If new wave from the 80’s and punk had a baby I’m pretty sure this would be the offspring. It evokes feelings I’ve not gotten from music since the songs of the 60’s. Yet the musical composition

Alexx Calise – Angel
Love the machine gun fire style intro with that backing keyboard. Oh lordy this chick has an amazing voice. It’s rich like your favorite chocolate cake, with just a touch of a cutting edge. It reminds
Michael Burk – The Voyage
I’m going to call this one ambient, maybe even soundtrack music. Since I have an appreciation for both I can comfortably say that this is a really good piece. The guitar work is really nice and understated.
Avery Davies – In Tall Buildings (cover)
I am not familiar with the original song here, just thought you should know.
O, wait… I just got Rick Rolled, for real. This guy’s voice is absolutely amazing but doesn’t seem like it should
The Lonesome Band – Love I’ve Never Known
I like the beat, it’s up tempo but almost lazy day quality. It’s that knocking sound! That’s what gives me that “kick-it-about-a-bit” feel, I really liked it. The vocals have me thinking this
The Penguin Party – Get Rich Or Try Dying
I like the funky beat in the intro. Oh man, it makes me think of some of the 80’s pop that I loved so much. You know like the British pop invasion bands. I love the vocals on this track, it’s not
Joy Valencia – Baby Doll
This is a really interesting and unique tune. Very heavy acoustic guitar work gives this tune the most awesome tone. The only thing better than that guitar line and sweet drum work is Joy’s amazing
Musical Pearls (Steve Neilson)/ This Side of Life – Born No Good
*This is not your ordinary review. Upon entering Musical Pearls I learned this is not a band, but a collection of stories set to music, sorta. It’s an interesting concept so I’ve decided I’m going
Legacy – Look Around
I really like that intro, it’s so dark and powerful. I have to admit it, I’m beginning to like some of rap. This one is really damn good. It’s got a really great “sway” beat. The guys got
Cross Wires – Vultures
This is so crazy! I got 2 punk songs in one day. I’m so happy now!! This is another great punk song that you can really get up and get crazy with. I love the retro sound thing they have going on.
The Unsatisfied – Apocalypse of Joan
OMG, it’s like some old school punk. And I mean old school, when the songs were about seeing your mommy dead and shit. I love the style of this song. It reminds me of everything I loved about college
Angele – Plz’d 2 meet U
I’m having some issues with this song. I like her voice and I like (for the most part) the lyrics. But the musical composition is a little off for me. I would love to hear her backed by a more traditional
Typeface – My Life
So I can’t help but think of some 80’s pop songs listening to this jam. Like something from a John Hughes movie. But I think it also has some things in common with some of the Queens of the Stone
gLife – Indy (Live at the Great Saltair)
This song made me smile at the beginning. No small feat for someone who isn’t known for their love of rap or hip hop. I’m really digging the flow though! That is some amazing rhyming right there
