Flannel Mouth’s “Pull In Your Horns” EP Review
While walking through a mid-western deserted ghost town with my spurs spinning in the dirt, I bet I could hear Flannel Mouth’s dreary and sullen sounds echoing off in the distance. Their newly dropped EP, Pull In Your Horns, was probably recorded by the devil himself. If you’re a fan of the eerie and downcast [...]

On the heels of their Late Night with Jimmy Fallon performance they were opening for folksy rocker Ben Kweller. The show opened with the NY band The Dig. Four guys dressed in leather and [...]
Alexander Ebert’s “Alexander” Album Review

It’s a very relaxing, mellow sound. I was surprised to hear such a great sound from an electronic indie band. “Spacedoubt” is the first song off [...]
Concert Review: Young the Giant, Grouplove @ Terminal 5
For the most part, co-headlining shows are pretty great. You get to see two bands guaranteed to be good for a nice low price, while also benefitting from the groups playing off each other’s energy. Plus, if there’s an opener, they have usually made the cut of approval from both bigger bands. This can add [...]
