Black Smoke Trigger - Album Review: Horizons
14 Aug 2024 // review by Karl Brinsdon
Horizons by Black Smoke Trigger is a great album to listen to all the way through and with every listen I notice something new.

Parallel Park - Album Review: Growing Taller
24 May 2024 // review by Karl Brinsdon
Growing Taller from Parallel Park is a very interesting listen. To call it indie pop rock is like putting it into an existing box when it’s something unique that deserves to proudly stand alone.

Such an instrument is more common in genres that don’t have the same edge as your typical alternative rock track, but when the bass and drums kick in after the first phrase suddenly the listener is transported away from acoustic folk to something much grungier.

Tablefox - Single Review: Mother
09 Feb 2023 // review by Karl Brinsdon
Tablefox’s latest track, Mother is an example of everything that modern rock music should be; a great performance that makes use of modern production technologies without becoming overproduced. Finding a good place to start talking about Mother is truly a challenge as with every listen it seems that I notice something new about the track.
