The new SUM 41 cd is really, really good.
It’s absurd that it took HATEBREED almost five years to put out a new album, but after listening to “Perseverance” it was obviously well worth the wait. I’m still not a fan of the overall “tough-guy image” that this band manages to exhude more often than not, but I can’t deny how strong of a [...]
For a band that I’ve seen more than a few times live and have had sporatic attempts in listening to their back catalog, I always felt that HOT ROD CIRCUIT was a good band, but never a great band. “Sorry About Tomorrow,” their third full-length, and first for Vagrant is about to change that conception [...]

A bit more than a year ago, THE HONOR SYSTEM came out with a great debut full length on Asian Man Records. The band instantly reminded me of what BAD RELIGION would have sounded like had it been founded in the Chicago/Midwest punk scene. My interest waned in this band though, and I pretty much [...]
Well, I'm back in NY for the first time since July, and everything about it just feels good. Sure, my bedroom has been converted into my father's office; all my furniture seems strangely smaller; and it's pretty cold, but there's just something irresistible about being with family (and with food). So on that note, I wish everyone reading this a meaningful holiday and some personal warmth.

On a different note – I had a to visit four different stores this morning to pick up the new SUM 41 (sold out at a best buy?!?! how about two best buys!) – I can't wait to see the first week sales on this one. I wasn't really into this guys before, but this release is pretty darn awesome. If this is going to be their true breakout (nevermind the last one sold over 2 million copies), it's certainly worth it.

I plan to consume approximately 14 pounds of turkey. I hope my stomach is feeling expandable!
Before I go into dissecting “Everynight Fireworks,” I would like to disclose that a) I never got into BRAID, b) I still am not all that familar with BRAID, and c) HEY MERCEDES IS NOT BRAID. Okay, now that that is out of the way, this is a fantastic, hooky, smooth pop-rock disc with a [...]
