Flawless Friday Video: Half Past Two
It can be kind of a bummer when the person you like finds love elsewhere. We should remember that not every person is for us. I know, still disappointing. Half Past Two has an enjoyable Dungeons & Dragons inspired video for “See You Again.” Gamers need love and friendship too. Don’t look past those whoContinue reading “Flawless Friday Video: Half Past Two”
Sleep Deprived Music Review: Peach Kelli Pop
The music of Peach Kelli Pop feels like bubblegum, rainbows, Lisa Frank stickers and happiness. It might not be for everyone but we need to find happiness where we can.

Omnimar Who: Omnimar of Moscow. Maria Mar and Alex Vrt What: Alternative electronic pop/Dark Pop Why: They are so melodramatic -like my teenager would say, “Big Mood.” Everything about them is so stylish – the music, their Instagram account, the videos.

Interview with . . . Erin Incoherent
Erin Incoherent is the coolest. She’s definitely a punk rocker in appearance as well as the sentiment of her music. The music itself is like acoustic punk.

Erin Incoherent”
Bring the Funk Music Review: OTEP
OTEP has been known to bring in the noise and the funk. I can’t tell if there’s more noise or funk. Anyway, they have a newish album out called Kult 45. It has controversy all over it – from the cover to the last lyric. Music isn’t always shiny happy funk. Sometimes music can getContinue reading “Bring the Funk Music Review: OTEP”
Sleep Deprived Music Review: Subways on the Sun
When the first song on the new Subways on the Sun album started, I was not convinced that I would like this album. By the end of the song, I was prepared to stay for the rest of the album. It doesn’t always go like that – not everyone wins over the audience. Capsize willContinue reading “Sleep Deprived Music Review: Subways on the Sun”
Sleep Deprived Music Review: Slow Kiss
Do you guys remember Mazzy Star? So imagine if their lead singer was not shy and was into punk rock instead of hazy shoe gazy music – then Mazzy Star would be really similar to Slow Kiss. Both singers sound similar to me. I’m not sure if they resemble each other physically so they probablyContinue reading “Sleep Deprived Music Review: Slow Kiss”
