Withered Hand – My Days
The first time I heard Withered Hand I was scrolling on YouTube looking for new music. Oh, I guess about a decade ago or so. I came across Religious Songs – an anti-ode to a religious upbringing seeped in wistful ruminations. As I listened I began to get chills that...

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds – Skeleton Tree
On Saturday, February 6th 2016 I was finally able to go see Black Sabbath in concert. I went with an old friend and had a blast posing with protesters, taking in the heavy metal music, and basically enjoying life. It was quite honestly a concert highlight for me, in a...

Paul Draper – EP One
When I think of the mid to late 90's era of Britpop, I gravitate towards a select few bands. Sure, I love Oasis, Blur, and Pulp. But my absolute favorite bands from the scene were the ones that were just a bit more slightly off kilter. Suede, Strangelove, My Life...
The Monkees – Good Times

Iggy Pop – Post Pop Depression
