Love Moon – Clouded Bliss

Grab your record player, put on your dad’s old Black Sabbath t-shirt and take a seat. Love Moon’s new album Clouded Bliss will bring you back to the good ol’ days: colliding ’70s metal with ’90s punk, bringing a West Coast power house band. Originating in Indianapolis, now residing in Oakland, CA, Love Moon is a […]

Comus – First Utterance

Allow myself to repeat myself. It’s nearing Halloween and maybe, the second time will be better than the first? Let’s ruminate a bit on October. Isn’t there something strangely dark and alluring about this month? In nature, we look forward to trees changing colors while the heat from the summer subsides to cool our muggy air. We look forward […]

The Smashing Pumpkins – Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness

I remember the excitement that I felt after hearing “Bullet With Butterfly Wings” for the first time while in middle school. This unbelievable music video beamed onto the glass tube of my TV and I had never heard or seen anything else like it. My first thought was that I just had to get the […]

Midlake – The Trials of Van Occupanther

I couldn’t wait to write about Midlake’s The Trials of Van Occupanther this month because the absolute perfect time to listen to this album is right now. The days have shrunk and gone dark, life is being drained from the trees as we know it and a chill is creeping in, a harbinger of a […]

Birds in Row – You, Me & The Violence

I was lucky enough to catch these guys the last time they were in the US, with The Chariot on their farewell tour, and they quickly have become one of my favorite bands. They are intense, passionate, honest, and have yet to disappoint with any of their releases. You, Me & The Violence is no exception. Birds […]

Dilly Dally – Sore

It was pretty hard to choose just one album/band to cover this month. There’s so much happening right now in music, it’s kind of hard to keep me listening to one thing. My nostalgia went into overdrive when I heard that Blues Traveler came out with a new album in the spring. Then the internet […]

Earth – Primitive and Deadly

While Black Sabbath may have left the name Earth in the dust, Olympia Washington’s Dylan Carlson dug it up and erected something totally new out of it. Though near-constant lineup changes, drug problems, jail time and long hiatuses plagued the band, Earth is still going strong after 26 years. Starting in the late ’80s, Earth […]

Threading – You Are Never Enough

Where do I begin? This is one of my favorite bands. I’ve been jamming their music ever since my band played a show with them near their hometown of Kalamazoo, MI. I didn’t know them at all at the time so I wasn’t sure what to expect. But when I saw them setting up the […]

Chelsea Wolfe – Abyss

Synth-heavy bass chords, each ending abruptly and eerily, open Chelsea Wolfe’s 2015 album Abyss. You’d almost think you were listening to some resurfaced soundtrack for 1997’s cult sci-fi epic Event Horizon if it weren’t for the eventual build-up of industrial doom metal and Wolfe’s haunting voice crooning like some kind of space siren. Maybe this […]
