Interview: Between the Buried and Me Drummer Blake Richardson
Between the Buried and Me was one of the first heavy bands I started listening to. My brother often was the one to show me new music growing up, so I was constantly getting an influx of different bands. I first got into these guys in 2007 when they where just getting ready […]

Celine Neon – Kitty
You might remember one of my earlier posts about Celine Neon’s self-titled album that came out earlier this year.

Maserati – Rehumanizer

Ex-Breathers – Past Tense
Chances are if you frequent NPR.org or Spin Magazine you’ve likely heard of Ex-Breathers within the last couple months. I was lucky enough to spend a good chunk of my formative years in their hometown, Tallahassee, FL, and got to see them grow from some of their earlier projects. The guys have been in about 100 […]
