Slow Burn Drifters’ The Divide is an emotionally intense effort that whips in Queens of the Stone Age and Wolfmother as influences, all while the dark charisma of the vocals here are reminiscent of The Tea Party and The Doors. The production of The Divide allows for the wind-swept guitars and jangly instrumentation to provide considerable depth to these vox. The insistent guitar work that bisects The Divide acts as…

Here are the seven recovery gaps that athletes often miss without specialised care, and why it’s important to manage them: 1. Incomplete Tissue Recovery…

M. Spano’s “Something Different” is a fun, engrossing effort that shines because of the performer’s unique style. To be sure, there are clear nods to emo and EDM music here, but the resulting track is able to transcend genre boundaries. I feel a bit of John Rzeznik (Goo Goo Dolls) in M. Spano’s vocal styling, further mooring Something Different into a deeper musical tradition. The overall arrangement is quite deep,…
Born Outta Step is one hell of a work. The latest track from The Infamous HER is able to incorporate a number of different musical styles.

The bit of fuzz that encapsulates the single calls out to early-nineties…

This is a multi-media experience in the vein of early Genesis or Frank Zappa, where a number of distinct…
Nuke The Soup’s Lost On You is an emotive, rich composition that showcases tremendous engagement with the song’s subject matter.
