From what we’ve heard so far, Canyons and Locusts is of the mind that you don’t wanna overstay your welcome when it comes to song length and that leave while the part is still poppin’ mentality prevails once again on newest single “Soo All The Way”.
[Read more…]Singles! Tysk Tysk Task, “Intolerable”
It’s too early to have a “Song Of The Year”, right? How about “Song Of The Year” contender? Because Lowell’s Tysk Tysk Task just upped the game and their game considerably with what they’re about to drop.
[Read more…]Singles! The Roland High Life, “Old Atlantic”
If you were not aware, The Roland High Life is BACK! Following last year’s introspective “Scotty Says”, The Boston-based band returns with what TRHL’s Thom Dunn describes as an “accidental stadium rock banger” and we couldn’t agree more!
[Read more…]Singles! Wyn & The White Light, “Can the World Change”
Not really an anti-Holiday jam but more the antithesis for those who need it during what is a trying time for many, the newest single from Wyn & The White Light is a somber soliloquy (Believe it or not, that’s not the first time we’ve used that alliteration this week) chronicling an especially difficult period during the Christmas season in response to a challenge from Ben Folds at a songwriting retreat. Following the singles released so far and now with “Can the World Change”, what Wyn & The White Light is conjuring currently in advance of their upcoming debut album (Due in March) is altogether something special to collectively behold.
[Read more…]23 For ’23… But Locally! Or “23 MA-Based Bands (And Then Some) You Should Already Be Listening To”
We initially decided to do this in order to alleviate some of the stress of that other ’23 list we have going on but then we cut out the local stuff and decided to go through our archives for the year and what stood out of what we reviewed/featured that came out of Massachusetts…. and came up with an even more massive list. In other words, oops?
[Read more…]Singles! Vinyl Station, “Here Comes Your Ghost”
You know when you hear something for the first time and can kinda tell that it’s going to be huge? That’s “Here Comes Your Ghost” from Phoenix’s Vinyl Station readying an introduction that’s destined to be bigger than the mighty pachyderm that graces the single cover artwork.

[Read more…]Singles! Disconnected Souls, “Last Christmas”
Maybe we’re getting soft in our old age or maybe Xmas music is actually getting better??? Nahhhh… that can’t be it. How about we go with this: The artists that are making the Xmas music, whether originals or covers, are getting better. Which brings us to Disconnected Souls. We know! You read the words “Disconnected” and “Souls” together and you immediately think holiday cheer, right? And then you see that the DS sound is billed as “Cinematic Metal” and instantly think “Hey! who better to cover the WHAM! holiday classic than this quintet?” Well, that’s what the fans did indeed want for Christmas and that’s just what they’re getting for being good little boys and girls all year… or maybe they were naughty depending on how you look at it?
[Read more…]Singles! SWTEVL, “Monochrome”
Flexing their genre-crossing chops in anticipation of their upcoming debut double album (Very Truly Yours, arriving on December 15th), SWTEVL unveil another side of the new joint from Tairrie B. and Mick Murphy that’s not so much a departure from first single “Hellzapoppin'” (Read our review of that here) as it is a new dynamic in this big, bold aural odyssey that’s only just begun.
