Daytrader have hit it out of the park with Twelve Years, their emotionally driven debut full-length on Rise Records.
It has been over three years since The All-American Rejects’ less-than-stellar release of When The World Comes Down, and they’ve finally offered fans a sign of redemption. An outstanding blend of traditional Rejects alternative style with a touch of experimental flair, Kids in the Street is bound to be a hit among new and old fans alike.
While it may not be a classic, The Fray’s third full-length album Scars & Stories has a song for everyone in every mood. Whether you’re in love, in lust, heartbroken, or totally lost and confused, your new favorite song just might come from the band’s newest release.
The Static Jacks’ debut album If You’re Young is a record you might want to add to your music catalogue before the summer rolls in.
Canadian singer-songwriter Carly Rae Jepsen’s Curiosity already has fans crushing and the EP hasn’t even dropped in the US yet. Once it does, expect middle school girls (and boys) wearing Carly Rae Jepsen t-shirts, backpacks, everything – this girl is the next big pop crush.
At long last, You, Me and Everyone We Know has released the full length album that everyone has been waiting for since 2006 and it is exquisite.
If you are ready to drink and dance and enjoy some good new-fashioned rock and roll, then give The New Bedfords a listen.
New Politics ultimately sounds formulaic; it eventually lacks the initial pep that draws you into what this Danish band potentially has to offer. The songs are textbook from beginning to end; they are decent for what it’s worth, but there is no noticeable sheen in them. Many of the tracks, such as “Love is a Drug,†have their introductory moments of catchy beats or great bass lines, but that spark gradually fizzles.
Living Like Ghosts has made a big but potentially necessary move in its hunt for rock stardom: the jettisoning of two members, including a third guitarist, from its lineup. It would be hard for any band to justify a six-string attack, and the now four-piece group from Detroit is free to roam the country in a much roomier tour van and spread its shiny pop rock tunes to audiences near and far.
