REVIEW : Love and Death - Chemicals EP

Brian "Head" Welch returns with a new band name and just enough music to "whet your whistle" until a full length comes out. With just one new original song, one cover song, and two remixes, Chemicals gives you just the right amount of content for its small asking price.

If you’ve never heard of Stavesacre, I encourage you to check them out and pick up an album or two.… Continued →
