Gaffer Project's first full-length is a promising emotional hardcore release that touches on elements of Attalus, Hotel Books, and Rival Choir but ultimately feels disjointed musically.

It has been years since A Hope for Home served us an album. I remember when “In Abstraction” dropped my freshman year of college. I got the email my preorder had shipped and it was the highlight of the week. Of course, that’s quickly approaching six years ago now. I’ve had plenty of time to listen to their discography and have actually found it to be their weakest album; on the same token, “Realis” is quite possibly one of my favorite albums ever and “The Everlasting Man”, despite its stylistic consistency, is also a pretty great album.… Continued →

Cool Hand Luke emerges from the dead with an amazing blend of alternative, ambient, and indie that may serve as their strongest album to date.

I’ll open this review with two bits of information: I find Nirvana severely overrated and annoying and I find The Chariot to be largely overlooked and incredibly innovative. 68′, the brainchild of ex-The Chariot vocalist Josh Scogin, falls stylistically between the two. “In Humor and Sadness” saw release in 2014. Now, the duo returns to the fray with “Two Parts Viper” – but does it live up to expectations? Eventually We All Win opens with some sort of strange percussion and filtered vocals akin to, and I’ll probably get some level of flack for saying this, Arctic Monkeys.… Continued →

The new album, Weird World, is slated for release on 6/24, but you can check out three songs below in preparation for the release. Here’s an official press statement: Weird World is the second full-length album from Stemson, combining a mix of tight/catchy synth lines/driving rhythms while being carried by vocals that are both dry/honest and loud/sarcastic.  Weird world visits elements of the 80’s/90’s/00’s and modern pop while maintaining a life of its own.
