American Goner -Lula

American Goner

American Goner is a Indie Raleigh North Carolina Alternative Rock n Roll band. American Goner has great very creative lyrics and music that reminds me of the alternative rock band Seven Mary Three, it's very evident in the song "In The End We Were All We Ever Really Had." from their album Lula. I America Goner has great potential and I hope they will keep moving forward and put out more music. Check Out American Goner and spread the word about them.

Iron Chic - My Best Friend (Is a Nihilist)

Iron Chic is a decent Punk Band from Long Island NY that play songs that are acceptable. Your probably thinking ,"Mike your a jerk for saying Iron Chic plays acceptable songs." Yes, I'm in total agreement if I didn't read it from the Iron Chic own site description. In my honest opinion Iron Chic is fantastic punk band with superb melodic power, weaved with exquisite emotional lyrics with a hint rebellion.

Check out Iron Chic song "My Best Friend (is a Nihilist") in their latest video from their upcoming album, "You Can't Stay Here" released in October 13, 2017 by SideOneDummy Records.

Berthold City- Moment of Truth Demo '17

Berthold City is a Hardcore Straight Edge Band from Los Angeles,Ca I found out about this band from following RevHQ and War Records on twitter. Berthold City- Moment of Truth Demo '17 has so much power that it gets your blood pumping with full of excitement. Berthold City reminds of the band "Chain Of Strength" another Straight Edge Band from Southern California. I hope Berthold City will turn their Moment Of Truth Demo into a full length album, and hopefully it 'll spark a resurgence of the L.A. Straight Edge Punk subculture.

Check Berthold City latest song from their Moment Of Truth Demo titled ENOUGH!

Fashion Week - Even When The Sun Goes Down

Fashion Week is an Alternative band from Columbus OH. I was given the opportunity to listen to their latest song titled "Scars" yet to be release. Fashion Week did an amazing job with "Scars" it's a very catchy tune with kick ass lyrics -it reminds me of Caged The Elephant meets Imperial Teen. I hope Fashion Week will release "Scars" to the public soon, but until then here is another fantastic song from Fashion Week called "Even When The Sun Goes Down" From their 2016 E.P. titled "Murfreesboro", take a listen and spread the word.

Brian McGrath - Robinson Woods

Brian McGrath is a singer songwriter from Chicago,IL that performs Americana/Folk music. In his latest video- performing his song, "Robinson Woods," from his latest album The Woods Are Burning, Brian McGrath has an iconic sound that's reminds me of "The Man in Black,'' Johnny Cash and Steve Earle. I hope to see Brian McGrath on a bigger platform with a record label backing him. Oops did I say record label?

Haunted Like Human - River (Come Back Up)

A few months ago, more like back in late July, I wrote about Haunted Like Human and how the indie duo from Nashville, TN sounded like certain musicians, and I must humbly disagree with myself. Haunted Like Human is much much more, after listen to the song" River (Come Back Up)" the first single off from their debut album, Ghost Stories- Haunted Like Human is poetically soulful has the potential to being a major indie-folk act with the likes of Ani Difranco and Elliot Smith.
