REVIEW : Papertowns. - Passion/Aggression
The bottom line is that Papertowns. is a young band with a massive amount of talent. If they are able to accomplish this much in just a few songs, their debut full length record should get them places.

REVIEW : Shook Like Dead Men - The 5 Solas EP
Shook Like Dead Men have made massive steps ahead of their last effort. They have clearly matured and have even thrown some curve balls into their sound.

REVIEW : Ace Augustine - The Sick and Suffering
Ace Augustine have overcome all odds to release another full length record and I truly commend them for that. If they are able to keep this lineup and really begin to gel and flesh out their sound, I believe they could begin to make waves in the music scene.
