Marc Carroll Stone Beads & Silver CD Review

  Stone Beads & Silver begins with Muskingum River, an effort that will immediately draw listeners in.

The Fool Disguised In Beggar’s Clothes is full of outward pomp and inward reflection, allowing Carroll to place eir emotions on the table. You Can Never Go Home…

Street Dogs Savin Hill CD Review

  Forget the Dropkick Murphies, the Street Dogs are where it is at. The new band from the Dropkick Murphies ex-lead singer, Mike McColgan, plays working-class punk-rock with a polish that is sadly lacking from too many releases of the type. Each song comes roaring out of the gate, and provides the listening audience with a sing-able chorus like some of the most memorable Murphies tracks. The title track, along…

Girl$ Live Action Movie Blu-Ray and DVD Combination Review

  Girl$ is a film that focuses on sex workers in Hong Kong, which can provide viewers with a listing of the activities that they will do with a set of rates. What becomes painfully obvious in Girl$ is that this occupation changes each individual entering into it, no matter which side of the transaction that one may be on. The specific reason why the sex workers featured in the…

The Stranger’s Six A Date With Daylight CD Review

  The Stranger’s Six play a brand of rock that is not very well defined during the opening track with “A Date With Daylight”. TI mean, the band uses hints of acts like Alkaline Trio and Rise Against to craft their own sound, but the track does not give listeners anything that they have not heard before. The act needs to create something new, something exciting, so that they might…

Boulevard 80-Acre Hoppy Wheat Beer Review

  80-Acre is a beer that will be at home in countless bars across the United States, but has a decidedly more complex mouth feel than anything that would be on tap. The intersection of biting hops and more smooth wheat notes create a complex flavor that will showcase distinct elements with each subsequent sip. A pour yields a fairly thick head along with a slight bit of carbonation; the…

Heaven & Earth Dig CD Review

  Heaven & Earth is a band that looks to continue creating classic rock in a period where many bands from the seventies and eighties merely recreate old hits and rest on their laurels. What Dig does is showcase that this rock form still lives and can thrive if the band playing it is talented enough. Heaven & Earth is an act that was born from the ashes of Sweet,…

Jessie Ware Devotion CD Review

      Jessie Ware has made an album in Devotion that blends equal parts pop, EDM, and an intimate singer-songwriter approach. While the album was released late last year in Europe, Devtion’s US release contains additional tracks and represents one of the locations of the incredible Wildest Moments remix (featuring ASAP Rocky).

KinZie Feature

  KinZie is a relatively new act, formed in 2011, that looks to change what individuals perceive music to be. The band’s approach to music is a collaborative one, tying together a disparate array of styles and influences into something great. This means that Shake the Foundation can call forth Detroit rock legends (Ted Nugent, The White Stripes) even as hints of industrial and alternative genres are threaded through the…
