Posted on June 23, 2014June 24, 2014 by Alexis Tiedemann

Rocks, trees and other organics are the driving force behind The Wonder Revolution’s new LP WOW, and the genre of “wondermusic” it strives to create. Whimsical sounds and capricious melodies are the heart of the album, blended together in a seemingly made-up-on-the-spot way, winding along like an abandoned mountain road. The album, which features a…

Posted on April 11, 2014April 11, 2014 by Alexis Tiedemann

For a band that shot to the top and stayed there, The Kooks have been rather silent; the British rockers haven’t released an album since 2011. But it was worth the wait. Their new EP titled Down, out April 22 on Astralwerks, is everything I hoped for and more. The first song, “Down,” is a…

Posted on April 4, 2014April 4, 2014 by Alexis Tiedemann

Baby Guru is, once again, all over the board.
