Remember when everyone thought Bring Me The Horizon were going nowhere after Suicide Season? Not only did they prove the haters wrong but people started taking them seriously. Fast forward to 2015 and we have their most impressive album yet. It may not leave you moshing but it’ll rock the hell out of you. Oli Sykes vocals have gone through
Read more2015 was HUGE for Twenty One Pilots. If you haven’t heard of them before you sure do now. Blurryface is the band’s first album to hit number one on the billboard 200 and it’s well deserved. It’s crazy blend of indie, electronic, reggae, hip hop, and pop will have you finding it hard to put this album down. There’s something
Read moreThe Maine have managed to make the most Maine album yet. Seriously, everything you love about them have been fine tuned and mixed together to create ten killer tracks. John O’s bubblegum pop lyrics and rock and roll voice will leave you bobbing your head and even randomly dancing on certain songs. Kennedy and Jared’s catchy as hell guitars on
Read moreThere is just no stopping Fall Out Boy. The band continue to gain momentum by following up their massive comeback album, Save Rock And Roll, with American Beauty/American Psycho. An incredible pop album that took a lot of balls for these guys to make. Not only the first to not feature guest vocalists but the first to feature samples such
Read moreSigh….it’s really a bummer that hardly anyone gave this album a shot dispute loving Black Sun. Kintsugi is an album that’ll make you realize why you love Death Cab. The melancholy in Ben Gibbard’s voice and lyrics. The beautiful and sometimes loud instrumentals. Unlike Codes and Keys, this is 100% them, doing what they’re good at while evolving slightly in
Read moreThis is the album that made me love my local music scene. Raw, in your face, and catchy as hell. Mike, Charlie, and Matt provide wonderful aggressive and mellow vocals while killing it at each of their instruments. 2016 should hold bigger and better things for Milwaukee’s own Estates. I highly recommend giving this one a listen. I think you’ll
Read moreWhat happens when you combine Taking Back Sunday, All Time Low, and The Starting Line together? Why you get England’s very own As It Is of course. In a year where good pop punk is in short supply, Never Happy, Ever After brings back that spark of why we love this genre. High energy, super catchy, and relatable lyrics
Read moreLike fine wine, Enter Shikari continue to get better and better and this album is no exception. With a sound that grabs the listeners by the ears with lyrics unlike anything else they’re listening to at the time. Unlike writing about personal and relatable things, Enter Shikari write about the world around them and warn listeners. While some people might
Read moreWhile some songs on this album should have stayed on the cutting room, 5SOS are starting to find their own identity and sound. I enjoyed this a hell of a lot better than the self titled. The lyrics are more relatable, tackling depression, family issues, and of course, relationships. The band once again teams up with producer John Feldmann for
Read moreThis year was pretty damn incredible for music. The top 40s had nothing but awesome number one songs. However, I managed to find plenty of black sheep from pop to hip hop to shoegaze. Here we go! Meghan Trainor – Dear Future Husband Oh boy…first off, I like Meghan Trainor. I think she’s a talented vocalist who made some
Read moreLast week Alex DeLeon announced a new project called Bohnes. Seeing as how he was the last remaining member it’s safe to say that The Cab is officially dead. How unfortunate cause The Cab were incredibly underrated. They found this happy mix between pop rock and straight pop. From DeLeon’s powerful voice to Ian Crawford’s shredding, I thought they were
Read moreAfter four long years we finally get a taste of Adele’s upcoming album, 25, and it’s…stale. First off, I don’t think it’s bad. Not at all but the internet seems to have lost it’s shit more than all the Hotline Bling vines. It could be the overhype that killed it for me but I can’t help but think that

I had the pleasure to interview Hemispheres before their show at Yield bar. Enjoy Would you three introduce yourselves and state your position in the band? Tim: I’m Tim. I play the guitar and sing the vocals. Jessie: I’m Jessie and I play the drums. James: I’m James and I play bass. How did you three meet and eventually formed? Tim: We
Read moreThe fact that Neck Deep are as popular as they are now is fascinating. Only three years after forming they are currently signed to Hopeless Records and played the main stage at this year’s Warped Tour. Damn….personally I didn’t get it. Besides a handful of songs, I merely thought of them as The Story So Far wannabes who

Read moreLike a fine wine, Estates get better with each new release. With two EPs, a split with Our Lady, and an album, this leads us to their finest album yet titled, It’s Great To Be Alone. Possibly the best album in Milwaukee’s emo revival scene. On to the review! Tuesday So already I’m completely hooked by this fast opener. The
Read moreFrom the mind of Samer Ghani comes an electronic project called Comet Tales. A fun and dreamy band that draws influence from groups such as Owl City and Angels & Airwaves. Over a year of hard work has led to his first release called Lucid, a mellow (and sometimes aggressive) album that should be played on a night drive with
Read moreWhat’s that?! TAI are back!? Playing Almost Here in full!? A reunion and a farewell….huh? It’s a huge bummer that they are choosing to play one show and then go their separate ways once again. I personally think they can thrive in today’s music scene and here are five reasons why. 1: DIY/Crowd funded album If they decide to record
