The least you can say about this band from Alaska (now residing in Oregon) is that they don’t waste time.

After a couple of very cool releases, The Hope Conspiracy went on a hiatus only to strike back even harder with 2006’s “Death Knows Your Name”.

Soul Control never planned to release a full-length but a label deal with Bridge 9 changed those plans which is how come we now have “Cycles” to gush over.

I was kinda scared what the new album was gonna sound like after having seen them live.

Let’s get right to the point… “Constellations” is an even better album than 2007’s “Messengers”. On what is already August Burns Red’s third album, everything is bigger, faster and more technical.

Most of the time reunions are an attempt to relive some of a band’s glory days. Maybe a band will even record a new album, which will not nearly be as good as their older material.

Five masked Japanese dudes? That has got to make for some weird shit!

After his amazing solo album “Feast Or Famine” and the album he did with Austin Lucas, Chuck Ragan is back already with “Gold Country”.

On their latest album All Time Low simply keep on doing what they’ve been doing on their past releases… crank out catchy, radio- and kid-friendly poppunk songs that owe a lot the American Rejects,

Now that Juliette Lewis is off to Roadrunner Records, Hassle could use another female-fronted rock n roll act to fill the void.
