Nightwave – The Feel EP 08.10.2011 by Aaron

Now, I said that I was going to check out the new album from Nightwave about a month ago. Shit has been hectic and I’ve been struggling to keep up. But do not fear, I’ve listened to and seriously enjoyed Nightwave’s, ‘The Feel’, EP. In case you missed the last post for Nightwave’s video for, ‘Feel’, you can …

Taz – Gold Tooth Grin 12.02.2010 by Aaron

I’ve come to the realization that an artist’s name and/or album title is what first grabs my attention when it comes to new music.

I woke up on Sunday morning just like any other; half off the air mattress, pizza on my shirt, and cursing myself for being to lazy to remove the contacts from my dust filled eyes the night before. Time for coffee and a subway ride to the bus stop…then a bus ride over to Randall’s Island. A strange …

Tweak Bird

Tweak Bird – S/T 08.10.2010 by Aaron

What is this? No synth? No deep “melt your face” bass? Just two brothers, guitar and drums…and maybe some sporadic wind instruments? Absolutely! Some avenues of rock music are still fresh and I’m really enjoying the latest self-titled release from LA’s Tweak Bird. I’ve been following the brothers Bird since shortly after they released their album ‘Reservations,’ in …
