Lights Out by Sugarcult
Genre: pop punk/power punk/alt rock Rating: ½ Check Out: “Hiatus,” “Los Angeles,” “Do It Alone,” and “Majoring In Minors” website, myspace I’ll admit that I didn’t think much of Sugarcult since I heard Start Static way back when. However annoying “Bouncing Off the Walls,” was, Sugarcult has certainly come a long way since...
Eyes Open by Snow Patrol
Genre: alt rock/indie rock/britpop Rating: Check Out: “Make This Go on Forever,” “Set the Fire to the Third Bar,” “Headlights on Dark Roads,” and “Shut Your Eyes” website, myspace After the success of their album Final Straw, it’s safe to say that this album was highly anticipated. However, when it finally did come out, many of the...
Minutes To Midnight by Linkin Park
Genre: alt rock Rating: Check Out: “Leave Out All The Rest,” “Bleed It Out,” “In Pieces,” “What I’ve Done” Myspace, website My God, I can’t believe it. Somehow, someway, Linkin Park has managed to make a record that isn’t a rehash of Hybrid Theory or Meteora. In fact, I’m not quite sure what this record can be described...
North by Something Corporate
Genre: piano rock Rating: Check Out: “Space,” “As You Sleep,” “Down,” and “The Runaway” Myspace, Purevolume Since Something Corporate made a name for itself back in the late 1990s with its debut album Ready… Break they’ve made a name for themselves as piano rockers for teenagers. This album shows a maturation from that view, even...
A Fever You Can't Sweat Out by Panic! At The Disco
Genre: alt rock/big beat/dance Rating: ½ Check Out: “Lying Is the Most Fun a Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off,” “Build God, Then We’ll Talk,” “Camisado” Myspace, Purevolume Is it just me, or is every band that comes out of Las Vegas influenced by The Smiths? they’ve both breathed some fresh air into the indie scene and made the indie...
Nothing Is Sound by Switchfoot
Genre: alt rock/post-grunge/power pop Rating: ½ Check Out: “Happy Is A Yuppie Word,” “Shadow Proves The Sunshine,” “Easier Than Love,” “Lonely Nation” Myspace, website While I’m a self-proclaimed Switchfoot fan, this album was a bit of a disappointment in comparison to Beautiful Letdown. One of the problems here is that I enjoyed the music,...
The Devil And God Are Raging Inside Me by Brand...
Genre: alt rock/rock Rating: (Top 50) Check Out: “Not The Sun,” “Millstone,” “Luca (Reprise),” “Sowing Seed (Yeah)” Myspace When Brand New first hit the scene, they were just another band hailing from the distinctive Long Island emo scene. That label was pretty accurate for their first two albums, Your Favorite Weapon and Deja Entendu, though Deja...
Happy Supernatural Day!
To celebrate the season premiere of Supernatural tonight at 9 EST/8 CST on the CW (channel 11 for you Long-Island-and-NYC-ers), I’m reposting all of the SPN mixes I’ve made so far. They’re in the show’s chronological order. This is to be his home for the next four to eight months, yet it is wholly different and unfamiliar than the hotel room he’d stayed in last night. The...
