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
Hy Brasil is sharing with us their single and music video “Tightrope”. The single has a very smooth pace that transitions into a great driving beat for the chorus and back to the smoothness for the verse. This song is definitely a power ballad much in the tradition of The Boss. Thanks to Hy Brasil by sharing the music video for all of us to enjoy through their YouTube channel…Check it out – Richard:

Monks of Mellonwah will be releasing their Disconnect EP and to prep everyone for it they have released “Show Me Something More” to PopMatters. I really like the instrumentals on this single. I could just listen to them alone and enjoy the piece. The lyrics are just added flavoring for the single. I wish I could include the single here, but currently it is an exclusive at PopMatters website so jump on over and give “Show Me Something More” a listen – Ricahrd: http://www.popmatters.com/post/196432-monks-of-mellonwah-show-me-something-more-audio-premiere/
Well-Known Strangers will be one to consider for you playlist. With “Another Sun”, the group gives listeners a light rock/pop sound. I loved the rhythms and Betsy Ade’s Alto voice comes through nice and clear conveying the lyrics of the single really well. They have just released Found that “Another Sun” is on so grab it up and don’t let them be strangers to you. Enjoy the music video of “Another Sun” that the group is sharing with us from their YouTube channel – Richard

Lady Low is sharing with us their latest music video for the single “Hello Sweet Goodbye”. I don’t know what it is about this group, but I am still liking what they are doing. Lady Low has a way for having darkly beautiful songs. I know it sounds weird, but I can’t think of another way to say it. This single is no exception. The group pulls you in and you just absorb their music into your skin. The video they did for this single is equally absorbing. It is simply done, but I really enjoyed it. A job really well done on all accounts. Check out Lady Low’s “Hello Sweet Goodbye” from their YouTube channel – Richard:
Sneaky Bones has just released his album Dream of the End and is sharing with us his single “Dreams”. This single has that American Folk sound to it. Very reminiscent of something that Dylan would have sung. The folk style also lends itself to the title with it’s rhythm because to me it makes it sound dreamy for lack of anything better I can think of to describe it. If you dig folk music or want to give it a try check out “Dreams” through SoundCloud – Richard:
Take a listen to the latest single from Josh Stevens, “Hill Top”. The single also features Spencer Ludwig and is part of Stevens’ EP Story of Summer. “Hill Top”, starts out like it’s going to be a ballad and then it slowly builds until Josh transitions the single into a pop rock rhythm. Once into the single you get a great upbeat song that I had a fun time listening to. Check out “Hill Top’s” lyric music video through Josh’s YouTube channel – Richard:
We did the spot light on Nick de la Hoyde with his single “By My Side”. We enjoyed the single and now everyone can enjoy his music video for the same single. It is done in black and white style for the most part, which to me gives the video a classic feel to it. If you enjoyed Hoyde’s music you will want to check out his EP Passion that can be found on most digital services. Check out Nick’s music video for “By My Side” through his YouTube channel – Richard:
With the name Friday on Elm Street I expected a hard rock dark feel to this music. What we get with “Dear Beth” is a light pop rock single. Once I wrapped my heard of preconceived notions to what the band style is, I enjoyed the single. It is a synth heavy single and the lyrics are clear and everything has a catchy rhythm to “Dear Beth”. I don’t know it the style is through the rest of Friday on Elm Street’s music, but with this single my mind kept going back to what the Scooby-Doo cartoons would play within their episodes, just fun lighthearted music. Check out Friday on Elm Street’s lyric video for “Dear Beth” on their YouTube channel and pick up his album that drops on the 12th of this month – Richard:
