Featured Band
Review: Welcome To Ashley – Beyond The Pale
New album from local homeboys Welcome To Ashley is an instant classic.
Review: Makeshift Prodigy – Mathematica
Our hometown heroes Makeshift Prodigy make their glorious return with an album big on atmosphere and twinkle.
Review: Alkaline Trio – This Addiction
Assault’s favorite band releases a new record; we shit our pants. Oswald Hobbes explains why.
Chicago Rock: The Delivery Boys
You know when you get a song stuck in your head, that you can’t remember who it was cause you’ve been listening to music non-stop for 2 days, and yet there’s still one song that stands out amongst the crowd? That’s how I will forever remember The Delivery Boys…
The Swellers
After undergoing numerous lineup changes and the usual amount of toil and trouble, these guys seem to be on the cusp of breaking out and getting the recognition they deserve.
Review: Brand New – Daisy
Daisy is a rare beast in the oft-uninspiring alternative rock genre. It can clobber and caress in equal measures, and at no point does the band consider those qualities mutually exclusive.
The next Fallout Boy? Chicago’s The Alumni Club has what it takes
It’s not too often that I get to plug bands before most people find out about them simply because there aren’t that many that are pluggable, but I think I may have found one that’s plugworthy…
From the Broken
From the Broken, a new local Chicago band, have released a 3 song EP, and are playing in your neighborhood this summer.
Seven Day Sonnet
The most talented unsigned band I’ve seen since Brand New and Thrice.
