Anberlin - Dark Is the Way, Light Is a Place
In 2003, my friend Jordan and I debated which band was Tooth & Nail’s best new signee. Seven years later, I must assent that Jordan was right and I was wrong. Clearly, it was Anberlin for the win.
Flatfoot 56 - Black Thorn
Celtic/Scottish Punk at its best
The Ember Days - Finger Painting EP
On this latest release these New Zealand worshippers sound like Explosions In The Sky infused with a bit of Jesus, complete with those constant, dripping, echoing guitar riffs and those soothing build-ups fueled by those rat-a-tat snare rhythms and lazy cymbal rolls.

Rodeo Ruby Love - This Is Why We Don't Have Nice Things
Without losing the emotional depth of the past decade, Rodeo Ruby Love brings back the fun of the decade before that (90's). The intrinsic paradox is the genius of this record, and I wouldn’t be surprised if this is where music is going for the next ten years.
Hearts In Stereo - A Tale Of Two Worlds
This sophomore release brings a familiar sound from these young musicians from the Great White North’s capital (for you non-Canadians, that’s Ottawa!)
