Love Ire & Song: An Ode to Frank Turner’s Coming Of Age

Daniel Carlson·April 13, 2018

Concerning Love Ire & Song’s ten year marker quickly passing by, Frank Turner’s evolution of a punk turned poet-laureate is a moment captured in history where the manifestation hadn’t quite set in, but was soon becoming.

Album Review: Underoath – Erase Me | Its Dangerous Business Leaving Your Old Sound

Jeremy Erickson·April 7, 2018

Bottom line: Erase Me is not an Underoath record. Same band name, because that is what everyone knows them as, but if I am being honest, this sounds a lot more like the second Sleepwave record. Screamo is officially dead, and Underoath get that. But, I just cannot get into this.

Wye Oak: The Louder I Call, The Faster It Runs | Embracing the Future while Barely Looking Back

Kevin Krein·March 29, 2018

The Louder I Call, The Faster It Runs is not a defining artistic statement for Wye Oak. Arguably that is the make or break desperation and immediacy of Civilian; however, this time around, it finds Jenn Wasner and Andy Stack growing more comfortable into the sonic palate they’ve found themselves in.

David Byrne: American Utopia | A Fearless American Dream

Eddie Carter·March 22, 2018

American Utopia is quite possibly the bravest album of David Byrne's career. The main reason is because it is fearless. I'm not even the biggest Talking Heads fan. I'm a writing this as a fan of American Utopia, this is the American dream I can agree with.

Jimi Hendrix: Both Sides of the Sky | More Dirt than Paydirt

Roz Milner·March 21, 2018

The new Jimi Hendrix collection Both Sides of the Sky is yet another look into where his music was headed circa 1970. With tracks featuring Johnny Winter, Stephen Stills and Buddy Miles it sounds exciting, but as B.G.M.'s M Milner writes, it promises more than it delivers.

Stone Temple Pilots: The Art Of Letting Go Is A Hard Learned Lesson

Aaron Cooper·March 16, 2018

It's tragic when line-up drama haunts a decent band, much less when two frontmen are no longer among the living. Stone Temple Pilots return with a new album, but can't seem to let go of the past.
