A Rocket To The Moon has been around since 2006, and the band is only just now dropping its second album. A little taken aback? We were too, until we gave the new album, Wild & Free, a listen. This band has matured a lot in their seven years, developing a very folksy angle to…
SHOW REVIEW: EOTO at Georgia Theatre
On the eve of a month that many of us consider to be the start of the season of spring, a flower was in full bloom. Instead of promises of warmer weather, the blooming spectacle of EOTO’s iconic lotus flower stage promised concertgoers a night of seemingly endless body-moving jams. The duo, comprised of Jason…
SHOW REVIEW: Tame Impala at the Georgia Theater
Some concertgoers can’t get enough of upbeat, high-energy shows that keep them dancing all night. Others prefer a more laid-back musical environment, one in which they can simply bob their heads and let the music soak into their skin. We give you the best of both worlds: Australian fivesome, Tame Impala. Their show at the…
REVIEW: Dana Swimmer’s Veloce
As someone living in Athens and happily soaking up all the music that this Classic City has to offer, I can say one thing without hesitation: Athens band Dana Swimmer makes me proud to be here. Their new album, Veloce, is an eccentric intermingling of rock n’ roll sounds that everyone and their mother adores…
Backstage with The Used
So I just got to chill backstage at Tabernacle in Atlanta with Jeph Howard from The Used. Jealous? Don’t fret. I filmed our little hang out session for you, so you get to listen to us talk about the evolution of The Used, the Take Action Tour, and what’s next for the band. Have at…
Four Short Film Music Videos to Battle Your A.D.D.
In today’s culture, size definitely matters. As a rule of majority, we tend to take a mere glance at something before moving onto the next big thing. It’s just how the Youtube era works — brevity and catchiness are vital elements needed to grab viewers long enough for them to actually finish watching a video….
Q&A with Brazilian rock group MindFlow (currently opening on the Take Action Tour)
I’m sure some of you music lovers have heard of – or even attended a show for – the Take Action Tour. I just got off the phone with guitarist Rodrigo Hildago from Brazilian rock group, MindFlow (quite a chill dude with a fabulous accent), who was kind enough to chat with me on the…
Anthony Stubelek releases new song, Until Night
Anthony Stubelek, one of Vinyl Mag’s ongoing musical obsessions (you might remember him from our interview in his studio with Circle Takes the Square), has released a new song. And we’re here to share it with you. And you are so so welcome. Enjoy.
REVIEW: The Bronx IV by The Bronx
After much anticipation, Los Angeles punk rock band The Bronx has broken a five-year musical hiatus and released its fourth studio album, The Bronx IV, which dropped today. The Bronx has been an underground staple in the hardcore scene for over a decade, and this record seems to pick right back up where the band…
REVIEW: Ladyfinger (ne)’s Errant Forms
Ladyfinger (ne) occupy a strange locale between punk, post-punk and FM rock. Nothing truly gets sketched out, but that seems to be Ladyfinger (ne)’s objective here. In their own words, they describe pulling inspiration from early 70’s classic rock. But that label is a bit of a misnomer, because Errant Forms sounds nothing like the…
