All Right introduces 3D Friends as an act that deftly blends together pop-punk, emo, and electronic styles into a tremendously alluring style. The act is able to take influences as wide as The Red Hot Valentines, The Anniversary, Yellowcard, and Metro Station and provide their own unique twist.

Anthony Starble We Need To Be Loved EP Review

We Need To Be Loved is Los Angeles’ Anthony Starble’s latest release, and it captures four distinct facets of this multi-element performer. The title track on We Need To Be Loved begins with a tremendously emotive piano line that yields to a similarly moving set of vocals.

The GoAround Restating the Question CD Review

Make It Loud provides a very lively opening to Restating the Question, with The GoAround taking on a pop-rock style that is vibrant and compelling. The track could easily make it onto pop, rock, and alternative rotation while Alexander and Anthony Saddic immediately swing for the fences.

Ready Never provide a tremendous wallop with Take That Pill, the first single off of their album Eleutherophobia. This cut blends equal amounts of EDM and pop, creating something that will be on heavy rotation no matter whether individuals are in Miami, Ibiza, or any other dance hot spot. The vocal quality of the track is impressive, providing a nice foil for the lively arrangements.

A Modern Way To Die Pulse and Treatment CD Review

The band begins their Pulse and Treatment with a rock styling that touches upon late-nineties alternative and goth-rock. The grinding, intense (but ultimately radio-friendly) style of the band will tattoo itself into the minds and hearts of listeners, providing them with the momentum that they need to continue through Pulse and Treatment.

Oasis – Definitely Maybe [Remastered] CD

Putting aside for a minute the truly obnoxious personalities of the Gallagher brothers, it’s hard to find fault with the band’s debut, Definitely Maybe. Released in 1994, when the U.S. was still madly in love with grunge, Oasis lead a second British Invasion (well, tried, at least).

Southern Tier’s Goat Boy Review

Weizenbock beers are a different style than what many breweries are currently promoting, and I feel that Southern Tier really puts their best foot forward with their 7.5% entry, Goat Boy.
