Army Navy The Last Place Fever Zone By Al Kaufman For a band that doesn’t have a label, and has never had a pop single, Army Navy sure has a lot of friends in high places. Frontman Justin Kennedy was in a band with his high school buddy, Ben Gibbard, before Gibbard left to start […]

By Eileen Tilson Indie rockers, Grouplove, have been very busy this year. Having toured with the likes of Florence & the Machine, the band released their first full length album, Never Trust a Happy Song, in September, and have been touring the country in support.

By Eileen Tilson So I know what you are thinking…..Ryan Cabrera? Celebrity boyfriend extraordinaire? Well Mr. Cabrera is far from the days of being Ashley Simpson’s main squeeze, and he is physically taking on the part of being a serious musician as well.

By Scott Roberts Beloved Athens band R.E.M. announced, with little fanfare and on a Wednesday, that after 31 years they had decided to call it a day. The news crept over me insidiously as I went from a sort of ho-hum response (as I hadn’t really cared much about the band’s music since original drummer […]

Mutemath Odd Soul Warner Brothers Records By Ellen Eldridge My interest in Mutemath reached its peak when I heard the term “mathrock,” because I assumed Mutemath would use more than the standard 4/4 time signature.
