#albumoftheday / REVIEW: HALSEY: BADLANDS
I first heard Halsey when I saw her live at Boston Calling music festival back in May. She was a replacement for someone who canceled at the last minute and by the end of her seductive set, I wanted to call up and thank whoever canceled for freeing up the slot for her. I’m pretty

#albumoftheday / REVIEW: PAINTED PALMS: HORIZONS
A year and a half ago, Painted Palms released their wonderful debut, Forever, which was an album full of diverse songs, which seemed to draw inspiration from such artists as Passion Pit, Best Coast, The Beach Boys and Of Montreal. On their new album, Horizons, it’s not so easy to discern their influences, as their

#albumoftheday / REVIEW: CARLY RAE JEPSEN: E·MO·TION
Some songs can become too huge for their own good. Take Carly Rae Jepsen’s “Call Me Maybe,” for example. For a few years there, it seemed like it would be her only mega-hit single. Especially when the album it was from, Kiss, more or less flopped. But sometimes lightning strikes twice. Earlier this year Jepsen

#albumoftheday / REVIEW: BEACH HOUSE: DEPRESSION CHERRY
I like to believe that artists get better with each album they make. Of course, that’s not always the case. But there are some who keep improving with each release and I would say that is true of Beach House, otherwise known as Victoria Legrand and Alex Scally. They were always amazing, but their new

#albumoftheday / REVIEW: BON JOVI: BURNING BRIDGES
If you want to avoid a headache, you should probably avoid reading this review. You see, this is the most confusing — if not even slightly controversial — album Bon Jovi has ever released. First of all, Jon Bon Jovi and camp keep calling it a “fan album,” stating that their next album will be

LYRIC VIDEO: Katharine McPhee – “Stranger Than Fiction”
Now, here’s something we never expected to hear — a Katharine McPhee EDM song. It’s pretty good, too. Our only small complaint is that this sounds more like a remix than an actual song.

#songoftheday / REVIEW: Dead Letter Circus – “In Plain Sight”
The band Dead Letter Circus immediately reminds me of is Silverchair — and not just because they’re both from Australia. And I’m not talking about Silverchair’s early work when they were more or less a Nirvana clone. I’m talking about Silverchair’s last three albums (Neon Ballroom, Diorama and Young Modern), all truly brilliant and eclectic…
