Sum 41 Selections From Chuck CD Review

Coming through with much of the same metal-infused punk riffs that have made Sum 41 such a successful crossover band, these selections from “Chuck” are really par for the course from these Canadians. Much more ballsy and full of sound than their nearest competitors in their fellow nationals Simple Plan, Sum 41 still make tracks that are acceptable for the soccer moms all through the world. The punk sound…

Terry Sullivan The Erth Moovs Around The Sun CD Review

“Power World” is a strong opening for Terry Sullivan. I must say that before this album I had little clue who Terry Sullivan was, but I feel bad now because I had no previous knowledge of eir. The opening track here blends together a classic Tom Petty type of sound with a snarky early nineties alternative sound to create something that individuals will be singing along with for a…

The beer pours with a dark brown, along with an off-white head that sticks around long after the initial pour. The beer has hints of cocoa, coffee, and malt; a slight sweetness creeps through that makes for a very balanced effort.
