Chiodos - Those Who Slay Together, Stay Together [2010]


This is the first song released off of Chiodos upcoming album Illuminaudio, and the first song featuring the new vocalist Brandon Bolmer. It's a good song, it's not bad but its not better than Thermacare.

BannerHill - Beautiful.Dangerous


BannerHill is a female fronted Pop Rock band with just a dsh of hardcore flavor, which prevents an easy genre classification. This band doesn't really do anything really great, they just provide an all around good listening experience. There's an interesting breakdown in "Longshot" and there's a little bit of screaming on the second track "You Bring The Cupcackes". They falso use the dual male/female vocalist approach, it doesn't sound forced or annoying like other bands because the second vocalist is used lightly. All of the musicians seem to be equally talented and the singer is solid. The only really unique thing about this band is the lyrics or the writing style, the singer has a unique writing style that stands out from the music. I wouldn't be surprised if BannerHill became one of the top bands in their genre.

Emarosa - Emarosa [2010]

Emarosa's self-titled sophomore LP displays the bands greatest attribute, Jonny Craig. This is a great album, but I don't think the band will get the credit they deserve because the album is kind of boring on the first listen. This album is the kind that grows on you the more you listen. The instrumentation is tight and complex and the vocals are amazing, however this album lacks the dynamic energy that the first album had and that has turned some listeners away. You wont get any "Tailored sheets" opening lines. This is definitely a more radio friendly Emarosa, although we do get some screaming on "I Still Feel Her pt 4" which were missed on the first album "Relativity". If your a fan of Emarosa already the more you listen to this album the more you will like it. If your not a fan, take a chance you might like this more laid back post-hardcore.
