Kay Kay and His Weathered Underground - Live From 'The Pretty Parlour'

The new project from the bassist of Gatsby's American Dream. This album mixes many styles of music into a fluent, cohesive whole. Hey Momma is the stand-out from the album, with a flair of jazz shown by the soloing on various instruments as jazz musicians would in a standard. Definitely one to check out.

Moneen - Are We Really Happy With Who We Are Right Now?

A few years ago I read a review of this album in my one of my local street press publications. The reviewer described Moneen as a cross between Jimmy Eat World and Saves The Day. I instantly thought 'Wow, that sounds pretty good, I'm gonna have to check that out'. I was lucky enough that my local record store had a copy. I checked it out, and I liked what I heard. Personally I don't think that Moneen sound at all like a Jimmy Eat World or Saves The Day. They definitely have influences from either band but their sound is much more founded in the world of art-punk. Sounds and noise frequently take the place of where most bands would use riffs. The main appeal of Moneen's music to me is the emotion that irradiates from all songs. Whether the songs be loud or quiet, the emotion and intensity still remains high. The highlight is the epic closing track, 'The Last Song I will Ever Want To Sing' demonstrates the band at their bipolar best.

Brand New - Fight Off Your Demons Demos

These songs are from the recording sessions that Brand New did in preparation for last years The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me. They are a fair indication of what was to come, with a stripped back version of 'Luca' appearing and parts of some of the demos appearing in new tunes. Most of the material on here is a bit more laid back than what was released on TDAGARIM and some of new ideas were really good to hear. I find it particularly to see how the songs have evolved from some of their original forms. Hopefully these songs get re-recorded as full band versions one day because some of the material on this album is extremely good. I consider 'Untitled 5' to be one of the best songs the band has ever written.
