Ain’t Got Long by Journey Home
Ain’t Got Long by Journey Home is kind of a different album for me. It’s early American mountain music. I like pop, rock, blues reggae and occasional metal and hip hop, so a an album that is mostly a cappella and mostly old time gospel songs is a trip down a different road for me. [...]
For the Boats by State Lines
Two Jonny’s, a Tom and a Ted make up the Long Island born band, State Lines.

Future Echoes and Past Replays by Slim Morris
Future Echoes and Past Replays is the surprising, emotional, and melancholic result of fusing Americana, sixties pop/rock and Swedish musicianship. It’s safe to say I fell in love with this album before I’d even finished the opening track ‘Fear Of Flying’. ‘Fear Of Flying’ is a love song and the accented vocals are beautifully pained, [...]

Reggae could be considered one of them, if you know how to work the ingredients. ‘Reole is an artist that brings Caribbean music from his heart.

Christopher Siu
Some people nowadays, for one reason or another, are tending to look for a really old sort of sound in their music. I have mentioned some of those bands and artists in a few of my reviews, including some of the first ones I wrote. Christopher Siu falls into this category. Even though he can [...]
Second Hand Rapture by MS MR
This album opens with ‘Hurricane’ and the immediately the listener is plunged into a soundscape overlaid with dreamy vocals that morph into a more pop-esque sound for the chorus. Right from the start it’s clear that the lyrics on this album are an important part of its overall production. The lyrics and vocals are laid [...]
