Forsake It All - Endless Lens ep
This is my third time reviewing Forsake It All. I must say, without a doubt, they have improved. With their latest release, Endless Lens, they have shown vast signs of maturity with their song writing process and creativity. Even though they continue to sift through line up changes(even up untill... Continue reading

We haven't gotten much snow here in Colorado. It's going to be a dry summer if we don't get some moisture. I'm already getting dandruff!
Winter is here!
Happiest Winter Solstice to you dear friends! Love, Rachel
Leftmore - Dog Catcher
Here is a simple record that has a lot of heart. The more I listen to this album, the more I like it! While attending the cd release show for Dog Catcher at The Blacksheep in Colorado Springs, I was handed my copy of this album. I was pleasantly bewildered... Continue reading

Onward to Olympus - Indicator
Onward to Olympus releases their third Facedown release, "Indicator." These guys have always been heavy and have always worked hard on writing good music.

War of Ages Return To Life with Album Number Five
War of Ages continues their quest to conquer mediocre Christianity by writing good-heavy music and filling the night with sweaty-energetic-circle pits! Needless to say, these guys are definitely not on cruise control. Their live shows are roudy and creates the perfect atmosphere for stage diving and circle pit action. Their... Continue reading

SHPRO: Giving Music a New Image
Very seldom do you meet someone with a job as unique as Scott Hansen's. Working with musicians while conjuring music video treatments, pouring fake blood into a bathtub, urging fear into an actor, and capturing it on camera to keep a viewer on the edge of their seat. Scott Hansen,... Continue reading

Captors: an Album That Matters!
Wow!...and for a moment I thought their debut ep "We Are The Ones" would be all we were going to hear from Dayton, Ohio's Wolves At The Gate! It looks like they are here to stay!

MyChildren MyBride-Self titled release
MyChildren MyBride are still heavy and sludgie, but their riffs have gotten a little creepier! For a brief moment, the intro song makes me think I am listening to Sing The Sorrow by AFI(which is one of my favorite albums) untill the heaviness emerges! The album artwork, in itself, illustrates... Continue reading

Sent By Ravens- Mean What You Say
I am convinced by this point, even on their second album, that Sent By Ravens has their style figured out. They won't seem to budge from it, not even the tiniest bit! I will admit, they have gotten better! Their style is still the same but it is at a... Continue reading

The Dangerous Summer- War Paint
If this album had been released in 1997, it would have gone gold. Nonetheless War Paint by The Dangerous Summer has had a significant effect on me. It has crawled under my scalp and built its nest there, like a good album does for its listener. This album feels like... Continue reading
