Reptiel \"Tunnel to Tomorrow\" starts with a classic rock-ish riff before exploding into a harmony drenched alternative rock, poppy jam. The Beatles are an audible influence, but the band is modern, blending 90\'s alte ...

Crinkle Face This Boston band is undefinable - old and new, familiar and strange, melodic and dissonant. Strange timing changes with obscure lyrics, honest singing - something like an emo Nirvana. \"Post-rock\" is how they ...

Various Blonde and a Dark Alley Every song you hear, you try to place it somewhere in life. You either give it an emotion, you tag it along to a memory or you imagine it in a movie. When I heard Various Blondes Blind Samurai, I could only env ...

Auto Defiance Melodic Pop, with a modern feel. I love that the vocalist doesn\'t \"try to hard\", yet sits comfortably in his high range in a cool, easy tone. The end of \"Heart Attack\" also showcases his smooth falsetto re ...

Triggers & Slips Keep It Country Looking at me, you would not know what I was into. You might jump to conclusions and say I was into hip hop or R&B. You would not be wrong. I like the occasional song I hear in the top 40 sphere, but those are ...

Approaching Dawn Make Music into Metal Middle school seems like so long ago, but I remember it like it was just yesterday. The boy of my dreams was in love with bands like Black Sabbath and Metallica. I on the hand was standing proud with my Backstr ...

Ismonic Riffs It Up There are few bands out today that are able to capture what was great about the decades that came before them. Ismonic is one of those bands. Their rock is like that of a 90s alternative band, but they are stil ...
