Jam-packed with rock tunes and pure awesomeness, The Mary Jane quite frankly has everything in “RELIVE”: instruments arranged to perfection, in-depth lyrics with soulful or guttural vocals to match, and a wide selection that screams alternative rock. In other words, audiences are in for a treat if they dig this genre. Opening track “Casablanca” brings

There’s something about Marcus: The Apex Predator!’s EP that’s nostalgic, maybe how their guitars sound, or how they play their tunes overall, but they still manage to capture the fun vibe of indie rock throughout all five tracks of “Newborn Fossil”.

One for Georgie immediately starts with an upscale, upbeat tune that will sweep you off your feet – it only keeps this vibe up, gradually getting better as the song progresses. The man called ‘Georgie’ in the song (“Georgie, Georgie, where are you?”) refers to George Best, the late Manchester United legend. As such, this

Telekinetic by Twice Dark is a record so drenched in sorrowful grandeur that any artist might have to pause and take a deep breath just to fully enjoy the project. This isn’t just some synth-laden gothpop confection designed for casual toe-tapping. No, Telekinetic is pure gothic rock: cavernous guitars, deep basslines that crawl under your
