All Them Witches – Live When you’re known for having a big, immersive, wall-of-sound, ear bleeding style rock show, it behooves you to release some live renditions of your songs to remind people what they’re missing if they’re not coming to see you. All Them Witches took it one step further and just released fifteen […]
This may be old news by now but Honey Locust has a live 7" available on Wild Kindness Records. The b-side is “Always On My Way” and by simply purchasing the vinyl you get an entire digital EP of goods. Sounds like a damn fine deal to me.
Apparently C.N.i Cow have been making music since the mid-90s but I’m just now stumbling upon their surf rock offerings. It does it a disservice to say that it is exactly what you’d expect when you think of song titles like “Gidget and The Rogue Wave.” It’s upbeat, it’s dance-y and it’s probably the exact […]
Some lovely bedroom electronic knob twiddling to get you through the week. The band name mixed with that album title create a nice atmosphere for the tone of the record – augmented by a note from the author: listen to this album in the cracks of the day when you have time to yourself to […]
palaverrecords: Now THAT’s how you get all the boys to come to the yard. Henry Killian, The By Gods, Brief Lives and Hurts to Laugh at Palaver Thursday. Rock n Roll is alive and well in Nashville, TN.
Pretty sure this band has my number down pat – big riff rock tucked inside psychedelic, shoegaze-y, space rock. Â
The newest EP from NORM goes into some new territory – fully embracing the dance floor style anthems that he’s hinted at in the past. I’m still absorbing it but it’s a fresh style injection that I’m enjoying. The remainder of the EP isn’t quite as energetic but you gotta come down after such a […]
I don’t post near enough hip-hop on the site. Despite that, this track by Rakso is inspired by MF Doom and is a solid listen. As with most hip-hop beats there’s not a ton of deviation but that’s part of the zoning out allure…
The second full-length album from Evan P Donohue has been out for awhile now and I’ve been soaking in its offerings to form a properly articulated take on it. It’s been a full four years since any significant output from Donohue and his growth as an artist is quite evident from the instant you dive […]
Make-out with Violence-  How I Became the Bomb B-sides If you’ve been paying attention to local happenings over the last however many years, you are likely familiar with the movie – MAKE-OUT with VIOLENCE. A Hendersonville undertaking that spawned The Non-Commissioned Officers and one of the best soundtracks for a movie – period. Part of […]
When you have the level of output that Hands Down Eugene / Matt Moody has, it’s entirely possible that some creations are going to slip through the cracks and be unearthed at a later time. Such is the case with the freshly released Tascam 388 Tapes – recordings lost from a previous 2011 session. The […]
Maybe this is being presumptuous but I never got the feeling that Gay Vibes was an undertaking that took itself too seriously. The latest release labels itself as: An abstract collection of deconstructed moments, inspirations and reflections on Taylor Swift’s 1989 Is there any truth to this or is it just an excuse to make […]
