Wick by Royal Thunder
Wick by Royal Thunder
2017 | Metal
They have the sensibility and the songwriting, and, with more focus, Royal Thunder could be the much-needed antidote to the blustery machismo that dominates active-rock radio.
Critic- Kory Grow
Original Score: 3.5 out of 5

Hopeless Fountain Kingdom by Halsey
Hopeless Fountain Kingdom by Halsey
2017 | Alternative
On an album full of radio experiments, some succeed—“100 Letters,” “Walls Could Talk” and “Alone” demonstrate the perennially fertile sound of alt-pop—and some inevitably fail.
Critic- Katherine St. Asaph
Original Score: 6.5 out of 10

A waste of my time. Or how I got road rage listening to a rambling artist talk endlessly about nothing useful and then was forced to listen to horrifically bad punk folk songs while I scrambled to push the correct radio buttons that would make the madness stop!

The premise of this movie is fairly simple, the main character's mom comes out of a coma, East and West Germany have reunited, and this fact may kill his mother. The hoops he jumps through to keep his mother calm are hilarious, fake newscasts, radio, everything.

Rolling Stone's 483rd greatest album of all time
Loved this album great thrashy punk with excellent bass lines. I can tell a big influence on the likes of The Rapture and Radio 4, proper stomping drums and angry vocals. Great album, like a less boring version of The Jam.

Crazy Feeling by Lou Reed

(0 Ratings)

Track

"I love that whole album, Coney Island Baby, I like the whole way that album was done. It’s got a cooler, very studio thing going on with all these ‘Oohs’ and ‘Ahh’s’ on the vocals all over the place. “With ‘Crazy Feeling’, I can’t be sure, but I think I heard it on the radio when it first came out. I think I was going to kindergarten somewhere; that was the ‘60s for me! I heard that ‘bum, bum, bum’, that sort of that chiming thing that goes on, and I really liked it and the sound of the guy’s voice singing. “At this point, it could’ve been a vivid dream that I’m remembering, but I think it actually was that song that I heard that on the radio and mixed in with everything else it caught my ear, at whatever age I was, whenever that song might’ve gotten a couple plays on a radio station. We would’ve been listening to a New York station at that time, living in Connecticut, or a Connecticut station"

" the first one I bought was The Cure’s Standing on a Beach. I just wanted to find out about this band that I kept hearing about. I thought the record cover was weird. They weren’t on MTV, they weren’t on the radio. So this was my way of figuring it out."

"I was involved in the launch of a community radio station in Peckham this year, as we went live I completely lost control of the web stuff I had setup and Peggy Gou’s artwork was just stuck on the homepage all day. I figured I should listen and been hooked since"

"This is a throwback to my youth. I heard it at the time, thought it was nice enough, but then I was reintroduced to Tears for Fears a lot later on. We had the big chains like Tower Records and Sam Goodie in Reno, then there was Recycled Records which sold vinyl, that’s still there. We’d cruise on over to the mall and I’d have a wish list of records I wanted for my birthday or Christmas. When I was younger than that my mom would buy me tape singles and I’d listen to the radio a lot. When I was little I was all about the radio. I remember this song from those days."
