Album Review: Spectrums by Odonis Odonis

Spectrums is a brand new electronic indie pop album from Odonis Odonis. This is their first full album in five years and fifth overall. This is a stellar album for anyone interested in more darkwave sounding music. Think the vocal texture of The National mixed with the electronic instrumentation of someone like Django Django. Their […]

Album Review: “Another Night on the Astral Plane” by ORNAMENT AND CRIME

Another Night on the Astral Plane is the musical debut of indie duo ORNAMENT AND CRIME. This EP also features the vocal stylings of Virginia Palms. This is a solid debut. A great foundation that also can be greatly improved upon for the years to come as they experiment and release more music. These songs […]

Album Review: “I Want the Door to Open” by Lala Lala

I want the door to open is the latest album from alternative artist Lala Lala. This album is a bit on the shorter side with a runtime of about 32 minutes. “Diver” is the lead single of this album and it served as a great introduction to the album a few months prior to its […]

Album Review: “Good Morning It’s Now Tomorrow” by Matt Maltese

Hey, “We Need To Talk”. This new Matt Maltese LP is “Looking” to be a shining star on the alternative map. “You Deserve an Oscar” if you can pretend not to like this album. Now, if any of these puns just made you cringe so much that your hairs stood up, then this album may […]

Album Review: Nightmare Daydream by The Velveteers

Nightmare Daydream is the first studio album from the Colorado indie punk rock band The Velveteers. Previously having only released a handful of singles, their music eventually made its way to Dan Auerbach, the lead guitarist and vocalist for the Black Keys, who invited them to Nashville to record an album under his production.  The […]

Album Review: “Mercurial World” by Magdalena Bay

Mercurial World is a newly released indie pop album that includes soft vocals and a heavy pop, techno instrumental. The soft vocals allow for a more mellow tone to the album while the heavier more upbeat instrumental gives the album more of a true pop sound. Track number 1 “The End” is a spoken track […]

Album Review: “Modern Fiction” by Ducks Ltd.

Ducks Ltd. (pronounced “limited”) used to be called Ducks Unlimited, until a non-profit organization dealing in waterfowl with the same title forced the name change. I feel like their debut LP, Modern Fiction is their answer to such a heinous crime of a name change, because this album overall is anything but limited. The young […]

Album Review: “True Love” by Hovvdy

Hovvdy is an appropriate name for an indie group based out of Austin, Texas. Their music is a laid-back, alternative mix that provides the perfect showcase for the lead singer’s accented voice. True Love is the fourth studio album since their debut, Taster in 2017. It’s a relaxing, indie album that finds a middle ground […]
