And so as a follow-up, this article will discuss his album Up to Something. The benefit of this is two-fold. First, it’s a [...]
Tracy Thorne – I Am That [Album]
I was not exaggerating when I raved about the Vagabond Cafe. It attracts performers of the highest caliber. Recently, I had the pleasure of meeting Tracy Thorne at an open mic there. Though I had the misfortune of having to follow her act (her’s was incredible. Mine, not so much), it was a pleasant evening [...]
Chill Bump – The Loop [Album]

It’s a shame, really. Their latest release, The Loop, released as a pay-what-you-will on Bandcamp, is tight with wit and singularity, charming in content, [...]

Recap: The Weeknd
Abel Tesfaye: the apparition; the gloomy and macabre coming of age story that began to unfold across the blogosphere on March 21st, 2011; the 22-year-old godless spirit that hails from the north (that’s Canada for our overseas readers); but, most importantly, The Weeknd, a game-changing, candid R&B singer with a personality and aesthetic that could [...]
Aer – The Bright Side [Album]
Shortly after releasing the singles, “Floats My Boat” and “Like The Way,” Massachusetts’ very own Aer, dropped their much-anticipated album The Bright Side.

Staff Thoughts: Passion Pit – Gossamer [Album]
Many of our writers share similar taste in music. Because of this, there is sometimes a desire expressed by multiple writers to cover the same piece. And just as friends disagree over the quality of new music, so too does our staff. Staff Thoughts is a feature designed to accommodate these differences, and present a [...]

Reptar – Body Faucet [Album]
A couple months back I wrote an article about a song called “Orifice Origami.” After concluding the article, I couldn’t wait to hear what else Reptar was prepared to deliver. Well, the time has come, and Body Faucet has been released. The album starts off with one of the singles, “Sebastian.” This song has been a personal favorite of mine since [...]
