Album Review: Faber Drive – Can’t Keep a Secret
Taking an intricate look at a band in the leagues of Faber Drive requires a little more effort than most contemporary rock bands on the market. I mean sure they pretty much sound like any other current up and coming artist who can perfect modern production [...]

Passion Pit “Manners” Review
Even if the rock kids aren’t doing the standing still as much these days, indie-friendly electro-pop bands are still liable to have their own backs against the wall– Hot Chip with their Urkel affectations, Junior Boys’ overriding permafrost, Cut Copy and their unflappable cool.

Corinne Bailey Rae - The Sea (Review)
When Corinne Bailey Rae crossed the Atlantic in 2006 following one of the last blitzkreig major label promotions, she arrived to a very welcoming US audience. Already a hit in the UK for her languid pop/folk sound, she was the perfect new star for 20- and 30-something year old [...]

Recently divorced and having taken a substantial break from the studio, Mr. E and his talented backing band’s latest offering End Times is a glance into the soul of a singer going through emotional turmoil. Eels could never be accused of being overly chirpy, but in End Times they dive headlong [...]

Alesana - The Emptiness Review
On the surface of things Alesana are just another one of those irritatingly popular American screamo bands. The kind of group that relies too heavily on a bloke screaming like a dying crow during the chorus and with midsections designed for synchronised headbanging and faux instrument throwing when playing live. But, [...]

OK Go - ‘Blue Colour of the Sky’ Review
OK Go have been scratching at the walls of stardom for the better part of a decade. The band’s welcoming brand of power pop ought to have seen them join Weezer, Teenage Fanclub and The Postal Service in blaring out across college campuses the world over. But [...]
