Lisa Lim Self-Titled LP CD Review

Superstitious Mind is a hard-rocking track that ties together the work of Guns N’ Roses with a more current and contemporary (Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood) country sound. My Perfect World keeps with a strong instrumentation and showcases Lim’s eclectic set of influences. With more than a passing nod to sixties psychedelic rock and nineties grunge, My Perfect World has the hooks necessary to garner a substantial amount of replay. Broken…

Iration Automatic CD

  Automatic showcases Iration’s own unique take on reggae; hints of 311 and Sublime can be heard even as the band takes a more pensive and even progressive-tinged approach to their music. The production during this introduction will pique listeners’ interests, which the band uses to great effect during Show Me. Show Me is a radio-ready track that looks back to the days of The Police and the second wave…

Captain Morgan Sherry Oak Finish Spiced Rum Review

  There is a decidedly more complex flavor to the Sherry Oak Finish than to the original Captain Morgan. I feel it is this an amazing take on a classic spirit, with the classic Captain Morgan’s acquiring an evolved flavor by virtue of its time in sherry oak. The initial aroma of the Sherry Oak Finish Spiced Rum is very sweet, with hints of vanilla and raisin coming forth immediately.…

The Joy of Painting Tender Age LP Review

Seeming to come out of nowhere, Nashville’s Joy of Painting have just turned in one of the most exciting EPs of the year, genres be damned (they happen to straddle garage, punk and pop, in case you were wondering). With just seven songs, the band has actually managed to make Indie rock sound fresh, a big task when you consider that just about every band with a release in 2013…

NCAA Football 14 Review

The graphics of NCAA Football 14 for the PS3 are absolutely brilliant, rendering some of college football’s most well-known stadiums and fan bases in a vibrant and realistic style. The game play allows for individuals to immediately pick up the game and pull off a victory against the AI, but the learning curve of the title is so intense that friends will be debating the victor for years to come.…

Photon band Pure Photonic Matter Album Review

Philly psychedelic Indie pop rockers the Photon Band have been at it since the early 90’s and they remain just has hard to categorize as they’ve ever been. Sounding like MC5 on one track and The Smithereen’s on the next, the band seamlessly skips from one genre to the next. Pure Photonic Matter [Volume 1], their latest, starts off with a swirl of electronic noise and what sounds like a…

Weedeater Concert Review – Austin, TX – July 3rd, 2013

Dixie Dave Collins is a fixture of stoner metal. He was a force to be reckoned with during his tenure in Sourvein and the legendary Buzzov*en in the 90s. He rocks the bass with a fury in Bongzilla and Hail! Hornet, all the while fronting the drug-fueled powerhouse, Weedeater. They brought their mammoth sound to Red7 in Austin on Wednesday July 3rd while playing the inside stage. Mala Suerte opened…

Rogue Wallet Reviewed

  Wallets have been utilized for a substantial amount of time, but there have been few upgrades to the square-styled format since it was introduced. Rogue Industries’ Rogue Wallet is one of the best products that we have reviewed in 2013, as the company creates a solid wallet that completely shatters the conceptions that one would have about the oft-gifted accessory. One will immediately see the Rogue Wallet’s biggest change…

An Atheist in the Foxhole Book Review

At this point there should not be a single person in this country shocked by the revelation that Fox News – run by longtime Republican strategist Roger Ailes – is simply a tool for conservative issues. Even the tag line “Fair and Balanced” is now delivered in a tone dripping with sarcasm. So Joe Muto’s insider look at the network shouldn’t be met with hand-to-the-mouth shock, but is more likely…

Alaskan Stout Review

  For those that have access to the Alaskan Stout, they should immediately search out a bottle. This is due to the smooth mouthfeel, absolutely dark color ,and full head that pours from each beer. The slightly heavier ABV (5.7%) allows for a hint of burn to moderate the coffee and caramel flavors that are present. With subsequent sips, bits of smoke and toasted malt become evident. Makes the beer…
