I chose to review this Crumbächer disc, but it should be noted that Escape From the Fallen Planet should be re-mastered and available by the time you read this. I wanted to cover Thunder Beach simply because although it might not be their most popular piece of work, it was the first Christian album that…
Ric Alba released this single track a couple of months ago and it flows perfectly as if he never stopped making music. This could have easily fit on Holes In the Floor of Heaven. It sounds remarkable in its degree of emotion and the depth of what he is trying to communicate. One of the…
Sungrazerr has released three more tracks of sonic brilliance. This little E.P. is titled I Don’t Need A Lot of Love, Just A Steady Supply. The first track up is “They Listen” with a hearty dose of tense and vague wondering as we listen to the fuzzed out communications of what appears to be air…
…“all I ever wanted, was a good job”… If you guys follow Knott or Aunt Bettys on Facebook I’m sure you have heard all about this show… but I’m gonna spill on it one more time. This was the first time that I have ever seen Aunt Bettys live, and actually the only time I…
Marc Byrd and Andrew Thompson’s completely engrossing new disc that I highly recommend everyone to pick up and listen to. This music is best listened to through headphones, and you can honestly put on your headphones, recline back in a chair, turn up the volume and get carried away by the fluidity of the sounds…
The Noir is one of those completely D.I.Y. independent bands that really show how much undiscovered talent is out there. Spencer Smith is the man behind all of the music; he played all cello, guitar, bass, keys, loops, and beats as well as singing all vocals. The music is polished just enough, not overdone and…
This offering by Subdivision records introduces us to the band Sungrazzer with a much welcomed e.p. and not just a single track. Classifying these guys would be hard… ambient guitar fuzz punctuated by sounds from outer space that ebb and flow in a way that somehow really works, and works well. Definitely a unique sound…
Ambience and anticipation lead in on this track with a reverential feel of quiet simplicity. Definitely need to have your headphones on to let the music really surround you and to take in the mood that is being created. The music softly builds through ambience and relaxing guitar tones that slowly peak to a quiet…
“Ba, ba, ba, hey, hey, hey”… This is a new project with Kevin Castillo and Campuzano and a nice addition to the growing roster on Subdivision. The music here is airy and a bit poppier without being pretentious. It would fit great on any college/indie radio rotation play list. Always great to keep up with…
Very little is known about this new project which just adds to the luster and the sincerity. A catchy track of fuzzed out guitars, steady drums, thumping bass and a gorgeous female vocal that is all swirled together in a distorted blur of noisy pop brilliance.
