I always seem to distract myself and then cram in a bunch of new(er) music all at once. That’s exactly what happened with Anberlin’s new EP, Convinced.

New Music – Singles Edition!
There have been so many new songs released over the past few weeks and I have been seriously slacking on checking them out. Thus, you get a bunch all at once. Go check these out for yourselves!
Read moreThe Pink Spiders – FREAKAZOID!, Album Review
I have had The Pink Spiders on rotation in my life since Teenage Graffiti came out, but this is the first time I’ve returned to new music from them in earnest. I know there was a bit of a rocky history as far as permanent members went beyond lead singer Matt Friction, so I’d say that’s the reason I never quite stayed current with them.
Read moreQueens of the Stone Age – In Times New Roman…, Album Review
How are we getting so lucky with so much good new music?! The rare gifts of the pandemic are still plenty it seems, and I’m not complaining. It’s been six years since Queens of the Stone Age have released new music, but they sure managed to deliver with In Times New Roman…
Read moreAvenged Sevenfold – Life Is but a Dream…, Album Review
Even though I’ve seen this well-regarded metal band live twice in my life, I think this is the first album of theirs that I’ve actually listened to in full.

Even though I just saw the Foo Fighters a few weeks ago, I couldn’t bring myself to immediately listen to their latest record, But Here We Are, coming just slightly over a year after the passing of the band’s longtime drummer, Taylor Hawkins. Then I learned that Dave Grohl’s mother passed a month after Taylor and I knew I was going to be in for a gut-punch of a record.
Read moreThe Used – Toxic Positivity, Album Review
All hail to the emo band from my youth! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen The Used over the years, but several of their records remain my favorites to this day. With that being said, a lot of their newer material hadn’t really made it into my radar until their latest, Toxic Positivity, was announced.
Read moreGhost – Phantomime EP Review
I guess not all that long ago Ghost promised new music by the time they were set to head back to the EU for the second leg of their tour. Turns out that new music was an EP full of cover songs! I love a good cover song and I can assure you this is some good, good stuff.

2023 is the gift that keeps on giving when it comes to new music. I am here for it!
Read moreFoxy Shazam – Dark Blue Night, Album Review
Somehow, Foxy Shazam released a whole new album at the end of March and I didn’t even know about it! That makes me feel like a bad fan. But, I found it now, and I can tell you that Dark Blue Night is a treat.
