I feel like it’s been too long since I reviewed new music, but I haven’t really been in the mood to listen to new albums (new to me anyways) all the way through at the moment. Lucky for me, some great bands have released new songs and it’s definitely got me excited for their upcoming albums (and hopefully, tours!).

Slipknot – The End, So Far Album Review
I was truly very surprised with how little time passed between Slipknot’s last album, We Are Not Your Kind and their new effort The End, So Far. Really though, the internet told me it has been almost four years, but boy has the pandemic made time speed past me, apparently.

That’s right, in a year stuffed to the brim with live music, seeing Foals last night was the last hoorah of 2022. But what a way to end it!
Read moreBad Omens – The Death of Peace of Mind, Album Review
Since I was going to be seeing Bad Omens over this past weekend, I figured I should give their latest album, The Death of Peace of Mind a full run-through. I knew a couple of older singles thanks to my sister, but in looking at the set lists from other shows on the tour, this new album was going to be featured heavily.

Sad to say, but seeing Bad Omens is the penultimate concert I have lined up for 2022.
Read moreInhaler – It Won’t Always Be Like This, Album Review
Well, nothing like listening to an album almost a year and a half after it was initially released. Time is a black hole and it definitely hasn’t felt like that much time has passed. In any case, I’m finally listening to Inhaler’s debut album, It Won’t Always Be Like This a mere four months before their sophomore effort hits the shelves.
Read morePhoenix – Alpha Zulu, Album Review
I think this might be the longest stretch of time Phoenix has gone without releasing a new record. It’s been almost six years since there last full-length effort, but now, after all that time, we finally get Alpha Zulu!
Read moreRed Hot Chili Peppers – Return of the Dream Canteen, Album Review
It’s always quite a shock when a band announces they are going to drop two full-length album in the same year. I felt not less shocked when the Red Hot Chili Peppers announced Return of the Dream Canteen was going to drop just a couple of days before I was due to see them live at Austin City Limits.
Read moreConcert Review: AFI
It’s been over four years since I’ve seen AFI in concert, and frankly, that’s just too long! But after seeing this tour rescheduled from last year it finally happened, and it was incredible. Just like they always are.
Read moreFan Art Friday: AFI, Pt 2
You get a part 2 this week because I get to see AFI live and in person TONIGHT! I am so excited. It’s probably been a good four or five years since I saw them last, and you bet I’ll be trying to work my way to the front. Stay tuned, but for now enjoy this other woodblock painting I did many moons ago.
