track review

  • Actor, writer, and rapper Donald Glover is Childish Gambino. He’s best known for his comedic output, but his rap career seems to be growing exponentially with the release of his latest EP–look out for a full-length this fall, too. We’re taking on the lead single from this

  • On this new track, Bon Iver has altered the instrumentation his somber tunes soak in, but not much else. Years after For Emma has dropped, the mood as stayed roughly the same–which is a pretty great thing, to me. Sincerity, earnestness, honesty, and passion all come through on this

  • Boris will be releasing two new albums on 4/26, and one, I’m guessing, will be heading in a much different direction. The song “Party Boy” comes off one of the two albums due to be released, Attention Please. Is this track for you? Find out in this review.

  • T,TC’s latest single goes down the same dark road we saw him on in Bastard. His flow and rhymes are better than ever, but I’m still hesitant to jump into the foxhole and start fighting for the future of Odd Future. There’s a ton of potential

  • After a somewhat surprising “break,” the Strokes have come back with a vengeance, wielding a new single from their upcoming album, “Cover of Darkness.” Is this track for you? Find out in this review. Review: The Strokes- Cover of Darkness Stream: The Strokes- Cover of Darkness (article link)
