ALBUM REVIEW: ‘Chemical Daydream’ by The Alchemy
As regularly as it can feel that the deck is stacked against Britrock, it’s never predetermined to fail. Sure, when bands come around that are blatant emulating sounds that have […]
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘The Valley’ by Whitechapel
Whitechapel’s lose-lose situation that they’ve been stuck in recently is one that’s been well-documented. Deathcore as a genre could do much if it wasn’t for the constant threat of fan […]
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?’ by Billie Eilish
While the discourse surrounding rock’s relationship with pop has been exclusively fixated on the former sliding into the latter, it’s definitely worth discussing how it works from the other way […]
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘Periphery IV: HAIL STAN’ by Periphery
As much as the tech-metal horse has been beaten to a bloody pulp at this point, Periphery will always be one of the acts that are more than worth the […]
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘What’s Past Is Prologue’ by Free Throw
Free Throw’s Bear Your Mind was a great album, taking the sort of emo that had hit one hell of a stride in 2017 and proceeding to do it better […]
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘Trauma’ by I Prevail
It’s not a controversial statement in the slightest to say that I Prevail never deserved to get as big as they did. They’ve already been rinsed plenty for their awful […]
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘Nest’ by Brutus
It’s quite frankly amazing that Brutus have been given the sort of push they have. Even now when attitudes towards experimentation in music are far more welcoming that they were […]
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘You Are OK’ by The Maine
In the current climate of pop-rock where flightiness and fragmentation seems to be running rampant, The Maine are virtually untouchable. They may have started as another faceless pop-rock band when […]
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘Panorama’ by La Dispute
The most appropriate term that can be used to describe La Dispute is a phenomenon, in that their mere existence truly defies explanation. After all, this is a band who’ve […]
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘American Football’ (LP3) by American Football
It feels strange to have new music from American Football. Keep in mind that their last album, 2016’s second self-titled effort, came after a seventeen-year-long gap, so to see that […]
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘Silver Tongues’ by Crows
It’s been hard to avoid the resurgence of post-punk lately, not just in the near-constant rollout of new bands taking hold of the sound, but in the way that, in […]
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘Sittin’ In A Tree’ by Jaret & Kelly
It’s hard not to question whether all of Jaret Reddick’s music in the past has been entirely worth it. It’s hard to argue with Bowling For Soup and how they’ve […]
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘INFINITY’ by Scarlxrd
The idea of music being cyclical isn’t a new notion, but it’s one that feels all the more pertinent given the recent surge of hip-hop artist into the rock space. […]
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘Pretty Buff’ by Angel Du$t
On paper, Angel Du$t seems like too good of a project to pass up. For one, it’s a band consisting of members of Turnstile and Trapped Under Ice, two acts […]
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘Only Things We Love’ by Blaqk Audio
Historically, it’s always seemed to be difficult for Blaqk Audio to get their foot in the door. Even with the star power of AFI’s Davey Havok and Jade Puget serving […]
ALBUM REVIEW: ‘Blue Blood’ by Idiot Pilot
It’s kind of strange to have Idiot Pilot back. It’s not like they made an enormous splash over a decade ago – they’ve always been a relatively underground proposition – […]
