Some Ember : Deep Ocean Dylan Travis tends to work within guitar-centered environments , forcing rousing pop songs through a lo-fidelity spectrum. But through his alias Some Ember , he flips his work onto its side, giving it a glossy new sheen. ' Deep Ocean ', unlike Travis' work as Man/Miracle , is electronic-based. Packed together with soaring synth lines and a breathtaking vocal performance; it's in the vein of M83, such is its unrelenting euphoria. <a href=" http://crashsymbols.bandcamp.c om/track/deep-ocean" _mce_href=" http://crashsymbols.bandcamp.c om/track/deep-ocean"> Deep Ocean by Some Ember</a> [...]
Deep Ocean by Some Ember Man/Miracle frontman Dylan Travis has been keeping his electronic side project under wraps for some time, but today Some Ember debuts with "Deep Ocean." The track is part of a killer electronic/hip-hop compilation fresh out, Dope Mountain Fuck Vol. 2 . The compilation marks a new beginning to a preexisting label collaboration amongst friends, Crash Symbols . Here's more on that: About a year-and-a-half ago I first met [...]

As late August threatens to draw our season of laziness and idle behavior to a close, summer's end seems to have already been written on our Facebook walls. What with festival stage collapses from the Indiana State Fair to Belgium's Pukkelpop uniting disparate acts (from Sugarland to the Smith Westerns) and their unlucky fans, tragedy also struck the LA semi-vintage metal scene with the loss of Warrant frontman Jani Lane, which has perhaps incited numerous 80s hair metal groups to reform...

Hailing from Oakland, CA, Man/Miracle is an experimental rock band that's all about having fun. The band released their debut album The Shape of Things last winter, and are already working on a follow up - having released "Don't Waste It," the first single from their new record this past March. The release date of the new album is TBD so stay tuned. The California boys deliver hazy rock with wailing vocals, strong guitar riffs and steady drums. Check out the new single. Equally catchy is the "Don't [...]
