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.
The Pinkerton Raid is sharing with our listeners their single “Ghost in My Bed”. The band has a very early Americana feel to it. The sound of “Ghost in My Bed” has a little bit of tinny sound to it, which is why I say it has an early Americana feel to the single. The rhythm also has a light airy feel to it supplied by the keyboard. So take a listen to The Pinkerton Raid’s “Ghost in My Bed” from their upcoming 2017 album Tolerence Ends, Love Begins through SoundCloud – Richard:
Von Sell is sharing with us again. This time it is his latest single “Miss Me”. “Miss Me” continues with the electronica sound, but this time he is going for what I believe is an ethereal feel. The vocals and music at times blends to the extent that his voice isn’t the front and center. The verse Von Sell comes in nice and clear, but it is when the chorus comes in that the blending occurs. This might be intentional because the title of the single is “Miss Me” and with the chorus if you aren’t paying attention you can miss Von Sell’s vocals with all of the other vocals and instruments that are coming in at that point. If this is the case, which I think is, it conveys and connects with the title of the single really well. Check out Von Sell’s “Miss Me” through SoundCloud – Richard:
The Head is sharing with our listeners their music video for their single “Raincoats”. With “Raincoats” The Head is giving us a taste of their rock music. This single isn’t a hard rocking single. It lands in that area that what many would say is popular rock or main stream rock. The Head have a nice sound that is easy to listen to. With the video for this single it felt like someone just grabbed a camera and said lets go make a music video to give it that homemade feel to it where the band is just goofing off, which makes it fun. The Head have a few more tour dates available where you can catch them out if they are in your area. Here is a sample of their music with the “Raincoats” music video through their YouTube channel – Richard:

Von Sell is sharing with our listeners his single “Names”. From the beginning of “Names” you know it is a definite electronica/pop sound. During the middle section of the song it goes into an acoustical sound and then back to the electronica/pop feel. Von Sell has a nice clear voice that and one of my fears with electroinca music will overpower the singer. In “Names” Von Sell does blend in with the instruments, but it doesn’t over power his voice. His self titled EP is available so if “Names” is your groove be sure to check out the digital distributors for Von Sell’s EP. Until then here is Von Sell’s single “Names” through SoundCloud – Richard:
Wild Fur is sharing with our listeners their latest single “Can You See Me”, from their upcoming album Feel Free. Wild Fur is the duo of Wylie Hunter and Nick Jaeger and with this single they take use the music stylings of the late 1960’s to Early 1970’s. The single has that electronic sound that is in the flower power and psychedelic arena, but it isn’t heavy handed. The single still has that slight pop feel to it that will attract listeners to its sound. Wild Fur’s album, Fell Free, is scheduled for a November 4 release, but until then here is “Can You See Me” through SoundCloud – Richard:
Grammy nominated Anousheh has released her latest single “Bones” and she wants our listeners to experience it. “Bones” comes out of the gate swinging with a banging bass beat that gets your synapsis firing. The instruments don’t over power Anousheh though she has a strong voice that carries the song through it’s electro/pop sound with ease. Take a moment and enjoy Anousheh’s “Bones” through SoundCloud – Richard
Scott Sorry is hitting our listeners between the eyes with his rockin’ single “Broken Hearts and 45’s”. You can hear the mixture of hard rock and punk right from the start of this single. Scott’s voice doesn’t take a back set to the vocals though. He’s right out there in front giving it additional fullness with his vocals. You can find more of Scott Sorry’s music with his latest album When We Were Kings, but for a bit of a taste from the album Scott Sorry wants you to rock out with his single “Broken Hearts and 45’s” through SoundCloud – Richard:
REN delivers a nice smooth pop single with “Into the Unknown”. The single isn’t over bearing and has a catchy rhythm to it that just flows over the listener. The music video is fun to watch as well with all the color that pops out at the viewer. Very nice all the way around. So be sure to check out REN’s music video for “Into the Unknown” through her YouTube channel – Richard:
Jackie Paladino is sharing with our listeners here latest music video for her single, “Daddy’s Money”. The single has a nice 1950’s styling to it and then about 1:30 in it gets a pop infusion that carries through until the end of the single and it goes back to the 1950’s feel. With Jackie’s smoky voice it fits this type of sound really nicely. The infusion of pop into the single was refreshing as well and I can hear a remix coming where she uses the pop beat all the way through the single, which I think would be sweet. The music video is taking ques from the past as well with her and the rest of the crew in period dress with the old style microphones, makes it look nice and classy. Here’s Jackie Paladino’s music video for “Daddy’s Money” for you to enjoy through her YouTube channel – Richard:
The Hellflowers are sharing with us their fun single “Come On, Let’s Dance!” The single has a fun driving rock beat with a splash of punk for good measure. It reminds me of something that you might hear Pat Benatar sing. The music video that The Hellflowers are sharing has two distinct feels to it. You have the band singing that has that rough edge to it and then it splits to a bright scene where a couple is dancing…and I love the Ramones Tee. “Come On, Let’s Dance!” is the title track from the bands same titled EP that was released earlier this year. So go to your digital vendors and look up The Hellflowers Come On, Let’s Dance! EP and while you are doing that enjoy their music video to “Come On, Let’s Dance!” through their YouTube channel – Richard:
