CD Review- The Van Gobots - Self Titled

By Brett Reese The Van Gobots rev up the sound in their high energy, self titled album. This band offers more than just a clever name, bringing forth a high energy, hard rock sound “The Van Gobots” is short and sweet, but it doesn’t disappoint.

CD Review - Haley Bonar - Big Star

By Tammy Reese Some musicians can only dream about becoming megastars like Beyonce or Britney Spears, but perhaps the dream isn’t to become ultra-hip but just to become a “Big Star.”

CD Review - Zoo Animal - Youngblood

By Brandon Henry Zoo Animal’s Youngblood is start to finish an indie/folk gem. The ten songs on the record have a stripped down less-is-more swagger that mixes singer/songwriter simplicity and garage grunge-rock. Cleverly penned lyrics resonate with an old-timey drawl over a sparse crystalline electric guitar that’s rife with hypnotic pop grooves.

CD Review - Zebulon Pike - Intranscience

By Andrew Flanagan Zebulon Pike get a lot of King Crimson comparisons, probably stemming from one clever critic’s comparison which spidered it’s way through the web and into literally every review of these guys. I’m here to put an end to that. They are neither as psych, vocalized, experimental or melodic as King Crimson.
