Sera Cahoone – Naked – Music Stream

October 28, 2012

Sera’s strumming and intimate sharings feel stronger now, perhaps more hopeful. But don’t expect her to cover “Walking on Sunshine” any time soon.

Thy Majestie – Harbinger of a New Dawn – Music Stream

October 28, 2012

This Italian power metal crew has never shied away from mining history for album themes. ShiHuangDi tells the story of the brutal Chinese emperor.

Dum Dum Girls – Lord Knows – Music Stream

October 27, 2012

Classy and timeless, “Lord Knows” is wise and heartwarming, a song of hugs and admissions.

Propagandhi – Failed States – Music Stream

October 26, 2012

Propagandhi get more metal as time goes on, but hey, extreme conditions demand extreme responses. The lean, thrash-y “Failed States” is a boot right to the jaw.

California Wives – Purple – Music Stream

October 26, 2012

More New Wavey than The Killers, and lighter in vocal punch and content (when The Killers are on point), but the U2ish guitarwork is pleasant.

Our Last Night – Age Of Ignorance – Music Stream

October 25, 2012

A typical emo band name, but you might need stuff like “Act of Ignorance” the next time your girlfriend (or boyfriend) leaves your ass on the curb.

The Orb – Hold Me Upsetter – Music Stream

October 24, 2012

Synopsis: Well-respected UK electro/dance duo team up with wacko Reggae legend. Cool songs like “Hold Me Upsetter” ensue.

The Foreshadowing – Oionos – Music Stream

October 24, 2012

Italian doomsters The Foreshadowing get props from Katatonia’s Anders Nyström for being “one of the finest quality doom acts around these days.” High praise indeed.

In This Moment – Blood – Music Stream

October 23, 2012

In This Moment’s metal attack lives and dies by the energy of singer Maria Brink, so luckily she’s in an especially cathartic mood on “Blood.”

The Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band – Devils Look Like Angels – Music Stream

October 22, 2012

Thunk and twang washboard and slide blues. Authentic like, not poser douche. Tom Waits fans ought to feel at home here.
