Great Divide’s Old Ruffian pours a rich mahogany that possesses a full, off-white to tannish head; this head seemingly grows larger as the beer approaches room temperature. The beer has a similarly dense collection of flavors comprising the nose, with notes of sugar, spice, and a wee bit of malt all poking through. Where traditional offerings in the barleywine style can be overwhelmingly sweet, Old Ruffian’s considerable hop presence creates…
Hollow Ground creates some sick and funky riffs with the introductory salvo from their new EP. This sound builds off of the work of acts like Alice in Chains and Corrosion of Conformity, with the tremenedous arrangements that comprise the album tattooing themselves deep into the psyche of anyone listening in. The anguished vocals that kick in after the first minute of A Way Forward provide additional credence for the legitimacy…
