ALBUM: We Are Harlot – ‘We Are Harlot’

March 24, 2015

History repeats, in music especially – The reemergence of nu-metal in recent years for instance. Some bands are so rooted in an older sound that it feels as if the musicians came from a time machine and not the modern music scene. Such is the case with Roadrunner Records’ most recent signing We Are Harlot, […]

Though Nashville, Tennessee is typically known for its country music scene, Sunday March 15th 2015 brought a much different beast to the forefront of musical attention: The Zombie. No, this isn’t an episode of The Walking Dead gone Broadway, but The Devil Wears Prada marking the 5th anniversary of their fan-favorite Zombie EP with a […]

Nostalgia is a universally revered feeling. Depending on when you grew up one song can really take you back to your younger years and make you feel like an old fart. With the current generation there is undoubtedly nostalgia to be gained from listening to early post-hardcore bands, one of those bands being Escape The […]

In the melodic hardcore world, Stick To Your Guns are one of the bands who use their name as a blueprint for their sound. Having developed an especially energetic and passionate subtly punk sound in the early 2000’s the band have forged a path ahead that many of their peers can’t seem to rival. And […]

Duality has been a common theme in the modern rock scene as of late (See: Set It Off’s newest album of the same name). In this day & age where music is more easily accessed in downloadable files than in record stores bands are realizing how crucial making a connection with the fans is.

ALBUM: Fall Out Boy – ‘American Beauty/American Psycho’

January 13, 2015

Upon hearing the triumphant fanfare that begins album opener “Irresistible” for Fall Out Boy’s new record I half-expected an NFL team to come running out of a happenstance arena. Yes, this introduction is THAT grandiose and huge, and why shouldn’t it be? Fall Out Boy are widely known and loved for being a band that […]

ALBUM: Palisades – ‘Mind Games’

January 11, 2015

New Jersey sextet Palisades want to make it known that their live shows can be just as fun on the dance floor as they are in the pit. The ambitious group began to show this quite obviously on their previous full-length ‘Outcasts’ but on the highly-anticipated follow-up ‘Mindgames’ it’s blatant that the musicians that make […]

ALBUM: Attila – Guilty Pleasure

November 24, 2014

Pizza, Sex And Trolls. If you’re reading this you may be asking “What the bloody hell kind of opening statement is that?” Those 3 words grouped together certainly don’t make sense as a statement nor as a potential song title for any normal band. But Attila aren’t a normal band unless the world ‘normal’ is […]
