løenwulf - When We Fight [Review]

September 09, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Rap, Autotune

Rating: 4 out of 5

“Clean breaks are tough with affairs of the heart ,and ‘When We Fight’ captures the despair, desperation, and guarded hope of those emotions with a pair of vocals.

The first is sang with a beautiful vulnerability and the second is a flow delivered with more of a stoic indifference. This contrast is part of what captures the emotions of this situation so well.”

    The Titos - Better Day [Review]

    September 08, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Alternative

    Rating: 4.5 out of 5

    “Soulful rock and roll with some heavy Blues nuances help this single speak straight to the emotion of hope.

    ’Better Day’ is the kind of song to soak up drink in hand as you ponder all that is life.”

      Glostik Willy - Here We Go [Review]

      September 08, 2019 by Travis Erwin in Music, Alternative, Rock

      Rating: 4.5 out of 5

      “If you have been missing the hair band sound of the 80s, you will dig what Glostik Willy is doing with this old school ballad of a rock song.

      Close you eyes and you imagine Axle Rose swaying with the microphone pole, or Bon Jovi in tight leather pants if that is your thing, because this one will take you back in time..

      So good to know the true elements of rock and roll are still alive and flourishing today.”

                    “There are times where Elina’s vocals reminded me of Dolly Parton, though this is not a country song. Soft and tender, this pop single delivers emotion and a sense of longing sadness.

                            ’Razor Blade’ is an easy single to sit back and listen to while firing up, or sipping that drink. The groove is a smooth ride and the lyrics complex enough to provoke introspection.”

                                  Elodie Rêverie - Skeleton Castle [Review]

                                  “Elodie Reverie drops a dark and alluring single about heritage and passion for where she came from. Her sultry voice draws us in, adding to the mystery of the past.

                                  This is the kind of track that will lure you to the dance floor, yet is also engaging and reflective enough to warrant play while sitting alone and thinking about the ghosts of your own pasts with a bit of Scotch in hand.

                                  Reflective and entertaining, with elements of pop to give it just a hint of commercial texture in all the right places, ‘Skeleton Castle’ is a single with depth. ”

                                    “Mysterious intrigue lyrically, sexy thumping vocals, and dance beat that is hard to deny. ‘Siren’ is auditory spell luring you to the dance floor. ”

                                      “With a lot of soul, and a dash of pop fusion, Mentum delivers ‘You The One,’ a single that in the old days would be dedicated on radio shows and included on homemade mix tapes for the one you love. Now I suppose it will be added to playlists and played in the shadow of night as lovers collide.

                                      In other words, this is a smooth love song that hits the right notes musically and emotionally.”

                                        “These cats are slinking along that line between true punk, and rock and roll. And These cats do it very well.

                                        Sultry vocals and intriguing lyrics, along with a European vibe, morph together into an evocative single worth your time and ears.”
