The Rambis Slam Dunks of 2011
There’s lots I didn’t listen to this year I would have liked or meant to hear because let’s face it, as you get older you don’t have time or patience unless your name is David and as a young boy you wanted to go by Russ. Here are 12 records I liked a lot. I’m [...]
The Sea Wolf Mutiny Release The Apple Tree
The Apple Tree has been floating around the minds of The Sea Wolf Mutiny for a long time now. They released “The Last Season” in August and had some extra songs lying around that just needed a little more work and didn’t exactly fit on that record. After their CD release for The Last Season [...]
Video: Matrimony-Last Love
Over the last couple of months I’ve realized that becoming famous and getting a buzz in the music world is all a big game. PR companies run the blog world and when they feed it to the 3,000+ music blogs out there, they dish it out. In turn it has made the blog/music journalism world [...]
The Lion In Winter Acoustic Session
The Lion in Winter For over three years now we’ve been covering the music projects of Hunter Duncan.

Top 20 of 2011 (National)
I think I listened to more new music in 2011 than I ever have before in my life. On a local level, I literally try and listen to every release at least one time. That’s not really possible on a larger scale, but I did listen to a ton of new music this year. Here [...]
Foley’s Year in Review
Thoughts on 2011: We already posted some of our thoughts on 2011 here: But here are some memories we have as a band over the past year: All Get Out – The Season: we were blown away by the badassness of this album. Always cool to see local bands get even wider exposure and put out such [...]

Rupert’s Year End Scruple
Hi there. I would like to take this page to talk about this year. Not only in music, but in everything. I could easily say that this year was probably the best year of my life. I guess I’m only like 12, so I haven’t had that many years yet but this one was definitely [...]
A Very Z and M Christmas
Just like A Christmas Story, Bing Crosy and David Bowie, and Home Alone, Zooey Deschanel has become synonymous with Christmas. It only took one scene in Elf for her to do that, but this year she took it one step farther by making an instant classic Christmas album with her band She and Him. A [...]
Milton Hall + Numb World
Milton Hall Website Milton Hall’s newest release Numb World is 15 tracks mixing lofi pop gems with short stark instrumental bits to bridge the album together. As is the beauty of home recording, Hall has the ability to do whatever he wants. Whether it be having the sparse 3 minutes of “Seeing The Real You” [...]
