Be Here Now: Snapshot Reviews Of New Album Releases, May 6th, 2014

We’ve been waiting for something to get excited about this week and here it is: Emili Sande’s producer with a handful of excellent soul dance UK syle. The Ella Eyre song is terrific, the (six) Emili tracks all fine, Ed Sheeran over emotes but what can you expect? Hey, there’s Professor Green! And altogether this feels like a state of the art superstar UK soul album – ALBUM OF THE WEEK – A-

CT's Fauxchella, Saturday May 3rd, 2014

The only bummer of the show is the fact that the staff was a bit out of control, pulling people out of the “pit” left and right. It was disappointing and totally not justified because no one was getting hurt, but I guess they’d never dealt with an event of this magnatude before

The 1975 "Robbers" Video Reviewed

I love them, and was hoping they’d make a video for this tune. Matthew’s voice really gets to shine because it’s a slower song and he croons a bit and shows off just how well he can sing. “Now if you never shoot, you’ll never know and if you never eat, you’ll never grow,” he sings.

Omnes Deteriores Sumus Licentia: Too Much Freedom Debases Us

I don’t listen to will.i.am, Flo Rida or the gamut of YouTubers, rappers and trendsetting, dark lipstick-wearing, side-of-head-shaving, abusive-relationship-returning, butt-implanting, Barbie-doll/robot-idiosyncrasy-whining, spending, debasing, shaming, misplaced-popular-influence-pissing pseudo-performing pop stars

Two Humans "Institute of Living" Album Reviewed

ason’s voice is better than ever, strong and passionate, and he’s forever one of my favorite vocalists. When it shifts from a slow ballad to an upbeat fast paced punk tune, it’s impossible to not get up and dance. It’s amazing to me how these three guys can create such a massive sound

fun. "Point and Light" Reviewed

“Benson Hedges” is gorgeous. It’s way better than the one on the album and I could barely contain myself when I heard it. I instantly fangirled and wanted to dance around. It’s so well done and stunning and the harmonies are a hundred times better like this.

Conor Oberst Live At Gigstock Reviewed

It’s gorgeous and heartfelt, a slow ballad that’s heartbreaking and proves that the man still knows exactly how to play a song so that it tugs at your heartstrings. His guitar skills are phenomenal, and he seems to be more charismatic in his performance than usual.

Why Kurt Cobain Sucks

I have no idea what the hype is; I never liked Nirvana and always thought Cobain was kinda twat. Going as far as to google, “why do people like Kurt Cobain”, it still blows my mind. I mean, all you really know to determine the fact that he was a moron was that he stated stated that the Sex Pistols were “one million times more important than the Clash”

5 Years In: I'm 17 And Cooler Than You

Obviously there’s some draw to kids my age, because we’re the target demographic of a lot of bands, but I am consistently flattered whenever there’s a band that wants to sit down and talk to me. I’m not exactly sure what I did to get so lucky, but I couldn’t have done everything I have without Rock NYC.

Bayside Tells The Whitest Lie

It’s definitely more likely that this is all a hoax, and if you watch the video of the announcement, they’re all pretty stoic and emotionless, and it kind of just feels like a big joke. There’s no way that this isn’t just them messing with us.

The story behind the band name, because it’s strange, is that he likes Calvin and Hobbes, and it was the last comic they’d ever done. I thought that was really sweet, and that had finally put an end to my wondering.

Seahaven "Love to Burn" Reviewed

There’s so many different components to this song, making it a song that keeps you on the edge of your seat. The guitars are powerful and when the tune picks up instrumentally, there’s some strings in there that gives this a feel that no other Seahaven song has.

Sting And Simon At MSG: A Second Opinion

The pairing of Sting and Simon is less questionable and I understand the intention behind the experiment of the music and combined talent. Sting, while more fit and ten years Garfunkel’s junior, is Simon’s other half … for about a third of the show.

Modern Baseball "Your Graduation" Video Reviewed

It’s powerful and once it hits the chorus, there’s an impactful bumping up of energy, making this single rise to the top of the list of songs I want to see performed live. It has a good group-vocal feel, which is necessary for pretty much any pop punk song.

Perfect Pussy Sells Vinyl Infused With Singer's Blood

WHERE she even got the blood from?! Did she collect it over a period of time? Did she collect drops from paper cuts and scratches? It’s disturbing and repulsive. (Upon further reading…not for the faint of heart…it was in fact her menstrual blood. What..The..Actual..F…?)
