History: From the vaults of Classic Victory Records comes Exposure by German hardcore band Thumb. Oh…Thumb….I love this album. Exposure was released back in 1997 and was a staple in my CD collection in high school. Being in my early [...]
This album is in my blood. I can feel its pulsing from somewhere deep inside my chest and its careening rush out to my extremities. It has saturated my morning walks to work, my afternoon returns, and my evening relaxations [...]
Somehow I don’t think that I am in Santigold’s target demo, but that didn’t stop me from being intrigued by her first Self Titled LP back when she was called Santogold. My wife came home one day and kept playing [...]

So I’m sitting on the porch of my hotel in Spain and I think to myself, what goes well with gin and lemonade? Why, rock of course. Thus began an intense hour of drinking, listening, and writing. I set out [...]
This is the album that I have been waiting to review. I like a lot of different bands, in a lot of different genres, but if I had to nail down a corner in the music spectrum that is [...]
