Sevendust – Next (CD)

Sevendust start this album with a pretty hard rocking track in “Hero”. The fact with this track is that the song does not really lift individuals up like previous Sevendust tracks. It is middle of the road and does not enjoy the hooks that are needed to really bring individuals in by the barrelful. “Ugly” is a track that relies a little more on the creation of a vocal harmony,…

CLOUD NOTHINGS ANNOUNCES FULL US TOUR DATES

In 2009, Cleveland’s Dylan Baldi began writing and recording lo-fi power-pop songs in his parents’ basement, dubbing the project Cloud Nothings. His music quickly started making the Internet rounds, and fans and critics alike took note of his pithy songcraft, infectiously catchy melodies, and youthful enthusiasm. Baldi soon released a string of 7″s, a split cassette, and an EP before putting out Turning On – a compilation spanning about a…

Settlefish – dance a while, upset (CD)

Smartly using Jonathan’s synthesizer in place of a third guitar, Settlefish adds a different element to the chaotic soundscape that marks the compositions on dance a while, upset as paradoxical, intentionally human even through completely electronic instruments. Keeping along with the focus on the keyboards, Jonathan makes it the most versatile part of the band; the beat of “On Symmetry Pebbles” pokes a hole into one’s soul with each beat,…

Keep Shelly In Athens premieres new video

Almost a year after their debut, the aptly-named In Love With Dusk, Keep Shelly In Athens will be returning with 12″ EP Our Own Dream. The Grecian downbeat-pop duo meanders through almost-forgotten electronic salad days and R&B beats of yesteryear. Melding an Ibizan ethic with new age, atmospheric synthesizing, KSiA continues to push the convention of electronic music to the brink, a challenge to the Balearic norm. Like their previous…

Pillow Pets (Nintendo DS)

Pillow Pets are one of the latest kids’ fads, and it is not surprising that there would be some sort of video game released to capitalize on that trend. However, what I find surprising is that Pillow Pets is such a solid title, all things considered. The title is a little simplistic in terms of overall layout, but this effort is destined for the younger age brackets. The goal for…

Setherial – Death Triumphant (CD)

“Death Triumphant” starts out in a fairly normal way. The band is playing at breakneck speeds, but there is nothing that brings Setherial to that next level. The first track on the disc is “Limbo of Insanity”, and while it is fun to listen to, one cannot hear anything that has not been done before on this track. The title track begins in much of the same vein, with Setherial…

Dwarr – Starting Over (CD)

There are CD reissues all the time. However, many of these re-releases still sound as if they were created in an earlier period. Dwarr’s 1984 album, Starting Over, has a timeless quality to it that simply is not present in many of the recordings that are reissued every year. This is because Animals touches upon the different musical currents that were present in 1984and creates an utterly unique and haunting…

Sepultura – Dante XXI (CD)

Sepultura has changed a lot in the last few years. One of the first metal albums that I ever bought was a copy of “Roots Bloody Roots”, and the band seems to have moved well beyond that style in the 6 or 7 years since I picked up that album. There seems to be a lightness among the tracks on “Dante XXI”, one in which the bass is eschewed for…
