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!

Concert Review: Inhaler
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.
Read moreConcert Review: The Beaches
After catching The Beaches open for a show almost exactly three years ago, I’ve been trying and trying to see them again. It’s very rare that an opening band catches my attention, and it’s even more rare for me to like female bands.
Read moreConcert Review: The Linda Lindas
In the midst of their tour opening for Green Day, The Linda Lindas found some time in their schedule to play a dedicated show for the Cleveland audience! I found it a little funny that this was apparently their fifth time in the state in barely over a month. I’m sure they’re excited to not come back for a hot minute.

I suppose it has been almost exactly two whole years since the release of Bad Suns’ last full length record, Apocalypse Whenever, but to me it’s felt like no time at all! One could also see the desire to make new music now that they are just a three-piece. I don’t believe there was any bad blood with Ray Libby’s departure, but I’m sure there was a desire to see what they could create in this new form.
Read moreBlink-182 – One More Time…, Album Review
Full disclosure, this may be the only Blink 182 record I have ever listened to in full. I know! What have I been doing for the other eight?! Not listening. Except for the singles that popped off on mainstream radio. Those, I heard. And they were great! But One More Time… seemed to hold some extra significance, so that’s why it made the cut.
Read moreFan Art Friday: Jeff Satur
I mean look, of all the BL actors that have graced my screen since the summer, Jeff Satur remains the most stunning. So of course I had to draw him again. I know a lot of new music is on the horizon, so I hope there is also a US tour at some point. I’d be willing to travel for sure.
