The emotive style of The Sixfifteens really seems as if the band should have hit it big over ten years ago instead of just coming out now. “Model Glue” is a completely radio-friendly track and really succeeds due to a strong hand behind the production and a maturity that most bands just cannot enjoy. The instrumentation on “Montreal” is more of the same, with a tremendous amount of tension…
MAREN PARUSEL is a name you need to know, NOW! Out of the ashes of a terrible incident in which all of Maren’s instruments were stolen in New York City last year, shines a bright light out of the Midtown Tunnel and into an intense musical journey that you will not soon forget. What came of her sound is a revamped style of guitar-driven tones, synths, and the ability to…
Six Feet Under have been around for about a decade, and I must admit I was never introduced to them. It really is a pity, as after the opening section of “Feasting on the Blood of the Insane” the band really drives home a beat that shifts at certain times to something that has to provoke one of the most intense circle pits ever. The unity of the drums…

Imagine if Jello Biafra was a female. That is what Silverado’s singer, Tracy Lemieux sounds like, and this band continues in the Dead Kennedys vein, attacking each song with an amazing sort of urgency. Screaming is the normal vocal mode for Tracy, and there aren’t any ballads, any slow songs, anything that detracts from the normal rock’n’roll style that opens up the disc. “The Hook”, a song presumably about…
ENCHANT, the San Francisco Bay area’s long-running Prog Rock institution, has finally returned to the scene they once helped shape and establish! Originally founded in 1989 and with seven studio albums under their belt, it’s been a long silence for ENCHANT since their last official release, the Live At Last 2CD/2DVD set from 2004. ENCHANT is currently at work on an overdue, brand-new studio album, and have signed a new…

The rivalry that was present between the Hatfields & McCoys has been the subject of countless different television shows and articles in the last few decades. However, there has not been the attention to detail or sheer scope captured in the same way as it has during Hatfields & McCoys: Bad Blood. This film sticks well to the time period in which it is set, and benefits considerably from a…

This band actually really named itself and this album well, as the music contained on it is really space, with jangling guitars and airy lyrics. This is not to be meant in a negative way, but really is just a description of the band. Think of pop-rock, and you might have an idea of what this act sounds like. Surf rock meets up with strains of indie rock and mid-90s…
