...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead – Worlds Apart

Review — February 7, 2005

Vocalist Conrad Keely poses a question on the album's title track; "What's the future of Rock-n-Roll?" A rhetorical question? Perhaps, but he chooses to answers anyway, even if it is sarcastically: "Does it matter?" To answer his question, yes, it does. For if the future is filled with annoying indie/pop …

The Number Twelve Looks Like You – An Inch of Gold for an Inch of Time

Review — March 22, 2005

2003 might seem like forever ago for some, possibly even two years ago for the majority of us. There were many good releases in those twelve months. Put On Your Rosy Red Glasses was one of these. So naturally I was very excited for The Number Twelve Looks Like You's …

...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead – So Divided

Review — November 13, 2006

In 2005, Texan art-rockers ...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead released World's Apart to critical acclaim and commercial failure. The unfortunate victims of a leak that saw the album seep onto the Internet months before its heavily delayed release date. At the time, Conrad Keely openly …

The Number Twelve Looks Like You – Mongrel

Review — July 23, 2007

The Number Twelve Looks Like You have always been that band that would come close to winning me over, but never impressed me enough for me to listen to their albums more than three or four times. With their previous release, Nuclear. Sad. Nuclear, there were songs I thought were …

Bosch's With You – Dreams That Come a Thing Part II

Review — May 2, 2008

I believe that Bosch's With You is the first Russian band I've sat down and actually listened to. I can't help but make the excuse that Russia is half a world away from where I reside, but on the other hand, the Internet has made it so easy for us …

You May Die in the Desert / Gifts from Enola – Harmonic Motion: Volume 1

Review — August 7, 2008

Harmonic Motion: Volume 1 is the start of a Differential Records series aiming to bring together like-sounding instrumental groups. The record starts off with "The Sound of Titans," a twelve minute atmospheric piece with several ups and downs in sound levels. For the most part, the song is more of …

You May Die in the Desert – Bears in the Yukon

Review — September 2, 2008

You May Die in the Desert is a three-piece, self-described as an "uplifting jazzy trio [that] combines chaotic guitar riffs with atmospheric layover techniques." With Bears in the Yukon, the group wastes no time with introductions. Within the opening twenty seconds, the opener's melody is in full swing, showing …

You Lose! – All In

Review — December 22, 2008

I guarantee of two things after you listen to All In from You Lose! First off, you'll never guess this band is from France. Secondly, you'll be amped up and ready to take on anything. This five-piece delivers six songs in just less than nine minutes of crunchy and thundering …

How Dare You – Comfort Road

Review — June 8, 2009

This is the second review that I've done from Fail Safe Records that involves at least one member from a 90's melodic hardcore band that I like. This time it's As Friends Rust, whom will probably go down in mix tape history by having the audacity of having a song …

The Number Twelve Looks Like You – Worse Than Alone

Review — July 16, 2009

The Number Twelve Looks Like You have always been a very unorthodox band to say the least. They've been trying something new with each album and it's no different with their latest album, Worse Than Alone. Pinning them to one genre is difficult because they incorporate so many different …

...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead – The Century of Self

Review — September 8, 2009

Texas rockers ...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead return with their sixth full-length effort, The Century of Self. The band's newest long player is the follow-up to So Divided, which was a polarizing album for their fans. Following the release of that album Trail of …

Nightmare of You – Infomaniac

Review — October 16, 2009

With the release of their self-titled debut in 2005 Nightmare of You made it a point to distance themselves from their post-The Movielife buzz and define their sound as something unique. The band's fusion of cool indie rock, Joy Division-inspired new wave, and Morrissey-like musings created quite a clamor with …

...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead – Tao Of The Dead

Review — February 21, 2011

…And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead are at their best when they are at their biggest, and Tao of the Dead is a big album. Don’t be fooled by the track list when you see a majority of the songs clocking in at two minutes. This …

You, Me, & Everyone We Know – Things Are Really Weird Right Now

Review — October 31, 2011

You, Me, & Everyone We Know came to my attention with the announcement of their break-up earlier this year. I didn't give them a listen until their post-humous EP, Things Are Really Weird Right Now. I was taken aback, as I wasn't expecting something as poppy as this from Topshelf …

PS I Love You – Death Dreams

Review — July 16, 2012

PS I Love You, the heartthrob of the Kingston, Ontario’s indie rock scene, had more than just high expectations placed upon them after the unexpected success of 2010’s Meet Me At The Muster Station. With critical praise and a tour schedule that stretched the world wide, the guitar/drum duo …

Godspeed You! Black Emperor – Allelujah! Don't Bend! Ascend!

Review — November 21, 2012

Sneaking an album out to the public regardless of the mass of information that seems to leak (including albums and other music related info) in this day and age seems completely fitting with regards to the first album in over ten years from Godspeed You! Black Emperor and their well …

...And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead – Lost Songs

Review — January 14, 2013

The past decade has been an artistic whirlwind for the Austin, TX …And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead. After hitting a peak with Source Tags and Codes in 2002, the band has since struggled with their identity and the heavy expectations from critics. Or at least …

Versus You – Moving On

Review — July 22, 2014

Despite a confrontational name, Versus You are every bit positive punx with songs praising friendship, relationships, and the like. It’s not that they play bubbly music countered with cynical lyrics, but they place peppy rock that’s further emphasized by sunny reflections over a gritty pop punk sound. The band is …
