Floridian heavy trio FLOOR are about to embark on their first proper tour in over eight years. Since disbanding, FLOOR’s overdue notoriety has slowly grown, due in part from laying the foundation for guitar player/vocalist Steve Brooks’ non-stop activity in TORCHE. Reuniting to celebrate the release of their massive “Below & Beyond” discography/box set, FLOOR returned for a few key shows over the past year to an overwhelmingly positive response.…

The release came through Bar/None Records and bonus tracks included “King of Fuh” which was slated to be released on Apple Records – copies manufactured and everything — till EMI refused to…

This band has had one previous recording – 2009’s A Fish Hook An Open Eye – which set the stage…

There are few singer-songwriters that are able to create something that successfully marries the rich tradition brought the genre by luminaries like Dylan and Cohen in the sixties with a vitality and vibrancy that is germane to current audiences. However, I believe that Tom Shaner does just that on his new recording, Get Real or Get Gone. This disc begins with “Waltz 13”, a track that does more than merely…
The Way Back is a film that covers ground that has been trod fairly often; World War II. Furthermore, this is a title that focuses on the escape of prisoners from a Soviet prison camp. Saying that, what Jim Sturgess (Across the Universe, Legend of the Guardians), Colin Ferrell, and Ed Harris do in The Way Back is create a realistic and extremely fun title.
“Invest in Heaven” is the first track on “Front Row Seat To The End of the World”, and it will immediately bring listeners to the dance floor.
