Do Make Say Think – You, You're a History in Rust
Review — August 6, 2007
Instrumental music, I've found, requires patience to fully appreciate it. Sitting through detached, quiet parts of songs is by no means difficult, but it can definitely test a listener's musical patience.

Do Make Say Think – Stubborn Persistent Illusions
Review — June 26, 2017
Do Make Say Think have left their stamp on the post-rock scene, starting from their debut, self-titled album, released in 1998, to the excellent Other Truths in 2009. It was with Other Truths that the band decided to take a break, never officially breaking up, but rather the individual members …

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah – Some Loud Thunder
Review — May 8, 2007
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah had a lot of pressure on them for their second album, mainly due to them being the most hyped up band of 2005. Their story was one told over and over ever since their first album came out: five indie rockers out of Brooklyn that …
Our Final Say – Same Mistakes
Review — July 3, 2005
The state of a Connecticut certainly has a grasp on the whole posi-hardcore revival trend that is sweeping the hardcore nation. Despite the state's minute size, it is home to one of the powerhouses of the trend - With Honor as well as the equally as impressive The Distance and …
