“Music” Archives

This is the new genre: micro-beat.

The best electronic pop money can buy?

If I look at the album’s high points, I could listen to a double album of that stuff.

Melodramatic dreaminess with more than just a hint of twee and shoegazer pop.

There is definitely warmth found throughout with the help of a soothing voice and lulling reverb.

Live: Roseland NYC reveals a band that not only puts out great albums, but puts on one heckuva live show.

My advice: don’t run away from this album, but listen to it before you buy it.

David Bazan’s songwriting has never been better than on this album but the emotional and spiritual depth feels strangely underwhelming.

Pedro the Lion’s songs practically drip with an intensity that would make most emo bands foam at the mouth.

Definitely one of the more inventive and interesting Christian releases I’ve heard in quite some time.

This band has captured the vibe and realness of ’70s R&B
