Following the success of their stunning debut Vacation, Big Scary have recently released two singles in the run up to album number two, Not Art. Luck Now, the second of the two, is a rich and melodic affair.

Allison Weiss- Say What You Mean

From the opening bars of Say What You Mean, Allison Weiss, a young Brookyln transplant, asserts herself as a powerful force with her sweet voice, energetic guitar riffs, and clever and honest lyrics. Bringing together the edge of The Strokes and uniquely perceptive lyrics about young romance that give Tegan and Sara a run for their money, Weiss’s second full-length album stands out amongst other indie-pop/rock records by eschewing the requisite apathy and bath of reverb in favor for killer ...

Rebecca Black Done Right: Becky G – “Becky From The Block”

Becky G - Becky from The Block
This came across my Twitter feed today and I kind of laughed when it was introduced as "How you properly Rebecca Black." My thoughts raced to an image of the former "Friday" singer, and I was fully prepared to have myself at least a little laugh. Instead, I really enjoyed it. It wasn't great, but it was a little easy to listen to. She's not Rebecca Black in the sense that she's talking about school, instead she has support from ...

The Knocks – “Modern Hearts” ft. St. Lucia

The Knocks and St. Lucia together have to make for one of the best records of the year, undoubtedly. St. Lucia have been delivering on all the hype from 2012, but they this connection with The Knocks is probably one of the finest gems from the band. Easily, The Knocks make any song a pleasure to listen to. They stick to what they do best and it shows song in and song out.

The complex lyrics find our narrator leaving her significant other, upset but ...

Album Review: Nantes’ ‘BeingsBeing’

Before you start reading our review, go below and start playing Nantes' "Avid." Let the music sink in. Nantes, a five-piece band from Sydney, have an uncanny way of becoming to a soundtrack-like tune in whatever 3-minute track you choose. Lead singer David Rogers is the defining voice of Nantes; with vocals that becoming a driving force of the synth-and-drum duo behind it.

Black Bottoms- Cre EP

In today’s musical climate, people would be more inclined to associate ‘Folk’ and ‘Bluegrass’ with the homogenized stomping and strumming of British band Mumford and Sons or Icelandic group Of Monsters and Men than anything that stays truer to the lineage of American Folk music. With that in mind, Cre EP is a breath of much needed fresh-air. Indiana natives Dave Alpert (Guitars/Vocals) and Morris Burns (Mandolin/Vocals) put tradition first in their exquisite four song EP. Together with producer Doucer ...

Ra Ra Riot – “When I Dream” (Pacific Air remix)

I've been selfishly holding back on posting this remix because of just how good this is. Though, it may have been because I kept playing the song over and over again. Formerly known as KO-KO. Pacific Air have been killing it with their EPs and remixes. We caught them live in Santa Ana the Griffith Observatory and they're better than advertised. These SoCal mates hooked up on their touring mates', Ra Ra Riot, latest hit, "When I Dream;" off the ...
