Seaway’s debut album Hoser combines the best elements of pop punk, including earnest vocals and bright, catchy riffs, while still displaying enough diversity to hold its own.
On The Other Side, Tonight Alive display a newfound maturity and confidence accumulated over the past two years. These twelve tracks of passionate, driven pop rock are guaranteed to launch the band onto an entirely new level of success.
Adding fuel to the blend-rock-and-roll-with-pop-music fire, the Virginia quartet otherwise known as Parachute dive head first into the fight for a hit pop song with their latest record, Overnight.
Love You In The Dark, the first solo effort of Now, Now’s Brad Hale, slides seamlessly from repetitively somber to ecstatic within the span of a few songs and explores all manners of human strength and weakness. It manages to find the gaps in the armor of humankind in the most delicate way possible, which is often a considerable feat for seemingly innocuous pop or electronic music.
Although the songs within the album lack some musical distinction from one another, The SpacePimps’ third studio release covers a lot of ground. Whether you’re in the mood for some emotional and hard-hitting lyrics, moshing and singing along to some quality pop-punk, or a bit of nostalgia, you’ll definitely find something to love about this album.
Despite some minor mishaps, both Matt Vincent and Alex Correia hold their own with their earnest, genuine delivery of emotionally riveting music, stripping their musicianship to its bare bones to display their talent in its purest form.
Although You’re Always On My Mind marks the second full-length release for A Great Big Pile Of Leaves, it’s the band’s first album with an outside producer (Ed Ackerson) and the musical advances shine through. The album feels like the first time you surpass the “small talk†level with someone and realize that they’re holding plenty of mixed feelings about this whole life thing within themselves, too.
Real Friends are one of those bands who, although their musical repertoire is far from extensive, have yet to put out a bad song. Their latest EP Put Yourself Back Together is no exception – but there’s no sign of the band pushing their limits or trying something new.
With Feel, Sleeping With Sirens achieve every band’s goal: releasing a new album that offers something fresh while still retaining the sound their fans fell in love with. Whether your preference is angst-driven metal or poignant pop, this album is sure to leave you feeling something.
Forever Halloween digs deep to unearth some serious human truths – and sounds appropriately mature doing so. The album boasts worldliness in comparison to The Maine’s earlier catalogue, and it’s evident from the authenticity of the collection how effectively the members have channeled their experience of growing up into their work.
