Koufax

Koufax Strugglers [3/5] Although Koufax reside in Lawrence, Kansas, the pure-pop sensibilities of that town’s most famous sons-i.e., Ryan and Rob Pope of the Get Up Kids, who were in Koufax for a spell-no longer dominate their aesthetic. In fact, Strugglers finds the piano-rock quintet in the middle of an identity crisis. Much of the...

Eddy Current Suppression Ring

Eddy Current Suppression Ring Primary Colours [3.5/5] There’s something beautifully honest about copping your sound from a band you love. The results aren’t always great, but when they are, there’s nothing purer. Australian garage punks Eddy Current Suppression Ring love the Stooges. Like, just fucking love them so, so much. They love all the right...

Diffuser

Diffuser Sincerely, Wasting Away [3/5] Diffuser’s career parallels so many other pop-punk bands who spend years being liked but never quite loved. After a bit of a break, the New York-based group, once billed by some as the next sensation in the burgeoning emo/pop-punk genre, now sound remarkably dated. Many would argue that the band’s...

Forgive Durden confirmed for Bamboozle Left

Forgive Durden has been confirmed for Bamboozle Left, taking place April 4th & 5th in Irvine, CA. The band will be performing their latest release, Razia’s Shadow.

Darker My Love

Darker My Love 2 [4/5] There are no hidden touchstones on the aptly titled second full-length from California-based dream weavers Darker My Love. With a lineup including ex-Nerve Agents Tim Presley (guitar/vocals) and Andy Granelli (drums, also formerly of the Distillers), the quintet sublimate all kinds of lush psych rock and anthemic Britpop, dropping kaleidoscopic...

Anberlin

Anberlin New Surrender [3/5] Anberlin have never failed to deliver on high expectations. 2007’s Cities was their boldest effort to date, exploring a wider range of tempos and emotions, and it landed the group a major-label deal. New Surrender plays similarly to the last effort, but feels slightly hollow in comparison. The re-recorded version of...

The Cab added to Bamboozle Left

The Cab is the latest band to be added to The Bamboozle Left. He’ll join Senses Fail, We The Kings, the Get Up Kids, Forever The Sickest Kids, Cobra Starship, All Time Low, Sonny, Brokencyde, Never Shout Never, Bloodhound Gang, Suicide Silence, Winds Of Plauge, Attack Attack! and Have Heart among more that are...
