We Heroes, the latest single from London’s Akash Mehta, is a heartfelt and impassioned song that will tattoo its melodies deep into the minds and hearts of listeners. Chris Gayle showcases unparalleled depth and talent with his vocals; hints of Nico & Vinz and Jason Derulo can be discerned here. The dynamism of We Heroes ensures that the replay value of this cut is higher than the average radio single.
“Living The Dream” by Velinski featuring Sertari is a track that timelessly ties together the pop of the early nineties with a vibrancy that will make fans of current R&B dig this composition. The considerable vocal power exerted here does just as much to ferry the overall harmony of the single as the backing instrumentation. The two elements combine to create something decidedly greater than their constituent parts.
This is a solid release from Prong – the opening track “Ultimate Authority” gets things going with that raw crunching guitar sound that we metalheads love and gets your head banging from the start. Every song on here will have your head nodding at some point. There is a change of musical pace from their traditional sound with “Do Nothing”, sort of ballad like, but does pick up as it…
The Moonies Anthem begins Moonies K.l.o.u.D gang’s Phases of The Moon with an intense blend of hard-hitting instrumentation and knife-edged flow. The hook is used to great effect here, tattooing the lyrics deep into the minds of listeners. Mooninight Riders is a bass-heavy cut that has an intricate flow requiring listeners a number of spins before hearing every syllable and nuance to the effort.
NeuFutur Magazine is premiering the scenic and serene video for “The Future Perfect,” the new single from acclaimed electronic songwriter DeModa. DeModa describes the music of “The Future Perfect” as “very soft and endearing for the purpose of showing the sensitivity the protagonist feels towards the antagonist.” He attributes the song’s serene nature to a mother’s love for her child, and notes that the video for “The Future Perfect” perfectly…
Aluk Todolo returned to the studio during May – June 2015 to record their fourth album, entitled Voix (“voice[s]” in French). And now, the album is set for European release on February 5th via Norma Evangelium Diaboli [NED] (same date in North America via The Ajna Offensive).
As the press materials that accompanied this record from Athens-based Antlered Aunt Lord so aptly describe it, the band (essentially Jesse Stinnard) is “the missing link between the Pixies and The Byrds if they’d been raised in the Appalachians.” No truer statements has ever been written in a press release. This oddball collection of nearly 20 songs is the perfect anecdote for what passes an “Indie Rock” today
With just four songs, Austin musician – by way of Louisiana – Ben Millburn makes an pretty meaningful first impression. On his debut, Strange Love & Consequences, Millburn blends classic rock with soul and pop for a sound that is instantly familiar.Of the four, the opening/title track is probably the strongest of the batch, but there really are no weak ones here. The production is minimal adding to a realness…
Straddling a thin line between garage rock and space pop, LA-based Mod Hippie turn in a debut that’s as satisfying as it is odd. The band mixes a wide collection of influences from psychedelic odd balls like Syd Barrett, with Beach Boys harmonies and Sonic Youth angular guitars
Over the course of the last year, we have been fortunate to sit down with Dena and give her last album, Lullabies, a review
Squirtgrandhoover’s Dis Letter of Mind is able to go back into the mid-1990s for a hard and gritty style, touching upon hints of 2Pac and the Gravediggaz. A backing beat builds off of the work of late-oughts/early-2000s New Orleans, while the flow that issues forth during Dis Letter of Mind is straight fire.
Five Fingertips have just released the video for “Nod” off of their 2015 self-titled release. The video is a good way to see the context in which the act would like the song to be understood; when there is a little wiggle room in regards to how a listener will conceive of the music that an act releases, this music video does well in keeping one’s attention. Bold logos…
George Harrison’s All Things Must Pass is a hard-edged and intense track that flitters with a hint of goth; the overwhelming fuzz that is interspersed in this introductory effort bolsters Steve’s vocals, which come forth with a heavy dollop of Neil Young. Iron Maiden’s Run To The Hills is a fairly on-point cover of the classic with a little bit of electronic styles buzzing about with splashy drums and instrumental…
Martin Del Carpio – Notes from the Underground CD Review / 2015 Self / 8 Tracks / https://martindelcarpio.bandcamp.com / https://www.facebook.com/martindelcarpiomusic / Kill Your Beauty is the opening composition on Notes from the Underground, the latest work from New York’s Martin Del Carpio. This introductory track creates a musical approximation of the hustle and bustle of a cityscape, with a bold and brash set of instrumentation that gradually gets more chaotic…
Hell Yeah is the latest single by The Fundamentals, and comes forth with a down and dirty rock style. The amount of grit that comes forth with the guitar work, splashy drums, and the snarl of the vocals is unparalleled.
Forgotten Lights is a tender and intricate song from Birds Over Arkansas, a track that touches equally upon the folk, progressive, and singer-songwriting styles. The vocals take listeners on a journey, while on-point drums, guitar, and bass unite to make a fitting backdrop upon which these lyrics can soar. The rich guitar arrangements that are peppered through Forgotten Light are punctuated by splashy and fulfilling drums.
A soulful song that blends together a tremendously infectious bass line with heartfelt and deep vocals, JoeBelle’s Just Say So is an effort that will worm its way deep into the minds and hearts of listeners. The effort from this North Carolina act goes at 100% from beginning to end, touching upon the Detroit sound of the 1970s, Mary J Blige and Angie Stone, and links the resulting effort into…
Confess is the latest effort from Norway’s Ane Monsrud. The track showcases Ane’s ability to set up a harmony with her vocals, something that is further bolstered by the inclusion of thoughtful instrumentation. The track has something for fans of the singer-songwriter, jazz, and classical genres; Monsrud comes forth with tremendous force and finesse during this song.
Los Angeles is a pop-infused track that shines, drawing comparisons to performers like Pink and Kelly Clarkson. There is a massive vocal range captured during this effort, one that is highlighted through intelligent instrumentation. The vocal delivery of Amanda Grace here is dusky, intricate, and ultimately familiar.
