We Have Band – “Visionary”

written by: Tom Crawford on October 13, 2011

Visionary We Have Band’s new tune “Visionary” starts with a unique low horn part, almost sounding like a beat you’d find Kanye rapping over. Instead though, it transitions into something a little smoother and mellow, differing from the experimental dance-rock the group normally puts out. The pace is refreshing, giving the listener a chance to take in all […]

Death Songs – “Ophelia”

written by: Tom Crawford on October 11, 2011

written by: Tom Crawford on October 10, 2011

One Thing Peter and Kerry, a boy-girl duo out of London, sing about love and love lost on their newly recorded song “One Thing.” The back and forth chorus cleverly and painfully points out sometimes all it takes is one thing for love to change. Musically the duo seem to have a intimate relationship, always on the same level creatively and […]

written by: Tom Crawford on October 7, 2011

Balance On Tuesday (10/11), Future Islands will release their third LP, On the Water. “Balance,” one of the album’s more dance friendly tracks, has a certain feel-good quality to it.
