I’m not sure how this track came about. I only heard about it because Polly Scattergood was kind enough to send me a message on Twitter with the link. As you know, Polly is one of my favorite artists, and I’ve interviewed her twice for this site, so I immediately fell in love with this.…

On April 7th The Maine will release their album Lovely Little Lonely. This time they’re going the independent route and who can really blame them? It’s not like they need a record label to support them when this super catchy song has already racked up half a million streams on Spotify since it was released…

Late last week I self-published my debut novel, Reckoning Daze, under my pen name Michael Beaulieu. It’s only available as an e-book right now, but I hope to make it available as a lovely paperback soon. In the meantime, you can grab the e-book for free from several different sources. The easiest thing to do…

“Don’t Kill My Vibe” is the super cool debut single by 20 year old Norwegian artist Sigrid. It’s a feeling we can all relate to so it should come as no surprise that it makes for a great pop song. I’ll admit it took me a few listens for me to fall head over heels…

interview by Michael McCarthy Last week I brought you part one of my interview with Chris McLelland of the popular post-hardcore/pop punk outfit Nominee, which focused on something we have in common: bipolar disorder. Today we have part two, which focuses on the band’s music, tour plans and a few of our famous random questions.…

If you like Fall Out Boy, I think you’d love Pierce the Veil’s new album, Misadventures, which finds them in more of a pop rock vein than usual. “Floral & Fading,” their latest single/video, is a perfect example of this. While the lyrics are pretty deep — check them out on Youtube — the song…

interview by Michael McCarthy I was recently introduced to the powerful music Nominee, who are either a punk or post hardcore band, depending on who you ask. To my ears, there’s even an air of pop punk about their songs, which are as catchy as they are heavy. Aside from the music kicking ass, the…

Two of our favorite bands, co-headlining! We couldn’t be more excited about this. If ever there were two bands that needed to tour together it’s Blondie and Garbage. Because, let’s face it, there would be no Garbage if Blondie hadn’t paved the way for them. It’s no secret that Blondie’s Debbie Harry has been a…

Last October I had the pleasure of interviewing James Hinton, who goes by the name The Range. He’s just released a 360 degree, virtual reality video for “Florida,” my favorite song from his latest album Potential. The vocals for “Florida” were done by a young woman named Kai who James found on the internet while…
