With the chorus “Sinful, Liberal, Animal, …How shall I tame thee,” the song brings sex and swagger in a way only Coleman and Jagger could.

Bassist Chris Nadeau (of noise-punk band Blast & the Detergents) and wife/drummer Susan Dickson teamed up with guitarist James Bess (ex-Dumbwaiters, Insect Joy) to form Permanent Makeup in 2010. The band played their first show together without ever having practiced. The venue: a doctor’s office. Mostly improvised; w/ audience members reading infomercial ad copy in lieu of a singer, they called it a success eventually writing new songs and taking…
Never Try to Change You 2 is a catchy bit of pop-country that touches upon Shania Twain, Stevie Nicks, Sheryl Crow, and Natalie Cole before ending. The rapid-fire delivery of Longo’s vocals keeps the tempo high, ensuring that listeners will continue to stick with the disc. The momentum achieved by Never Try to Change You 2 is bolstered through Tangled Up. This effort succeeds because it stands out from…
High Tonight is an incredibly high energy track, and it shows that each member of Engloria throws their heart and soul into the track. The guitar, drums, bass, and vocals unite to make a stellar track. The titular track adds a little bit of psychedelic folk and pop into the mix, recalling the halcyon days of Oasis and Blur. Engloria is talented enough to update this Britpop-styled sound; there…

I believe that the most difficult task that a musician can take is committing oneself to the creation of a ten minute-plus track. The difficulty of this effort is so high due to the sheer amount of work one has to put in. It is simply not enough to merely repeat different arrangements (albeit with minor variations) for the bulk of the composition. Opening Sound dives headlong into this enterprise…
It is rare to hear such a narrative-heavy album. Hints of Donovan, Phil Ochs, and Simon & Garfunkel can all be heard in Blood and Thunder’s first track, Mister D. The instrumentation on the track has a similar gravity to it. Strum takes an interesting tack during this album; rather than having the instrumental arrangements continually red-line a listener’s speakers, there is a careful consideration for how each part…

The guitar work is what will immediately bring listeners in to FlyPaper’s self-titled release.

The clean interior of the Brick House Tavern feels inviting, especially when one considers the fireplace and couches that comprise a large amount of the non-bar area. The Yard Bird Sandwich was the hero of the day, containing bacon, provolone, hot (sriracha) mayo, lettuce, tomato, and pickles. While the sandwich seems busy, I can assure you that the constituent parts unite to make something considerably greater than the sum…
