Raised Fist – Sound of the Republic (CD)

I think that Raised Fist might just be the most obvious band out on the market as we speak. This means that when “Sound of the Republic” starts up, individuals know what band is playing from the get-go. The blend of hardcore and punk that Raised Fist has been created the last decade or so is really mastered during this disc, and “Sound of the Republic” should be a blueprint…

The Radium Screen – White Faces (CD)

If the band does not have a Franz Ferdinand album amongst the two of them, I would be surprised. A heavy electronic focus mixes with an angular sound to make something that is danceable while being aloof at the same time. However, this is not always the fancy free sound of Franz Ferdinand, as tracks like “Amen” has a darker, Ministry-like feel. The vocals are the same through the first…

Joshua Radin – We Were Here (CD)

For me, Joshua Radin really came out of nowhere. I think I had vaguely heard of his name before, but I could not place any sort of track or style to eir face. From the opening of “Sundrenched World”, one can hear that there is some panoply of interests that coalesce into Radin’s distinctive style. To try to lump Radin in with the styles of individuals like Dave Matthews or…

Racecar – 10 Songs (CD)

Racecar makes me sad, especially when I was looking forward to some hard-rocking, emotional-fury. Racecar plays a brand of indie-rock that begins with “Out Tonight”. “Out Tonight” reels in listeners through fickle feelings that allow Nick, Alex, Jimmy and Rich to jump to the limits of alternative rock with the greatest of ease. The coaching of emotional fury in what would be some of the most sedate-sounding tracks (“George Washington”)…

This March, North America will get a rare chance to see one of the best live shows going. Coming off their acclaimed 2010 release Church With No Magic and tour of the US, PVT (formerly Pivot), known for their visceral live shows, seething masses of post-punk guitars, brutal drums and bass-heavy electronics – couldn’t get enough, and are coming back. They will support one of BBC’s ‘Sounds of 2011’, the…

Racebannon – The Turntable: Singles and Rarities (1997-2005) (CD)

I can’t tell if “The Killer” is brilliant or just someone spitting out lyrics over a sludge-metal type of backdrop. This is a collection of Racebannon’s music from the last eight years, in order to gear people up for the upcoming fourth album. Immediately noticeable is the extreme length of a number of these tracks; hell, the first two tracks added together achieve nearly fifteen minutes on their own. This…

Gravity Vortex

There are a number of different companies that frequent the water pipe and similar type of scenes, and I cannot say how many of them seem to put the bare minimum of work into their products. Vortex Water Pipes is decidedly the opposite of that, and their Gravity Vortex is one of the best products that we have received for review over at NeuFutur. The coloring is by far the…

Daniel Patrick Quinn – Ridin’ The Stang (CD)

The way in which Daniel Patrick Quinn puts a set of vocals onto “Ridin’ The Stang” is interesting, to say the least. Gone is any form of harmony, replaced by an atonal and aharmonic voice that talks over the dirge-rock of tracks like “The Burryman”. The extended length of “The Burryman” really allows Quinn to paint an epic tale that is not a little bit creepy – the repetitive instrumentation…
