Stop what you’re doing, because At The Drive-In is back with their first album in 17 years. If you think the band has lost a step, though, you’re about to be sorely mistaken. Within seconds of the opening track, “No Wolf Like The Present”, you realize that the power of the band’s sound is still where it once was on

Read moreAUDIO: Infamy – “Demo 2017”
The metal scene in Milwaukee is severely underrepresented, and outside of a few select bars, getting heavy music out to the city can be a bit difficult. However, a trio of songs from new local metal act Infamy may be able to change that. Recorded in Gary, Indiana, the band’s demo is a brash, hard-hitting stack of heavy. In under
Read moreVIDEO: Levels – “Slip”
Metalcore as a genre is pretty intense overall, but when you add the fact that Levels provide metalcore from the deep south, somehow things kick up a notch. The Arkansas quintet keep things a little bit country in their video for “Slip”, from their self-released “Exist” EP. The track is brutal from start to finish, and the clip is just
Read moreBully at Cactus Club: A Review
Bully played at Cactus Club on Tuesday, Jan. 19, accompanied by tour mates Fake Limbs that served as the opener. Perhaps an unlikely pair, as Fake Limbs’ almost theatrically boisterous presence was countered by the paradoxical subdued aggression of Bully. If you’re unfamiliar with Bully, it is a punk-y, grungy alt-rock group formed by audio engineer, vocalist and guitar player

A good band name is hard to come by these days, and Temple, TX hardcore group Everyone Dies In Utah has nailed it with theirs. The band recently signed with InVogue Records, and has announced that their self-titled album will be released through the label in spring 2016. The first single dropped on New Year’s Day, however, and “Chronophobia” is
Read moreAUDIO: Hawthorne Heights – “Hurt”
Okay, so quick backstory time here; I was feeling a bit nostalgic, and during a rather unpleasant day, felt the need to find “The Silence In Black and White” by Hawthorne Heights on Spotify. Then, after pulling them up (do people still use that term? Did they ever?) I discovered that the band recently released a new record. I, being

Read moreREVIEW: Various Artists – “Punk Goes Pop Volume 6”
‘ Punk Goes Pop Volume 6 is out, and while I could go into a whole commentary about how none of the bands featured on the compilation are actually neither “punk” nor “pop”, and that this thing should be renamed immediately, I’ll spare you that lecture. Though might I suggest they start calling this compilation “Fearless Records presents: Hot Topic’s
Read moreThe Teeth – Eat.Sleep.Drink EP
The side project of members of A Farewell Rescue, The Teeth have unveiled their first EP, “Eat.Sleep.Drink”. Much like Radiohead’s “In Rainbows”, it’s available for whatever price you want to pay for it. I downloaded it for free. But it’s worth… more than free. Every track is heavy. Makes you want to go smash things. Preview this album, go download
