CD Review: No Doubt, Push and Shove, Released September 25th

By Molly Segers No Doubt’s Push and Shove actually sounds like a No Doubt record. This may seem like a ridiculous observation, but considering it’s been just shy of 11 years since they put out a record, it was a completely reasonable concern for long time fans. I certainly breathed a sigh of relief. It […]

Album Review, Self-Titled, Bisoux, Playing September 19th @ Drunken Unicorn

By Chandler Mays Bisoux is a brand new band out of Atlanta, and their first self-titled EP packs quite the punch. Part 90’s alt-rock, part garage rock, part punk, and part pop, this six-song production is a rambunctious endeavor filled with rug-cutting drumbeats, catchy guitar hooks, rollicking basslines, and the delightfully sardonic musings of lead […]

Album Review: The Truth About Love, Pink, Released September 18th

Album Review By Molly Segers Pink has earned a rep as a pop star for people who normally wouldn’t fess up to liking pop, thanks in part to her big bombastic persona. The Truth About Love, released September 18, stays true to this, delivering 13 tracks of what she does best – empowerment anthems and […]
