"Chaos" by MUTEMATH

7/29/2016

Alternative rock/ indie rock/ electronica/ psychedelic soul/ post-rock

Recently I discussed MUTEMATH who opened up for twenty-one pilots a couple of weeks ago. Exploring their music a little more in depth because let's just be clear here, their live performance blew me AWAY, I stumbled on to this track and am not finding myself hunting for more music by them! "Blood Pressure" is another good one I found... gosh I sound like I am Pokemon hunting but trying to find good music instead. MUTEMATH is like Franz Ferdinand but on crack. Listening to anything cool lately? Share it with us! Have a GREAT weekend y'all! | SharFez |

Split Film Directed by M. Night Shyamalan

7/29/2016

Psychological/ Horror/ Thriller

WHY DO WE ALL HAVE TO WAIT TILL JANUARY OF 2017 FOR THIS?! Happy Friday yall! Here is another sick and twisted film soon to be released but wait, it's not directed by some amateur with a sick and twisted story line they don't know how to portray, it's directed my one of my favorite directors, M. Night Shyamalan. Okay so you guys are now thinking this moving isn't going to have you on the edge of your seat, cringing your teeth, frightfully waiting on the next scene to find out what happens, because you all are so used to Shyamalan's movies being slow, steady, a tad bit eerie but definitely not thrilling. This can't be another supernatural movie. What is this beast they speak of? Since The Visit, we've witnessed Shyamalan's directing change on a better level. Do you all agree, do you disagree? Be vocal and let me know. Split looks pretty interesting in a way that this kind of situation takes place in reality, but then again, anything can happen in reality especially with all the crazies we are currently living among-st us. Watch the trailer for yourself, Shyamalan, don't let me down on this one!

"The Hills" just dropped a 10th anniversary trailer and we’re losing our sh*t

7/27/2016

FREAK OUT!!!

I am beyond excited for this show. My boyfriend always gives me shit when I watch reality TV which I rarely do but The Hills being one of them! Watching this trailer brings back feelings of nostalgia. To a time when I was just a kid and the most drama in my life was through this reality hit. Having watched all seasons and episodes of Laguna Beach,

where it all began, it lead me to being an active watcher of The Hills that briefly followed right after. My dad and I would watch episode after episode laughing our asses off at Spencer Pratt's crazy and paranoid antics and Justin Bobby "The Player" driving all the swooning girls bonkers. Seeing that the show will air a new series promo gets me to relive my childhood! Plus I'm already so invested in this show, I might as well find all the

secrets out! Make sure you join Lauren Conrad on The Hills: That Was Then, This Is Now on Sunday 7th August at 8pm on MTV! | Narissa |

Bleed American Album by Jimmy Eat World Celebrates 15 Years

7/27/2016

My favorite album by my favorite band celebrates it's 15th birthday for Bleed American. Is it ironic that the album title is pretty relevant to current society? Here's a message from lead singer Jim Adkins.

"Bleed American, the album, just celebrated it's 15 year birthday.

I get asked by people sometimes what it's like to play these (older) songs in two-thousand-whatever it may be now. They seem to be expecting an answer from me like, ugh... not that again. But nothing. Nothing could be further from the truth of what it's like.

You can summon pretty much the history of recorded audio on-demand anytime you want from your phone these days. And seemingly exponentially more audio every week. With all of that competition for your listening time, the fact people built such lasting associations with these songs... is probably the highest compliment any musician can receive. And

some are still building. Which blows my mind. The more time passes, the easier it is to really take in, appreciate and be grateful for anyone who is still are around.

We were proud of what we made with Mark Trombino. But we had no idea how much the situation of our band would change once the music got out to the street.

So, thank you all for your interest in our songs new and old.

Found a link to our first TV spot ever. I remember I was totally sick that day and we were stressing out because right after filming we had to load out and get to El Ray for soundcheck. I also think I got a backstage intervention on me for using duct tape to hold my strap to my guitar and in the end, opted for the more professional look of no duct tape." -Jim Adkins

You can purchase your copy of the CD and Vinyl at Best Buy. Going to listen to some JEW all day. Peace out! | SharFez |

"Bleed American" CD

"Domino" by Blondfire

7/26/2016

Indie pop/ Electronica/ Alternative rock/ Dance music

"Domino" is here! A psychedelic fantasy trip for the new single from Blondfire's True Confessions ep. Erica brings her surrealist collages to life with stop motion animation + tons of other effects. Blondfire is an American indie pop band from Los Angeles, California, United States. It started as a duo of brother and sister Bruce and Erica Driscoll, under the name Astaire, and in 2015 has been a solo act with Erica Driscoll, but that hasn't set any delays for Blondfire.
PS: This is a really good song to slow dance to!

"Purple Lamborghini" by Skrillex and Rick Ross --Suicide Squad Movie Soundtrack

7/22/2016

Rap/ Dubstep/ Soundtrack

Every crazed, manic, dripping-with-attitude film deserves a soundtrack to match, but unlike most films relying on licensed tracks to round out their movie’s soundscape, director David Ayer has turned to some truly creative collaborations for Suicide Squad. And after early word broke that a song by Skrillex and Rick Ross would also be revealed at some point in the marketing, the day has finally come.

As predicted, “Purple Lamborghini” delivers the goods, with a style and energy that, strangely, fits well alongside releases like “Heathens” by twenty one pilots, and “Sucker For Pain” by Lil Wayne, Wiz Khalifa and Imagine Dragons that also features Logic, Ty Dolla $ign and X Ambassadors. Fans will still have to wait to see the music video rumored to feature Jared Leto’s Joker, but for now, the animated skull versions of the two artists will have to do.

There will still be those holding out hope for the full music video, if only for the extra footage from the film likely contained within (if it follows the same structure as others). Aside from that, we must only ask if David Ayer and his team will decide to actually go fully meta, and have Joker listening to a song about his “Purple Lamborghini” as he’s driving… his purple Lamborghini.

PJ Harvey -Your Next Favorite Female Rocker

7/21/2016

Alternative rock/ punk blues/ art rock/ indie rock/ experimental rock

Rummaging through a bunch of my CD's last night to organize them all I came across a few by this dark haired beauty. I was first introduced to PJ Harvey's music when I lived in Houston. Actually Houston was a very good city to me musically, I discovered so much more than any other time in my life. Polly Jean Harvey, MBE, known as PJ Harvey, is an English musician, singer-songwriter, writer, poet, and composer. Primarily known as a vocalist and guitarist, she is also proficient with a wide range of instruments. I am very huge on finding strong female vocalists and female bands, if you like Metric and Alanis Morissette then you will surely love this rocker PJ Harvey. Side note, can I just point out how attractive her physical appearance is!? Unfortunately VEVO doesn't like us so I will post the link to two of my favorite songs by her! | SharFez |
