Tommy Howell’s American Storyteller is a throwback in the best possible way. The actor known as C. Thomas Howell has taken on a different moniker for his debut musical collection, but the same guy shines through. Onetime rodeo star and son of a famed stuntman, Howell’s love for roots music comes through during each of the
Battered but still unadorned with plasticity, the dark melodies dance with reckless abandon in “Pornstar.†They quake and rustle against the rhythm of a pained melody in “Bonesaw†and struggle to define the tone of the music with a casualness that impales the lyricism with a strange sense of irony. There is no overstating their
There’s not much – if anything – about Migrant Motel’s “Shame†that would qualify as typical by mainstream standards. For example, take the hook in the chorus; David Stewart is pushing the vocal track hard into the synths in the background, but their clash is anything but discordant. They’re fused as one, peppered with a

Summoning the spirit of 2000’s hardcore, Dallas, Texas band Nygma has established a reputation for surrealistic lyrics, unorthodox guitar melodies, unpredictable shifts in tempo and rhythm, and wild stage presence. Burnie, Colten, and Caleb have been playing music together for close to 16 years, they’ve been in other bands together as well as touring the
Ideally, a collaboration between two artists teaches us something about both performers and what they have to share in a unique capacity. In the right circumstances, a track like “Buttercup†would have us get to know another side of Little Hurt that simply wasn’t accessible before coming into the same studio as a veteran performer
Adding to a credible discography when you’ve already got the kind of street value that racks up hundreds of thousands of streams online is a lot harder than it sounds on paper, but in their new single “Let’s Go,†Of Limbo are making it sound all too easy. The band’s sound has come a long

Vividly kaleidoscopic melodies spark “The Pathway,†one of them more instantly satisfying in David Raybuck’s The Prodigal, to life with an effervescence that the singer and songwriter will revisit in “Be Healed†and “Desert Ride,†but that said, there’s something really special about what we’re met with in this experiment in making harmony-powered pop endearing again.
