Prior to just a few weeks ago, I’d never heard of Socalled. Funny, considering he’s just released his fourth studio album, titled Sleep Over, but due to my unfamiliarity with the artist, I wasn’t all that interested in diving right in. When I finally got around to giving it a listen, I found one of the most stylistically unique offerings [...]
For a few years now Ha Ha Tonka has kind of been our little Ozarkian secret. Not that we were trying desperately to keep it that way, in fact I for one have been starting blazes wherever I could hoping to watch the wild fire burn. It’s been a privilege knowing these guys since 2004 when they were still learning [...]
Thankfully I was lucky enough to see not only Slightly Stoopid this past weekend at the Pageant in St. Louis, but the Meat Puppets as well. While I questioned whether both bands would be performing in their prime, they surprisingly managed to pack the house and put on a great show that would’ve been an absolute crime to enjoy sober. [...]
Suburban Noize Records, famous for churning out bands like (hed)p.e. and the Kottonmouth Kings, is looking to cater to the small but growing country rap fan base with the Moonshine Bandits. Their fourth album, Whiskey and Women, is a wild introduction of sorts, and serves to establish the group’s tone and southern values for new listeners. But how does it [...]
Trans Siberian Orchestra is a metal band that specializes in Christmas rock operas. My ticket was a Christmas present, and I had only heard them offhand on random Christmas music playlists, so I can’t say I was all that excited. The biggest draw for me was TSO’s reputation for blatant use of pyrotechnics and moving stage sets, and within the [...]
When the MC Chris show was announced here in Columbia, I was excited in a really big way. Not only was MC Lars and Schaffer the Darklord coming with him, but the show was happening at Mojo’s, essentially a bar with its seating removed. Cheap beer and small venue aside, I also missed MC Chris when he came last year [...]
At first I was unsure how I was going to be able to review a Sublime cover band, or any cover band for that matter. But now that I have finally seen Badfish in concert, I don’t know how I couldn’t write about them. Sure you may think you know what to expect because you have listened to every Sublime [...]
Hot after the release of their first installment of a three part EP, “The Weekend: Friday”, Forever the sickest Kids’ tour stopped in at the Blue Note in Columbia Missouri. Forever the Sickest Kids has one of the largest Facebook fan bases of any band to come to the Columbia area. First off I need to say that I would [...]
Most radio listeners have heard “Bartender Song (Sittin’ At A Bar)”, but might be on the fence about actually getting out of their house to see a Rehab show. This band is definitely best in concert, and I think most can agree that their albums are already rock solid to begin with. While they may not have the largest discography [...]
Colt Ford stopped into Columbia Missouri on November 4th for a rockin’ concert at the Blue Note. Featuring artists Tyler Farr, and Sunny Ledfurd, this was one of the best shows at the venue this season. I arrived at the Blue Note about 30 minutes before the doors opened, and the crowd was lined up around the building. We don’t [...]
