Take Control is an energetic track that will immediately provide listeners with Hannah Dorman’s inimitable style. There are hints of 90s rock, alternative, and an 80s tradition. With equal hints Stevie Nicks and Joan Osbourne, this is an effort that is intense, dense, and fulfilling from beginning to end.

Time And Colors is a richly emotive track that ties together Conor Oberst and John Rzeznik into a catchy, instrumental-heavy rock format. The deliberate arrangements elicit comparisons to Death Cab For Cutie, while the production allows the distinct elements in the tracks the ability to shine alone and as a unified front. Life in a Bag refreshes the style of John Mellencamp and Tom Petty, infusing a little bit of…

The rock and metal scene in the Cleveland area is cut-throat with a number of impressive acts touring and creating music. Impending Lies is an act that deserves to be placed in this pantheon, as their latest EP Believe builds upon metal, hard rock, and hardcore to create something that is hard-hitting and unique. The technical skill that the drums and guitars bring to Shine is without comparison, while Matt’s…
I Got Nothing is a pop track that has a consider depth to the composition; every second of this song has a number of things occurring. Whether it is Scott’s vocals, drums, pianos, or guitar, the specific array of sounds make for a composition that stands up to repeat listens.
Fans of Pure Bathing Culture’s 2013 record, “Moon Tides,” will find “Pray For Rain” a vast departure from the former’s sounds of vaguely perceived dreams washing out into the ether. While vocalist Sarah Versprille still has a voice which could be mistaken for The Cocteau Twins’ Elizabeth Fraser (sans the unintelligible lyrics of that band’s ’80s period), gone is the targeted production style that defined the band as purveyors of…
The impassioned opening to Just Walden’s latest single Robbie D ties together Fall Out Boy, Maroon 5 and Robin Thicke. The track deftly ties together EDM, pop, and rock genres with intense instrumentation and a catchy, funky beat. The ability of Just Walden to refresh the seventies style of Mannfred Mann and the Bee Gees is unparalleled.
Heavy Seas have created a new iteration of their Red Sky at Morning and have made an intense effort that will impress imbibers with a depth of flavors.

Red Sky at Morning’s first sip crashes upon individuals, with spicy (black pepper), candi sugar, grain, and hints of malt all discernable. After…
Spring Into My World is a tremendously effecting track by Sydney’s Sasha Leonov, led by a wide vocal range and a tremendously emotive disposition. The piano present here highlights Leonov’s world as well as crafts an alluring arrangement.
We were lucky enough to receive a sample of the QuickDraw 500 vaporizer for review in NeuFutur, and we are pleased to report that it is one of the most intuitive products that we have used. The device just requires a 3-second button press to get started after loading the chamber to heat, while an easy pull from the vaporizer will provide users with a solid mouthful of vapor.

So What is a bluesy, classic sort of rock that links together Charlie’s vocals with emotive guitars (Tony Fazio) and on-point drums (Greg Phillips). Those Things of Old is a track that links together psychedelic and bayou-tinged rock and blues into an unique format. The inclusion of harmonica during this track keeps Another Way hitting on all cylinders. Another Way succeeds due to sizzling guitar work laid down by Fazio;…
Having an easy way to clean a baby while having enough wiggle room for a little one is the tradeoff that a number of mothers and fathers face. A number of baby baths on the market are rigid, ill-fitting, and take up a large amount of room. The Stokke Flexi Bath looks to address a number of these issues. The bath is foldable, meaning that it can be stashed…
Put An Old Record On is a richly emotive track that needs little more than a guitar and vocals to get started. When the small amount of percussion enters in, considerable depth is provided. This is a tender and touching composition in the vein of a Conor Oberst or early Death Cab For Cutie, given a new sheen through the inclusion of folk and indie-rock.
We were up in Detroit, Michigan this last weekend and we received a room at the Greektown Casino and Hotel. We have been to the Greektown Casino a number of times as it is one of our favorite locations to go in Detroit. We have never had the opportunity however to go and spend a night at the casino’s attached hotel. We received one of the deluxe king accommodations on…
Will Archer, AKA Slime, has today shared a final glimpse of his forthcoming debut album Company, out August 14th. ‘At Sea Again’ sees Archer team up with Selah Sue. Hugely successful in her native Belgium and France, Sue’s vocals are usually found in less adventurous settings but under Archer’s guidance they become a transcendental, ghostly choir of one amidst chiming strings, clamorous percussion and a beautiful horn section – another…
The Barrel Aged Epeteios from Left Coast Brewing Company pours with a dark-brown to black coloration and a small amount of tannish head that laces its way down a glass. The initial nose of this imperial stout ties together hints of toasted malt, coffee, and chocolate. The beer balances the alcohol burn of the 10% ABV nicely with a sweetness that links together equal amounts sugar, cream, and butterscotch. The…
Mitt liv på papir is a dense and detailed track that will ensure that listeners need multiple plays before they understand everything that has been placed into the effort. The haunting guitars and pitter-patter of the drums here create a rich tapestry upon which Skrede’s emotive vocals rest. The overall sound of the track far outstrips the constituent elements, meaning that the effort will resound loudly long after the track has…
