Better Than All the Rest: Ajax Ray O’Vaque Reveals “Best Days of Our Lives” Single, Video
Anthony J. Resta’s alter ego launches first single from forthcoming Dreaming in Subtitles full-length out July 1st

The intro for Ajax’s “Best Days of Our Lives” was really cool, I really like the guitar part. I was kind of surprised when Ajax came in though, his voice is a little too high and airy for me to enjoy. I like all of the instrumentals and rhythms, they sound really awesome and the lyrics are really cool. His hook is good too and it gets in your head. The only thing I didn’t really like was, again, how high he sings. If he lowered it a bit I think I would enjoy it a lot more but I also know that there are people out there that will enjoy how the song is right now.

When I hear this it takes me back to the ’50’s and ’60’s.  Especially the sound which takes me back to when the Beach Boys, Jan and Dean, or any other surfing band would produce.  All the way from the rhythm of the music to the higher voices that was popular for male singers back then. – Richard

Tanner releases “Come Alive” Music Video

Make way for Tanner Stewart, a rising rock vocalist putting his stamp on the musical landscape.  Tanner’s self-titled debut EP will be released June 5, 2014. Check out the second single “Come Alive,” out now.

I love the edgy, raw sound to Tanner’s music. It’s rough and imperfect and I love that. The old school rock feel is easy to beat my head to and instantly interested me. The lyrics are great in ‘Come Alive’ and Tanner’s voice is awesome. His voice suits the music and makes sense. The music was soothing and edgy at the same time. Tanner’s definitely peaked my interest and I think he’s got a bright future in front of him.

Young Rising Sons Whistling Along on “High”

House of the Young Rising Sons: Dirty Canvas Music Launches Newest Band with Release of “High” Video

Artist development company headed by Shep Goodman and Aaron Accetta reveals next big roster addition

“High” from Young Rising Sons definitely got me high. From the very beginning I loved it, any type of whistling usually wins me over. The voice is great and the lyrics mean something. It’s hard to find that now. I already liked the song from the very beginning, but when the bass came in it was game over. I was completely in love with this song. Anyone who reads my reviews know how much I love bass and this is another example of just how awesome it can be. The bass transformed the song from an ok song into an awesome song. It’s that extra umph that’s really needed to make a song.

Rachel Griffin’s Single “A Summer Touch”

city bird publicityrachel griffin

The intro is a very clean opening with the piano. When Rachel comes in she has a nice clear sound. Even when she is going into the higher register you can understand her. The sound of this particular song is reminiscent to the Rat Pack days to me. Something you would hear in a night club or bar. Very moody and the instrumentals help support this feel with the piano, violin or base, and the soft brush of the drums. This song might not appeal to everyone, because it is a genre type feel, but give it a chance and I think it will grow on you.
I would love to hear other songs of hers to see what her voice sounds in other flavors of music. Having the different flavors will if nothing else keep Rachel from getting pigeon holed. – Richard

Flash TV Trailer

Looks like DC is doing with television what Marvel is doing in the movies, making a DC Universe that is tied together with the Arrow and Flash.  Question is will the new Gotham television series be tied in with the Arrow and Flash as well.  Any way here is the latest trailer from the CW with the upcoming Flash series that is spinning out of the Arrow series.  It looks like another winner to me.  Thanks to “The CW Television Network” channel on YouTube for the following extended trailer:

Constantine Television Series Trailer

I always enjoyed Hellblazer and I even liked the Constantine feature film enough to watch it a few times.  However, this new television series looks to be the best interpretation for Constantine.  They actually got an appropriate actor to play the part and the trailer looks impressive.  Check it out below thanks to the “NBCConstantine” channel on YouTube:
