Color us damn impressed. Totem’s latest track, “Chase Me,” is one truly gorgeous, mid-tempo electro-ballad. With its monster beats and haunting vocals, it’s like the dreaminess of Bastille meets the potency of Imagine Dragons. Seriously, it’s that good. And he’s giving it away for free. Unfortunately, it’s in flac format, so you won’t be able…

By now you’ve probably realized that we think that LIGHTS can do no wrong. Well, this haunting, down-tempo tune is just further proof of her flawlessness. Lyrics, vocals, music — it’s beautiful and touching all around.

Morgoth’s “God Is Evil” 7″ and digital single is their first studio recording since 1996’s “Feel Sorry For The Fanatic” and, holy fuck, was it worth the wait. From the second the song opens, they unleash a cavalcade of spiky, blood-spilling riffs, brutal drums and scathing vocals. It’s a massive onslaught of evil, every second

You see, the track is produced by Future Cut, who’s recently worked with Lily, meanwhile Whinnie has written songs…

Listening to this debut track by Laura Doggett — in collaboration with Sohn — for something like the eighth time in a row. Mesmerized by it. Such a haunting, emotive electronica track, it’s like St. Vincent meets ’90’s Bjork. A very good thing indeed. -Michael

As you probably know, I recently reviewed Youngblood Hawke’s August 6th, 2014 show at Brighton Music Hall in Boston. My review was wholly positive and I feel the same way about their debut album, Wake Up, which is, in fact, crammed with plenty of gorgeous anthems to rouse you. Each of its songs are stimulating

A most unexpected but pleasant collaboration…

An intoxicating anthem if ever there was one.

Dances are an indie rock band that began in New York in 2011 by singer/guitarist Trevor Vaz. Initially a solo songwriting project, it turned into a collaborative trio in 2013 upon the addition of bassist/vocalist Sam Stoltje and drummer David Su. “Summer in the shade,” Vaz sings during “Doc Youth” and that’s exactly what the…

To be perfectly honest, I’ve never been a fan of Godsmack. Back around the time of their debut album, I went to one of their shows because I was publishing a hair metal zine and their drummer was a guy who’d played in Lillian Axe. While I didn’t hate the show, to my hair band
