Ladyfinger's "Errant Forms," as reviewer Mark Bestul says, "makes you miss the ‘90s when guitars were always loud, ears hurt after every show and people smashed the shit out of stuff."
Album Reviews
"the trusted language" by UUVVWWZ | Album Review
In "the trusted language," we hear UUVVWWZ with a sharpened intent and meatier music. This is a collection of darker, more mature songs that we review in-depth here.
"Chain Letters" by Big Harp | Album Review
Dan McCarthy of McCarthy Trenching says, "I love this record. I love this band. They are friends of mine, and I'm not trying to be objective." Read on for his thoughts on Big Harp's "Chain Letters."
"The Renfields" by The Renfields | Album Review
While The Renfields aren't akin to Abbey Road's finest as some comparisons say, this Lincoln band's self-titled record is well-produced with sarcastic sweetness, brooding laments and more.
"Little Gears" by Amy Schmidt | Album Review
"Little Gears" is an album for winter days spent working alongside a mug of hot chocolate. It's an introspective handful of songs Amy Schmidt will soon take with her to Europe.
"Here's Hoping Tomorrow Never Comes" by All Young Girls Are Machine Guns | Album Review
All Young Girls Are Machine Guns has honed in on a sound and produced an focused album of soul, jazz and a bit of doo-wop.
"Sleep Sounds" by Zach Short | Album Review
Zach Short records a solo album of optimistic, dreamy sentiments, building upon his work with In Love and other Omaha musicians.
"Songs" by Low Horse | Album Review
It's either die young or get old. Low Horse's debut EP talks of the realities of aging, and going "on with the show and the encore no one called for."
"The Liver is Evil" by The Raging Derilicts | Fan's Review
The Raging Derilicts issue this warning: This album may lead you to be "completely disrespectful, get wasted and ride motorcycles through graveyards."
"GENERALS" by The Mynabirds | Album Review | X-Rated
The new album from Omaha group The Mynabirds is a feminist pop gem, but what are we fighting for?
