GRAYBEAT "ELEMENTAL RHAPSODY" REVIEW

July 10, 2020 by Andrew Perrizo in Album Review

GrayBeat returns on his first full length album, Elemental Rhapsody, which continues the saga that began on the Whaelstrom EP. Elemental Rhapsody is best experienced in full, each song introducing a new idea and expanding on it fully. You are taken through the life of Graylien, the Astrarian from Xul, as he goes on his adventure, experiencing the unknown that lies ahead.

SISTER SPECIES "LIGHT EXCHANGES" REVIEW

May 25, 2020 by Andrew Perrizo in Album Review

I’m officially baptizing Sister Species as the Slipknot of chamber pop! For those of you who don’t know what I mean by that, Sister Species flouts the traditional three or four member line up, much like Slipknot, and instead has seven awesome musicians. All these individuals combine to create a compositional sound that is full and lush, and just plain good!

VIAL "THERAPY" MUSIC VIDEO

May 14, 2020 by Andrew Perrizo in Video Premiere

Who among us hasn’t thought about getting back together with an ex even though we all know it’s a terrible idea? Our ex-s are ex-s for a reason. In “Therapy” even VIAL’s therapist insists that it would be a bad idea to get back with their ex. VIAL teams up with Movement X Media to give us a video to go along with their post break-up anthem.
