By Alexis Schwallier: Red isn’t just the name of Taylor Swift’s latest album, or her sold out tour. From red lipstick, sparkly red shoes, and a fire-red guitar, it was obvious the color was the theme of the night. Coincidence? I think not. Everyone can relate to songs about love, heartbreak, and the struggles [...]

By David Ballou Moogfest 2012 “It’s all just four on the floor bullshit” I said those words to two of my friends one summer day in 2010, as they spent the better part of the afternoon trying to explain to me the differences between techno, house, trance and any other disparate subgenre of electronic dance [...]

This is Dan McCurry of the Charleston-based indie rock band Run Dan Run. You probably haven’t heard of us. That’s okay, we get that a lot actually. If you hadn’t heard, well, we recently put the finishing touches on our sophomore release Normal (out nationally on 1.10.12 on Hearts & Plugs), which we recorded entirely [...]
By Gavin Brown: Solid. It’s the only word that comes to mind when I try to describe The Sea Wolf Mutiny’s First EP, The Last Season. It’s funny, the definition of “solid” is a near perfect description of the band’s eight song EP: “not hollow or containing gaps” and “strongly built or made of strong [...]
By: Kurt Rambis Not too many years ago, a show pulled into the New Brookland Tavern to little fanfare. I think that All Good Citizens had more promotion whenever they played. Headlining the bill was moderately buzzing Blitzen Trapper who had just signed to Sub Pop. Opening up for them was a young band that [...]

Their live act is spectacularly grungy, plenty dance-infused, and features as many guitar pedal / mixing board acrobatics as Radiohead and U2. If you ever get the chance (they play regionally all the time, making [...]
