REVIEW: Bad Suns – ‘Transpose’ EP

Artist: Bad Suns Album: Transpose EP Genre: Alternative-Pop There was a time where pop music didn’t do much for me. I cast catchy hooks aside for more rewarding pastures, I guess a lot of the hype just didn’t make sense to me. But, in an industry that can sometimes be polluted with egos, overconfidence, and […]

Tarynn Law’s ‘Best of 2013’ In Music

To say that 2013 has been one hell of a year for music would be, well, the understatement of the year. The music community has been #blessed with some awesome new bands that weren’t around (or hadn’t released anything) prior to 2013 and are now making massive waves, some of which are in my top […]

Kevin Blumeyer’s ‘Best of 2013’ in Music

More than anything, a person’s top 10 list is a snapshot of a year in their life.  For whatever reason, I felt particularly nostalgic this year.
