“Cause when you walk in the room, I know my life’s never gonna be planned.”
The best songs, are the modern love songs. Ballads are the past, and songs like Fyfe Dangerfield’s “When You Walk in the Room” are moving music to give a more powerful, pure happiness, sort ...

The Potentials are a three-piece band from Virginia. On this two-song EP, Benjamin David, Ryan Wagner and Mike Riddile have created a nice little example of what good song-writing can accomplish. These two tunes, Mayday Baby and The Next Attraction are both good, strong dance/electronica ...

I was driving to school and I was sick of listening to the radio so I put in a cd I had burned when I was in highschool and thankfully I did because I completely forgot about Baxter Dury. I love when I rediscover music so I thought I would share this with everyone
Baxter Dury is pretty ...

In downtown Montreal there exists a tiny dance club tucked away on a poorly lit street just to the west of where most of the interesting shit happens in the university district. The club is most famous for hosting a killer (and free) 90’s night on Fridays as well as being called the ...

Most music that is heavily punk influenced can sound very similar. It can be really good but in the end they all have a common sound to them. Electro punk, Post-punk anything punk can get a little boring at times. Yet if there was ever a punk influenced band that could break that stereotype ...

The article I’m responding to can be found here .
First and foremost, Pitchfork is a website with success that I cannot and will not degrade; they have earned every bit of their popularity. My reviews may never amount to anything close to what Pitchfork puts out on a daily basis, but the ...

I am kicking myself for not bringing Minuit to the attention of all AWMusic readers sooner. How I let a review of their third album, Find Me Before I Die A Lonely Death Dot Com, slip by is beyond my comprehension, and no doubt electro-pop fanatics will question my judgement once they feast ...

Since breaking onto the scene in 2000, The Starting Line has relentlessly touted and toured their infectious brand of pop punk around North America, until the announcement of their hiatus, slash, break-up, slash, need to spend some time apart, in 2008. As either a going away present to a ...

We haven’t or at least I haven’t been personally great with promoting local talent and admittedly I’d like to take the time to do so every now and then. Four great local bands, not all from Toronto but from the surrounding areas and are playing a show at The Garrison on ...

For the past decade, it’s been interesting to see the evolution of a band created from one man and his emotions and experiences. This evolution has come at the cost of the happiness of one Jon Crosby, the man behind the moniker “VAST”. In that time the music has taken on a tone of self-hate ...

Before I go into any specifics about the
album, I have a quick disclaimer: If the only
Weezer you will listen to is Pinkerton and The Blue Album , stay far, far away from Raditude . Case in point: Lil’ Wayne contributes a verse on one song. ...

First let me start off by saying that there should be a word limit to album titles, sometimes they get out of hand. There also needs to be some kind of truth in advertising thing as well, I mean, The Hearts We Broke On The Way To The Show sounds a wee bit pretentious doesn’t it, never ...

“I think that possibly maybe I’m falling for you.”
Earlier Landon Pigg was mentioned in a music commercial post. If “Falling in Love at a Coffee Shop,” was played a general consensus would state that the song is from a ring commercial on television, even though Pigg ...

I’m still debating how worthy Animal Collective’ s Merriweather Post Pavilion is (e.g. it probably is top 10 worthy but I still need some more convincing/time with the album). It’s good and I’ve come back to it on occasional but not being that biggest Animal Collective ...

We All Have Hooks For Hands is a band is a South Dakota band signed to Afternoon Records. I was actually interested after listening to a few things as much as it polarized me.
One thing I should point out immediately, Eli Show has one annoying voice. Not that it’s important or anything ...

In part because I thought it’d be fun to have back to back picks of the week with the word ‘Whale’ in the title of the band name, and in part because I’ve been listening to Noah and the Whale’s The First Days of Spring almost exclusively this week, I present ...

I know I am jumping on the bandwagon of Neon Indian reviews a bit late but this ep definitely deserves just a bit more attention. Alan Polamo and Alicia Scardetta were the buzz of the summer and this album doesn’t disappoint. Everyone keeps saying it is reminiscent of the forgotten 80s which ...

Lust In Space is an addicting new addition to Gwar’s ever expanding library of albums. Adding both to their old antics, charm and humor as well as improving their music as a whole, Lust In Space takes their metal into several new galaxies of mind blowing astonishment.

Welcome to the island of misfit ideas. Welcome to a land dominated by the id and the ego. This is Puscifer. Deep within the recesses of Maynard James Keenan’s mind lives a world that just does not fit his other projects. What is Puscifer? The opportune question should be how do you describe ...
