Stellastarr

Somewhere across forever (single)

Tiswas records

The vocals are great. This band sounds like a punk band but they also sound too happy to be your standard punk band.

Callisto

Providence

Fullsteam records

The vocals are beyond awful most of the time and awesome at other times. A lot of the music sounds random. There are some good parts but not enough. This band needs to try harder.

Madina Lake

Attics to Eden

Roadrunner records

The first half of this album is pretty decent. The later half goes off in a fizzle. The keyboards are the best part of this album; everything else is ok. The good parts of this album are really good but, there isn't enough for me to

tell anyone to go get this album.

Monsters are Waiting

Fascination

Retone records

The bass is really good. The vocals are good. The drums are decently done. This band has a decent almost punk sound.

The Dangerous Summer

Reach for the sun

Hopeless records

The terrible vocals over power the mediocre and very repetitive guitar riffs.

The drums are ok but they could be better. This is another band that sounds too

much like blink 182, I don't like it.

Tantric

Mind control
Silent majority group

I don't like the tantric songs I have heard on the radio. I thought I would give  this band a chance with what I have heard others saying about them but I was wrong. I don't like any of it.

Echo us

The tide decides

Muse parallele

Elevator music sprinkled with a few heavy guitar riffs and something else I can't quite put my finger on. Fans of Phil Collins might enjoy this one.

Robert Gomez

Pine sticks and phosphorus

Nova posta

The vocals are very weak,the music is slow and uninspiring. If you have a baby that you're trying to put to bed; play this album and he will be asleep in no time.

Globes on Remote

The woo-Hoo-Hoo

No record label (self released)

Good brass section, decent vocals, ok guitar riffs, and awesome electronic eight bit sound effects. I normally don't like this style of music but; there is something interesting about them.

28 Degrees Taurus

How do you like your love?

No record label (self released)

The female vocals would sound great if they had more power behind them. The drums are lackluster and the guitar fails to impress. The bass lines are decent when they are actually audible.

Scott Pinkmountain & The Golden Bolts of Tone

The Full sun

Howells Transmitter

Too slow too jazzy. I don't like it but someone with a softer taste in music will. On a side note there are some decent drums.

The Gothsicles

Sega Lugosi's Dead

WTII Records

The vocals are awesome. The drums are impressive and the synthesizers are great.This band isn't like other goth bands; their music is too fast, the lyrics are high pitched and keep up with the rest of the music, it's goth but different and I like it.

West Indian Girl

4th & wall

Milan Records

The bass lines are great. The drums don't impress but do their job. Guitar riffs

are basic yet have something beautiful about them. The vocals are weak. This

album sounds like what you relax to, if you're looking for music that motivates

look somewhere else.

Human Aftertaste

Eat our meat

Octopoid productions

The singer sounds like Dr. Frankenfurter. There are some awesome guitar riffs. The drums are decent sometimes and horrible the next. This album doesn't have enough for me to recommend buying it, but there are some good ideas at work. I have a feeling that this bands next album will be better.

Jeff Wagners Tunnel of Love

An Eternity of Blood
Glorious Alchemical records

This is a strange album. One track kind of sounds like swing music, another track has a lot of heavy metal influence, then you have a jazz sounding track followed by a track that sounds industrial. The singers voice is annoying, if you can look past that the music itself is pretty good on the majority of the tracks.
