I wasn’t sure what I was going to hear when I started listening to this album. The cover and song titles gave me the impression that this would be a goth album. But it came in too close to deadline to get it sent to our resident goth expert Steve. The first few seconds sounds…
This album is a bit different than the other albums reviewed this issue. I first heard of Professor Small through their mp3.com page back in the late 1990s. They play electronic music, but don’t think techno or Joy Electric. Think original music with melody, humor, and originality that just happens to be created electronically. Technically,…
Everything by The Crucified, all in one spot. What more do you need to know? The early KGB demos are here, cleaned up and sounding pretty good. The Nailed and Take Up Your Cross demos are also here, just as they have been released before. Also added in are the Live at the New Order…
The former kings of the mp3.com Industrial metal charts are back. Jagged Doctrine returns after a long “hiatus” to deliver more of their aggressive industrial metal hybrid music. The Stalker tells the story of Kale: “Kale is torn between his loyalty to the Servants and his new friendship with Jessica. The lines are draw, a…
Jason Martin keeps the ever-evolving entity that is SF59 rolling through another album. This time, Martin goes for a more acoustic and organic sound while still keeping many elements that sound like his last few albums. But there are also a few new twists thrown in. Like the sound of tablas that starts off the…
Dreamy, Noisy, even shoe-gazer-ish at times, Crossroads of America Records recording act husband&wife return with a new album that reminds me why I like music.

Take roots rock, Americana, jangle pop, country and folk… mix together well, throw in a dash of nostalgia, and you have The Redemption Center: a band that is another in a long line of fine bands that Jesse Sprinkle has been involved in. The Redemption Center features the vocals of J. Stephen Smith as well…
I really didn’t need to buy this album to review it. Not because I illegally downloaded it or anything, but because I am a big fan of this band and I already owned every song on here. Ghosts of the Past is basically a compilation of the Ghosts of the Future vinyl box set, a…
I found this single through the Starflyer 59 Fans website. Probably a great place to list it – SF59 is a clear influence on the band’s sound. Or is it a solo project? Info is hard to come by at this point. The style is listed as Christian Indie Rock, and I would say that…
As far as we are told, these are preview songs for a new album. So they may change or not even make the cut. But for now you can listen to these songs at Wish For Eden’s Facebook page. If this is a sign of what is to come, I look forward to the new…
