Some of the clearest and most rewarding art comes from taking stock in what you’ve created before, refining and uncovering the best parts, and remarking on the growth that control has given your work. For New Jersey’s Sleep In., each successive release has marked a step in this process. Their debut, Settling, was an angular indie record, in debt to math rock and classic emo’s chaotic arrangements.

Trade Wind--the indie rock project featuring members of Stick To Your Guns and Stray From The Path--has returned, announcing their upcoming sophomore full-length, Certain Freedoms. The album is due out April 26th from Other People Records (North America) and End Hits Records (EU/UK), and the band have also revealed "No King But Me" the record's first single. Certain Freedoms marks a significant sonic evolution for Trade Wind with the band diving headfirst into more melodic territory than ever before.
I’m not saying Peppermint is a great movie but man, some of the reviews out there are even more savage than the killings in this run-of-the-mill revenge flick. As I’m writing this, Peppermint scores 12% on Rotten Tomatoes, a score it shares with such atrocities as the Fifty Shades Of Grey trilogy, Pink Panther 2 and Taken 3. The latter of which happens to be another movie by Pierre Morel, the French director who was also responsible for From Paris With Love and The Transporter.
