Earlier this year we picked up on Simen Mitlid's "Trying," and it turns out folks really liked it.Given that the Norwegian artist managed to catch my attention with this latest single "Reality Tsars," it seems he's onto something. So, I figured I'd s...

Sounds like The Strokes right? Well Albert Hammond Jr. is the guitarist of The Strokes, so that makes total sense.
Albert Hammond Jr.'s vocals remind me of Sufjan Stevens at times, and then unhinge into a more teenage garage-rock demeanor.
It's b...

I'm not sure what more to say in this review besides that I expected Beirut to have a more commercial sound. Like, the guy has almost as many streams on Spotify as China has citizens, or Freddy Mercury has octaves, or the opposite of how many metapho...

When this new song by In Tall Buildings crossed my path I figured the first thing to do was check out their SoundCloud. And boy what a surprise that held!

I'm not sure if "sad" is the right descriptor for this song, so instead I'll focus on the fact that a) the melody is cool; b) it's nice and experimental; c) it's just an all-around good song.
Apparently "Don't Let My Ink Fade" was written in a dark ...
