City Mouse – Get Right
Review — January 22, 2018
The Fest is a pretty cool event. The first time or two I went, I went to see the headliners on the big stages, packing a day of well known (by punk standards) into one action-packed 12-hour period. Over time, I’ve come to seek out the newer bands on the …
City Mouse – So Far Out
Review — December 24, 2024
There are few bands that hit with the mix of raw emotion and musical talent as a live City Mouse show. There are even fewer bands that can capture that live feeling on a record. It’s been a long 7 years since Get Right, but So Far Out keeps it …

Motion City Soundtrack – Even if it Kills Me
Review — November 8, 2007
If you're like me, the state of Minnesota is automatically associated with one of two things: 1) Mall of America and 2) Fargo. One is awesome because it has rollercoasters in it while the other single-handedly made me scared to ever visit the states of North Dakota and Minnesota for …
City of Ships – Tour EP
Review — March 31, 2008
Now, I had only heard of this band's existence and never actually had the opportunity to listen to their music until I was able to see them. Honestly, I was dumbstruck by how excellent they were (good musicians, good amount of passion, good amount of energy), and it was not …
City of Ships – Live Free or Don't
Review — October 21, 2008
One of the more surprising events or rather instances that I have been able to witness is that of discovering the three piece outfit City of Ships. The group's frenetic energy and obvious emotional stake in the music which they play is simultaneously impressive and inspiring. Live Free or Don't …

Music / Fest 20: The Fest 20
Feature — August 5, 2022
It’s hard to believe that The Fest is in its 20th iteration. The festival always had ambition, but it’s a real testament to still be going 20+ years later. And not just because of pandemic challenges, but because punk bands tend to come and go. It would be impossible to …

Gus Englehorn SPB: Assuming the album name, Dungeon Master, is a D&D allusion: what is your favorite pop-culture reference during the recent D&D revival? Englehorn: I got the name for the album from this guy who came up to me after a show I played. He told …

Feature — April 4, 2023
Eric Angelo Bessel (Lore City, solo artist) SPB: Where do you get your inspiration from? Bessel: When beginning a new song, my go-to foundational drone is the Mellotron’s cello.
