Viva Voce: Enduring Harmonies with conductor Nathan Zullinger Release a Beautiful and Historical record
A gorgeous and enticing new release from Viva Voce conductor Nathan Zullinger provides an incredibly warm tonality as the release is almost fully acapella and the way that they put themselves out there is just amazing. At times, throughout the release, vocals feel angelic, like a choir of angels singing from above. Other times, you have a deeper sound to the tone of the songs as both male and female vocals take place and have such a unique way of complimenting each other thro

Arianna Kant Returns With A New Direction
A new single from Arianna Kant delivers a massive and orchestrated rock soundscape that borders on a dream-rock approach and feels cinematic, vast and it's undertone, and very driving. "The Storm Is In A Cup" is quite a wonderfully woven single and does bear as much color and soul as it does edginess. The guitar tones on this track are stellar. They have the drive, the impact, and they give the song that sort of harder alternative rock style, while synthesized string sections

Dead Lights Deliver A New Single That Crosses Genres and Breeds A Catchy But Gritty Sound
The new single release from Dead Lights delivers a really cool crossover kind of sound that breeds a cinematic underbelly and takes elements of post-punk, electropop, alternative pop, and more, putting them all together to create this atmosphere that's got an amazingly vast undertone yet never leaves that pop sensibility behind. "(The Edge of) Dusk" comes through with a great groove, to be honest. The beat is deep-pocketed and adds a great drive to the track, while the rest o

An Album from Greg Roensch
There’s a certain kind of place that only really exists in memory, where the lights are dim, the conversations blur together, and the jukebox feels like it knows you better than your friends do. When I think about Down at the Polystereophonic Dive Bar , I picture one of those rooms, the kind I used to drift into without much of a plan and leave with something I didn’t expect. Greg Roensch builds his album around that same idea, not just as a setting, but as a mood that holds

Fake Mannequin is a fairly new project in terms of releases, but what they have out so far is really quite breathtaking, especially because the songs have a wonderfully swelling sensation to them, and the deepening sense of soundscape is something that grabs at you, wraps its arms around you, and keeps you right where it wants to.

A New Pop-Punk Single from yellow N0.5 Hits Just Right
If you guys haven't heard the latest single from Yellow No. 5, then this is definitely your reason to go check it out. The track is one of the better love and breakup songs that I've heard in quite some time, and it's because the song really isn't coming from an angry place after a breakup. It's got a different perspective and focuses more on moving on or sort of getting closure after it's all over. It's not a happy song, per se. But it definitely isn't the usual breakup Song

MegaDestroyer Turn Hard-Won Experience Into “STEAM”
Many heavy rock bands write from anger, frustration, or pure release. MegaDestroyer does something a little less expected on “STEAM.” This song still has the push, volume, and sweep you want from a big modern rock track, but underneath it is a real fascination with learning, and the idea that curiosity can pull a person out of a dark place. That’s what gives “STEAM” its own shape. It isn’t posturing as some galaxy-brained concept piece, and it isn’t burying itself in melodram

A new album release from Mark Branscombe brings out a wonderful blend of completely warm and welcoming tonality coming from the guitars and vocals. The album comes forth in the form of a blend of what I consider to be Americana, folk rock, and blues. This is a very rootsy feeling record and a lot of the songs send messages, what others tell stories. Either way, you're getting a lot to chew on, and a lot of these tracks make you think.

One Voice by Don’t Blink is an album that resists quick categorization, a nine song set that treats style as a moving target rather than a fixed point.

I found myself drawn to the instrumental details first, the small gestures tucked into the margins that reve

Madzilla LV Confront the Cost of Being Good on “Angel Genocide”
Heavy music has always been good at expressing rage. What it doesn’t always do well is interrogate why that rage exists. With their new single and video “Angel Genocide,” Madzilla LV turns their attention toward a quieter, more unsettling truth: that goodness itself is often punished. Rather than framing anger as rebellion or strength, Angel Genocide looks at vulnerability — the experience of being too generous, too trusting, too willing to help — and how easily those traits
