Be Your Own Pet Meets the Sophmore Cursenew
With Get Awkward, the band's songs are still bracing and efficient and singer Jemina Pearl is still an unhinged, full-throttle screamer who's unashamed to make a shouted "WHOOO!" part of a chorus.

The Baby-faced Wunderkinds of Black Tidenew
With their major-label debut, Miami's baby-faced heavy metal savants Black Tide have produced an introduction that should provide the critical mass needed to unleash the hurricane that's been stirring Florida’s music scene for the past few years.

The Mad World of Miami's Torchenew
The blistering guitar work, the sludge-thick riffs, the hulkingly muscular rhythm section, even the hooks that eschew anthemic power for melodic effectiveness, make a listener feel like a meerkat in the middle of a mammoth stampede: It’s coming, it’s fast, and it will crush you.

Lyfe Jennings Emerges Out of His Demons with Assurednessnew
With Lyfe Change, Jennings finally finds his true self by embracing and owning his bipolar persona. The frantic peaks and valleys are in the past, and his hesitation to cement a signature sound no longer plays as inexperienced timidity but confident experimentation.

Music Vs. Messagenew
The Oaks donated half of the proceeds of their debut album to the Global Hope Network for aid to returning Afghan refugees. But by pushing that agenda as forcefully as they did, a moral dilemma was imposed on the evaluation of the Oaks' art.
