REVIEW: Eric Church – Chief
August 10th, 2011 James Shotwell Artist: Eric Church Album: Chief Genre: Alt-Country Label: EMI Many people are quick to misjudge me, for whatever reason they think I’m just another angry metal kid, that thinks all other music is inferior, I’m not quite sure what makes people think that, maybe it’s all the tattoos, or possibly the fact that, all said, I […]

April 19th, 2011 James Shotwell Okay, we lied, Meg & Dia have not covered Taylor Swift (as far as we know). However, a new video online does show Dia Frampton covering T. Swift’s “Mean” and that’s close enough for us! Click below to experience a much more mature sounding rendition of “Mean” and be sure to comment with your thoughts!

May 14th, 2009 James Shotwell Artist: Tumbledown Album: Tumbledown Genre: Folk Punk Label: End Sounds Side projects are risky business. Sometime they soar and more times than not, they fail. A positive example would be Postal Service, and a not so good side project would be John and Yoko. I get the desire to try something different, but it doesn’t […]
