Fresh from the golden state, Silver Snakes are joining a wave of contemporaries who are putting the rock back into punk rock.
For his forthcoming fourth album The Midsummer Station, Owl City’s Adam Young did something he has never done before: he collaborated with co-producers, co-writers, and other artists. The album is a culmination of crisp, finely-tuned vocals, and explosive pop tunes that will delight the moment they hit.
Mixing straight up punk with atmospheric and melodic elements, Sirs have created a combination of sound that is raw and memorable with their self-titled debut.
twenty | one | pilots’ synth-pop style hits a home run on their latest EP Three Songs. With the newfound support of Fueled by Ramen, Twenty | One | Pilots take the dance style found on their 2011 debut Regional At Best a step further.
Fang Island’s newly-released Major hovers somewhere between anthemic rock and gentle indie music, never quite defining itself strongly as any particular genre. The result is an album that simply slides over the senses, leaving a vague impression but failing to pack enough power to warrant repeated plays.
The three tracks switch up the traditional Boys Like Girls pop rock sound with a more country influence. While the Crazy World EP is just a teaser for their full-length, fans get a taste of what they have to look forward to from Boys Like Girls.
Kansas, the second EP from sunflower state natives The After Party, puts the pop in pop rock. With a toned-down sound, this EP will soothe as well as enthuse its listeners.
With the release of their second full-length, Make Do And Mend have avoided the sophomore slump and come out with an impressive and massive-sounding album. Everything You Ever Loved sees the band expanding their sound while still keeping the heavy emotion always found in their music.
The Dirty Projectors’ latest effort Swing Lo Magellan channels the band’s trademark eclectic indie sound while offering more pop sensibility than their past material.
Filled with personality and tongue-in-cheek lyrics, Collide With The Sky brings Pierce The Veil to an impressive new level.
