Blood on the Tracks – S/T (CD)

Everything on this EP is so perfectly constructed that it becomes hard to believe that a set of humans could come up with it; songs like “In Flames” elicit the perfect amount of emotions and fury while looking back to the middle nineties for influence. This retro sound is done much better than many of the other acts out now; the innovation done here actually goes farther in that there…

This record is a bold departure from her 2007 release Batten The Hatches, which thrust Youngs into the spotlight (and won her a record deal with Nettwerk) when her song “Fuck Was I” was featured on the TV show “Weeds”. anfnewsacctwww.neufutur.com

Blocko-Blocko (CD)

British band with very complexly mixed arrangements. Blocko is a pop-punk band with a slight hind of indy rock, with very speedy driving drumbeats and heavy bass use .In fact, all bases are equally covered by the band, as one second there is a bass solo, the next a killer drum beat. The songs are very catchy, as the bass lines are the most enjoyable part of the album, next…

Spain…On The Road Again (DVD)

I had no idea that Spain had such a rich culinary flavor to it. Sure, there have been countless shows done about Mexican and Italian cuisine, but I can’t seem but to think that Spain has been ignored in modern culinary circles. The amount of recipes that are provided at points during Spain are simply fantastic, and represent both old and modern interpretations of the tradition. While the show may…

Blivit – Unhand the World (CD)

Blivit comes through as a band on “Unhand the World” that is tremendously influenced by the seventies, specifically the arena rock that took over as the dominant musical style for a couple of years. However, much like “Blinded By The Light”, Blivit doesn’t use a guitar but rather a keyboard to make all sorts of nutty songs. At moments, the keyboard is virtually indistinguishable from a guitar line, but just…

Bling Kong – Do The Awesome (CD)

Hey, it’s like the B-52s lost about fifteen years and were thrown together as Bling Kong. The same eclectic instrumental sound mixes with a quirky male set of vocals and deepish female vocals. The only thing that one can possibly distinguish the two bands from each other has to to be the stronger instrumentation that Bling Kong has. The disc’s first track “I Want More” benefits from a strong bass…

Blinded Black – Under The Sunrise (CD)

“Death Is Never Permitted” has a moment of uncertainty present before Blinded Black start. While they come forth a very hard-hitting pop-punk meets emo and rock sound, this bit of confusion showed that the band is human. “Death Is Never Permanent” is a typical emo track, but does throw in something a little bit new. This time, Blinded Black place a synthesizer into the mix that hearkens back to all…
