Given that Motion City Soundtrack and Say Anything found popularity around the same time in the mid-2000s, I really shouldn’t be that surprised that these two teamed up for a co-headlining tour, but I was! It was a pleasant surprise!

Bad Suns – Accelerator, Album Review
With K-Pop dominating my life, and I don’t see that it will ever stop, it means I was really slow to the punch on new music from other artists I’ve loved for such a long time.

Given that it’s been five years since their last full length release, I really had no clue when Bear Hands would ever make new music again. But to my great joy, they’ve recently released The Key to What – yay!

What better way to celebrate my birthday than with a concert?! Technically, Inhaler was in town the day before my birthday, but still.
Read moreAWOLNATION – The Phantom Five, Album Review
I suppose I will blame an extremely busy summer for slacking on listening to new releases, but I also feel as though they all came out around the same time. With that, I’ve started getting into them with AWOLNATION’s latest, The Phantom Five.
