Band Profile: Stoner
This is Stoner. This is my new favorite band. They are every band stuck in a dive bar, a little too drunk, a little too high, with WAY too little appreciation being shown for what these cats are laying down.…
Band Profile: Warpaint
This is Warpaint. Not only do they have a great name, but they come equipped with an original lush dream pop sound. It’s reminiscent of the vocal throat harmonies you might hear in chants by monks in a monastery. Everyone…
Band Profile: Sheer Mag
This is Philadelphia based rock band Sheer Mag. Have you been missing pure rock n roll? Y’know… that real shit. Cranking guitars that effortlessly rock without assaulting, rolling without all the bloody aggression. That 70’s rock. HUGE melodies and big…

This is Birdeatsbaby. When a band has a name like Birdeatsbaby, you gotta click on that listen, right? Right. So what kind of band chooses such a unique moniker to represent their music? A bunch of English progressive dark goths…
Band Profile: cleopatrick
This is cleopatrick. They are a two-piece from Cobourg, Ontario, Canada and hard to label. The obvious starting point is ‘rock’, but there is a bombastic flo and bang to their stripped down approach. It’s got a biting edge, but…
