Makeup and Vanity Set – Run

Run by Makeup and Vanity Set We posted about the last Makeup and Vanity Set EP, PRIS, fairly recently but it’s worth pointing out that he’s already released a follow-up that continues to world build on the previous. If you’re a sci-fi fan, the name Pris should ring a bell as a reference to Pris […]

9: Ronnie and Nancy

In Episode Nine, Vidalotry explores Gore Vidal’s humorous criticism of the Reagan administration. Host Ryan Breegle looks at Gore’s initial dismissal of Ronald as a convincing politician, his good-natured jabs at Nancy, and his overall concern that the United States was governed for eight years by a talented cue card reader.

Season One Funale

In the season one finale, POLY bestows the show with a Busby Berkeley worthy theme song to set the stage for diving deep on Hott Minute itself. Before that, Jamie speaks on the benefits of a well-fitting bra or bralette while Ashley stumps for the goodness of the PBS App. Important discussions are had on the hotness of empowerment and the attributes beyond the physical that define “Hott.” Also, plenty of Kit Harrington, Zac Efron, Bo and Luke, John Slattery and Daniel Day Lewis

Pumpkinseed – “Dumbass Day”

Dumbass Day by Pumpkinseed Cookeville’s Pumpkinseed is closing in fast on the release of their third full-length album, Big Believin’ Sky, and have posted two tracks to tease you to the full offering. The latest is “Dumbass Day“, a gently rolling track that builds into a cathartic release with plenty of horns, piano and the […]

Oubliette – The Passage

The six-minute track is a cathartic release of screamed and growled vocals mixed with hammering drums and some pleasantly intricate guitar work. It’s definitely metal but it’s not trying to murder you.

615 Sessions

Brand new in-studio video sessions undertaking featuring Sad Baxter and Leah Blevins. It’s early days for this one but the initial offerings are promising.

Volume 109

Episode 109! In which I use the word “vibes” approximately 10,000 times and compare bands that age me as a host. C’est le vie! Fortunately, the music isn’t aged, it’s all fresh and enjoyable.

Commander Keen – “When David Bowie Passed Away”

When David Bowie Passed Away by Commander Keen With a title like “When David Bowie Passed Away”, you’d think you were in for a forelorn ballad about the passing of the Earth’s finest Starman but Commander Keen‘s latest isn’t about delivering on expectations. This burst of a song – clocking in at 1:15 – is […]

Quichenight – “Woman Tonight” (Official Video)

Quichenight, aka Brett Rosenberg, will be releasing their sixth official full-length album (not counting lost albums, EP’s and mixtapes) Cooler Heads on June 1st, 2018. In lead up to that unveiling, he teamed up with Helen Gilley – of Butthole – to create a wonderfully absurd Ode to the Road, or, rather, an ode to […]

Exotic Doctors – Prescriptions

Jerry Campbell and Ryan Ervin alone have an impressive resume of bands between them including Spider Virus and The Carter Administration, respectively. It’d be unfair to compare this debut record, Prescriptions, with their prior work but it’s nice context to establish that this ain’t their first rodeo in the realm of crafting a song.
