We are just having fun reviewing and discussing comic books, graphic novels, manga, anime/animation, music and movies that we have recently read, listened to or watched.
For all of the music videos that we have spotlighted
Parker Harrison is sharing with the ComicPop listeners his single “Love Changes (Everything)” “Love Changes” is from his upcoming EP Clear Conscience, which will be released May 16. With “Love Changes” is clearly a homage to the Summer feel good songs of the 1970’s. With being a child of the ’70’s this hits my wheel house perfectly. Have fun listening to “Love Changes (Everything)”, through SoundCloud, and give Parker you support come May 16 with his Clear Conscience EP release – Richard
The single “Talk’ from The Manimals starts out slow and makes you think you are going to get a ballad, but then the band kicks it in high gear and shifts to an almost Punk Rock beat. During the middle of the song the rhythm slows again for dramatic effect and then kicks it again. The music video that The Manimals’ are sharing with ComicPop listeners is what I would call an off the grid dance/party themed video. Here is “Talk”, from their album Seven inspired from their love of Game of Thrones, through Haley Bowery’s YouTube channel for you to check out – Richard:
Anna Rose is with us again and this time she is sharing her latest single “Bury Me Deep” from her upcoming Strays In The Cut EP. Anna delivers another solid performance, she just has one of those haunting voices. Below are some of her tour dates and if she is in your area be sure to hit her up for a live session, but for now here is Anna Rose’s “Bury Me Deep” through SoundCloud – Richard:
TOUR DATES:
Bencoolen is sharing with the ComicPop listeners the title track off their upcoming album In Color. “In Color” is a mix of several different styles that meshes well. The opening is unexpected and you think big band, but then it goes into a catchy rhythm. Just by listening, in this single they has a Spanish influence. The catchy rhythm really makes your head bob to the music and is fun to listen to, check out ‘In Color” through SoundCloud and give Bencoolen some support on May 12, when their album drops – Richard:
“Down by the Water’s Edge” is one that went straight to my sweet spot. Why you may ask? Ben de la Cour, at least with this single, has the stylings of The Highwaymen. If you don’t know of the Highwaymen it was a group of country western singers that were kind of on the fringes of country music, they were Johnny Cash, Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson, and Waylon Jennings. I always loved their style when they where together or on their own and I think Ben has tapped into that same vibe. The music video that Ben is sharing with us for “Down by the Water’s Edge” is also something I can see the Highway Men doing as well. So if you like the Highwaymen you will dig Ben de la Cour’s “Down by the Water’s Edge” from his upcoming album Midnight in Havana. Thanks to Ben for sharing his music video through his YouTube channel – Richard:
Fly Never Dies is sharing with the ComicPop listeners their single “Love and The Stars.” The single features Casey Shea and is from their just released EP by the same name The Love and The Stars. This single has a electro/pop feel and then shifts into hip hop for it’s chorus. Towards the end the intertwine the two styles which brings out a cool effect. “Love and the Stars” has a feel good quality to it that you will enjoy. And how many songs feature a wood block as an instrument, unless that is an electronic sound effect sometimes it’s hard to tell, but still a wood block was an interesting choice. Check out Fly Never Dies single “Love and The Stars” through SoundCloud and then look up their EP to download – Richard:
Talk Like Tigers is sharing with the ComicPop listeners their single “Gunning”. Talk Like Tigers comes to us by jumping the pond. They bring with them their Electro/Pop stylings that will get you up and moving with the beat. I can easily see this in a night club with people dancing to it. “Gunning” has an intense beat that, as stated, will get your body moving. Check it out through the bands SoundCloud account – Richard
Alexis Babini is giving the ComicPop listeners a fun song to enjoy entitled “Lets Get Stoned”. “Lets Get Stoned” has a great base beat and Alexis has a nice clear voice. For looking like sure a clean cut gentleman Alexis’ subject matter and language will surprise some listeners. Looking at it as just a piece of music this single has a very catchy beat and a fun chorus for it’s hook that you can’t help but smile and sing along with. Check out Alexis Babini’s, “Lets Get Stoned” music video that he is sharing through his YouTube channel and just relax and have fun – Richard:

Kelly Paige is sharing, with the ComicPop listeners, her lyric music video to her power ballad “Get You Down”. Kelly is hitting a home run with this bluesy/rock single that just gets your body moving. I love the message as well…and it doesn’t necessarily apply to women. No one should let anyone get them down. If it isn’t happening in a relationship move on to better days. Great single from Kelly, so check out the lyric video, for “Get You Down”, through her YouTube channel – Richard:
The Slovaks is sharing with our listeners their single “Meditate”. Don’t let the title fool you though. This is a hard rocking song that will get your blood pumping. For those of you that need that jump start to your day this song will help you out. The music video is pretty straight forward with the band performing the song. Give “Meditate”, from The Slovaks, a spin through “Jeffrey Drag’s” YouTube channel – Richard:
