Spitalfield seems to have a lot more coherent effort with this album that they didn’t have the ability to have with their last album. The whole band works together to provide a solid, cogent sound that is at all times radio friendly and poppy, but the question remains whether it is good. Beginning “Stop Doing Bad Things” with the Rush-influenced (at least in terms of bass) “So I Heard…
Soulful R&B singer-songwriter Mateo marks his major label debut with the release of his EP, Suite 823, which will be available digitally on October 9th. Grammy Award winner Kerry “Krucial” Brothers (Alicia Keys, Nas, Drake) produced the nine track EP, which includes “Carry On,” “Looking You Up” (a duet with Stacy Barthe), and a stripped-down cover of Lana Del Rey’s “Blue Jeans.” Celebrating the release of Suite 823, Mateo…
The disc starts off with what I can only presume is a homeless person rattling on and on about religion. Sure, there is a light form of instrumentation, but this vocal track is a focus of Sparrows Swarm and Sing during the early part of this three-part EP, which clocks in at less than thirty minutes. I can see where the song may be very experimental, but the vocals…
Pac-Man was an absolute force in the early eighties, and the video game spawned a cartoon. The second season of Pac-Man aired through 1983 and contained 16 episodes. This cartoon is a classic, but has not received a DVD release up to this point. After the release of the first season, Warner has continued restoration and collection work on the show. Happy Pacs-Giving is an updated version of the classic…

Ska with pseudo boy band vocals. What I mean by boy band vocals is the fact that they are so clean and clear. The Spanish Word For Danger is very talented in keeping all parts of their band from making interference, and at one time the trombone, drums, guitars, bass and vocals are all playing, creating a very interesting song. The brand of ska put out by TSWFD is such…
“Lights Out” is the kind of track that fits to every dance floor, as it will get anyone sing along right after the first chorus before breaking down into a progressive big room monster. > LISTEN TO “LIGHTS OUT” > WATCH THE OFFICIAL VIDEO OF “LIGHTS OUT” Since Ian Carey has toured during the last few months around the world and captured clubs with his sound in Asia, Australia, South…
Mill Creek Entertainment has been on fire. They have just released decade sets including tens of films with a value price (a hair under $25). We were lucky enough to receive their Swinging Seventies set for review, but the company has also released sets for the forties, fifties, sixties, and eighties. The titles that are presented here include a veritable who’s who of famous Hollywood actors; George C. Scott, James…
The band is more based towards the ska style than Common Rider, but the two bands seem to share a lot of similarities. Both bands successfully integrate a number of different musical genres to create an entirely new style. Nevertheless, the Spitvalves are one of the very few bands that actually have not made the move over to making purely emo music, as so many of their stylistic family have…
The Spinto Band really feel as if they have just been transported by a time machine to the current period from the middle-nineties. “Did I Tell You” is a powerful piece of indie-pop, with definite influences touching the band through both Weezer and They Might Be Giants. Each track on “Nice And Nicely Done” is created with the utmost care, the style of music that indie-chic Velma would do…

Recently re-released by Concord…
The first track on “Seamless” is the title track; while it seems like a smart idea to start off the disc with a bold statement of one’s sound, the back and forth nature of the backing instrumentation really seems cold and impersonal, lacking in its duty to really uplift Spicer’s Cranberries meets Stevie Nicks type of vocals. There is an audible change in the style of instrumentation present on…
