This is one of those great timeless records that’s good from beginning to end. “Break In Rhyme” opens the Kickstarter funded album with a very reflective piece, echoing the line “So it goes, what we have could be […]

I’m a late comer to this album. Any fan of Jyro Xhan needs to get this. Download only as far as I know, came out in 2007. What you have here is a fuller, slowed down Fold Zandura, add in some Radiohead influenced ambiance, and the droning guitar of “Loveless” era My Bloody Valentine, and it’s [...]

A must have for all Galactic Cowboys fans. A very focused and solid release start to finish. A concept record about losers, love, loss, and rock n’ roll. Some of the heaviest riffs Monty Colvin has written as well as some of the most melodic catchy chorus’s you’ve heard in years – just try to not [...]

This latest release from Mike Peters and Co. features rerecorded versions of “Unbreak The Promise” (an out take from Declaration, the original was released on the remastered expanded edition of the album), “Howling Wind” ( Declaration), “Only The Thunder” ( Strength), “Shelter” ( Eye Of The Hurricane ), “The Rock” and “How The Mighty Fall” (…[Read more]

Finally these guys nail it! I’ve liked this band since 2007′s Knuckles Up. Celtic/Street Punk with a little Oi! in the same vein as bands like Dropkick Murphy’s and Flogging Molly without sounding like them. High energy, anthem filled, and tough. This has been in my top ten of 2010 since its release in March. Produced [...]

This album is far better than their debut (2007′s Shot In The Dark). Former Migrains (and current Grave Robber) vocalist Shawn Browning is an amazing singer, in that he sounds nothing like he does in his other projects. Cliffy (former Stivs/original Huntington) really pulled this project together nicely. Producer Tim Bushong (Bride, Grave Robber)…[Read more]

It took me a while to come around to checking this out. A ton of mixed reviews by Indie Rock Snobs and disgruntled Post Hard Core fans battling it out online. Me being neither just wasn’t in the mood for either musical affair. I love this band, the one and only time I saw them I [...]

Dallas Taylor, former Underoath (was never much a fan) vocalist formed Maylene & The Sons Of Disaster in 2004 and released I in 2005. II followed in 2007, both stellar albums. Dallas is back with a new Maylene album and a new band line up (Taylor is the only returning member). III goes with the progression of the previous [...]

Remember Blaster The Rocket Man (Boy)? Hands down one of the Punkest things to hit the Christian market since Scaterd Few! Vocalist DanielPeterson (Aka Oto Bott) has another band that is just as amazing! This band is the real deal, that controlled chaos that makes real Punk Rock so wonderful. Fans of such creative genius such [...]

I am a huge fan of Horror Punk! The Misfits are easily in my top 20 all time greatest bands list, with both Danzig and Michale Graves on vocals, I like ‘em both the same. I find it to be one of the last true Punk Rock Scenes out there, very DIY, core fans, small venues, [...]

I can’t say enough about this band, they’ve changed my life. It was what my musical appetite was craving at the time I bought it and it satisfied like a piece of chocolate after a meal. It’s first and foremost rock, it’s Americana, it’s punk, it’s spiritual, it’s folk, it’s lyrical, it’s raw, and passionate. Not [...]

Bride’s last album, and what an album it is! It pulls sounds from throughout the history of the band creating a new sound. It’s one of the most dynamic and raw albums these veterans of rock have released, a very live feel to this album, but there is a lot of great studio moments all over [...]

I saw these guys at the first TomFest and they blew me away! I got to hang out with them, we talked a lot about the Ramones, in fact I saw the Ramones in San Francisco the same night I started my drive to Tomfest! I’ve seen and heard many bands in what’s been dubbed “Ramones-core” [...]

The Gig in Diamond Bar, Ca The Crucified , first show since 1995, and a testimony of Faith from Sonny of P.O.D. Free Show!!!! Sonny, looking as stoked and amazed as I was, introduces with a “I can’t believe it….The Crucified!”. The band kicks off with the intro to “Hateworld”, Mark Salomon takes the stage, looks at the [...]
