American Steel - The Fest 6

The Bay Area's American Steel originally formed in 1995.  After six years of touring and releases to what at the time they considered little fanfare, the band moved into a different sound and felt the band needed a different name. In 2002, with their new moniker, Communiqué, the band gave…

Titus Andronicus- The Monitor


Tue.Aug.31.2010

Much like the play for which they are named, there is one word to describe this album: Epic. For Christ’s sake, it opens up with Abraham Lincoln’s infamous Lyceum Address. You know the one, “As a notion of free men, we will live forever or die by suicide”. Epic? Yeah, I... Read More

Shang-A-Lang- The Collection


Tue.Aug.24.2010

How do you eat trail mix packs? I prefer opening up the package and dumping 1/4th of the bag into my mouth. I’m not one to separate all peanuts and almonds and M&Ms and raisins so that I may eat them all separately. That totally defeats the purpose of it... Read More


Bars of Gold- Of Gold


Tue.Aug.24.2010

Like most people, I felt like Bear Vs. Shark breaking up in late 2005 was one of the most horrific atrocities to strike the music world; something beautiful and necessary for the world that I took advantage of was suddenly taken from me. I became violent. I lashed out and... Read More


Sundowner- We Chase The Waves


Tue.Aug.17.2010

As far as Midwestern punk rockers are concerned, Chris McCaughan might very well be the messiah. Playing in the former yet still well appreciated Broadways and currently alongside fellow Chicagoans Brenden Kelly and Neil Hennessy in the crowd favorite The Lawrence Arms, he has developed a pretty impressive resume with relative ease....

Balance and Composure/Tigers Jaw- Split


Wed.Aug.11.2010

Side A/Dan: I came into this album solely for the Tigers Jaw side but after numerous listens, I have to admit I’ve been listening to the songs from Balance and Composure twice as much. This is by no means a slight to Tigers Jaw; it’s just that the A side of this record is just... Read More
