Track Review

With technology being at its peak, it’s fair to say that we don’t have an excuse anymore with song production. Anyone, as long as they have the will to learn, can become a great producer. The downside of that is that we tend to over-produce everything. Scott’s Tees‘ newest track, ‘We Move As Fast As […]

In a world where complicated riffs, over-the-top production values are at their highest peak, La Need Machine decided to take us back to the days of just pure rawness and grit in music. Join me as I discuss their newest track, ‘Rock and Roll Show,’ and understand why this is a great reminder to slow

There are two types of rock your father plays at the backyard on a Sunday: one that will make you say, “I hope he never plays it again,” and the one that will make you sing along before you even know the lyrics. The newest cover single from Dirt Preachers Union “Flowers” lands on the

Some songs are bangers, while some speak truth. But For I The Badger delivers both, and they’re not here to be polite. With “All Hail”, they drag forty years of political lies and betrayal through a raw fusion of punk, funk, and soul. For I The Badger is a Lincoln-based band with Stuart Whelan on

For today’s rare cuts, Pentrilox steps in with Wasteland Whispers, a cathartic single to confront your demons and emerge with a strength that is earned and

At this point, it’s hard to tell whether Robert Allen, a.k.a. DownTown Mystic, is making rock music or conducting a long-running experiment to prove that sincerity never actually went out of style. His new track, “Somebody’s Always Doin’ Something 2 Somebody,” feels like the sound of someone who still believes guitars can tell the truth,

“Don’t Fall” is the sound of a band refusing to rush what actually matters. For a trio that only meets once or twice a month in Chesham, Loudness Wars sound like they’ve been trapped in a rehearsal room for decades, slowly distilling every idea until it becomes something sharp enough to leave a mark. Their

Every now and then, a song comes along that feels like it’s been sitting in the corner of your brain, waiting for someone to write it. HorthWorld’s latest single, “Fumes,” is that kind of track; a rush of adrenaline disguised as a love song, built for the moments when affection and exhaustion start to blur
