Let me start out by saying that Eternal Essence absolutely rocks. This is so good, I have to grab my pair of Sennhiser headphones for another listen while I write. My initial impression of this band was that it was heavily influenced by Dream Theater. You [...]

This one man band, namely Guy chambers, from the UK is too much. The sound effects are eerie, the beat is hypnotic, and the overall feel is like being drug underground and left in a dark cement walled tunnel with the echoes still bouncing around in your head to prove [...]

This week I stumbled across a group named Thyateira, a curious band from Crystal Lake, Illinois. I’m going to be honest with you right up front. I have rather mixed feelings about this band (whose name I assume comes from the fourth church of the book of [...]

Normally, I’m used to bands like Operatika having a male singer fronting the group. Forget that! Definitely better sounding with a woman fronting the band. Seriously, you’re going to want to give the volume knob on your stereo a turn to that Spinal Tap #11 for Slava Popova’s memorable vocals. [...]

After listening to this band, you might want to talk your pastor into booking them to play at your next church function. Okay, that might be a little too much for the old blue haired folks who sleep in the back rows. The reality is that Theocracy [...]

Eventually, the bug is going to bite and you are going to want to enhance your guitar sound with pitch shifting and harmonizer effects. Of course, if you are a normal human being, you won’t likely be able to afford an Eventide Harmonizer. But, even if you [...]

Maybe this is a sign. The second band from Florida I’m reviewing in a row. Actually, I had never heard of them before, but someone sent me an email and told me to check Megaphone out. I always take my talent scout’s requests seriously, and so I dropped on to [...]

BAND: MATADOR
TYPE OF MUSIC: Indie Alternative Rock
ATOMIC RATING: 5 Mushroom Clouds
I was having a really rough morning the other day, wading through a ton of audio crap and otherwise mediocre bands, when I stumbled upon the music of Matador. As usual, myspace was slow to respond and acted [...]
