Creem (NY)
"Their arsenal of rhythmic drumming, shattering bass lines, commanding guitar work and overly capricious vocal dynamics pool together a rigmarole of disjointed points in punk rock chronology. The rolling chorus of 'Sick Of You' hamfists together a deranged Keith Morris with the kind of attrition war momentum of Negative Approach's 'Dead Stop'. - Pagan Punx

Urban Blight (Toronto)
"Urban Blight (If you don’t know them already) is a group of guys from Toronto, Canada who play super nihilistic hardcore in the vein of Negative Approach, Agnostic Front and Vile Gash."

Low Flying Owls
"Low Flying Owls had quite the hiatus but we’re back. After touring behind our first official release, Elixir Vitae, and supporting noteworthy luminaries The Fall, Clinic, and Blonde Redhead, we disbanded in the latter part of 2005. Seven years forward, we have a new album on the musical horizon. It’s a stripped down melodic sound, without much fussing around. Leaning on our greater pop sensibilities, we tracked and mixed the Lovevolve EP at a quirky recording studio in Eagle Rock, CA known as The Ship. The place is decked out in sea faring aesthetics and sounds like a dream!" - Low Flying Owls

Punk Rock Sideshow

The Sights (Detroit)
Detroit’s masters of heavy soul, The Sights, are a five-piece rock ‘n’ roll band renowned for both their incendiary live shows and acclaimed song-writing. Think Big Star and Badfinger fronted by Steve Marriott and you’ll get a pretty good idea of what makes these guys tick. (bio)

Southeast Engine
Part wilderness excursion, part history lesson and part revival meeting, Southeast Engine’s music is intent on transporting listeners, be it to another place or another plane. The Ohio quartet’s fifth album, Canary, features songs that journey through the mountains, by the lake, and back through time, all in search of what frontman Adam Remnant calls “the place I once called home” in the album-opener “Curse Of Canannville.” Building from a base of loping country-rock, Southeast Engine frequently breaks into a full gallop, playing with wild abandon and outright joy even when singing songs about the Great Depression. Remnant has full command of his warbling voice, and calls on gospel and bluegrass traditions as he describes hard times and hard places, always taking special note of the people and traditions that make life easier, remembering that “sure things could be better… at least we have each other.” - Onion AV Club
