Anyone who knows me knows that I’m no die-hard fan of electronic music. While I love a lot of IDM and downtempo music (not to mention a lot of speedcore like DJ Sharpnel), you’d be hard pressed to find me somewhere like Stereo Live or Gritsy. As I noted before, however, I do have a […]
School is officially out! And now its time to whip out that “summer-time-fine” bod, meet a beach hottie, and create an epic summer romance. All jokes aside, we know the summer can leave you with “unlimited” time, and if you aren’t careful this can turn into the boredom monster (yikes). So whether you have […]

Regardless, the release of their fourth album “Fortress” has revived the hard rock style that initially attracted fans to their […]
After Day 2 ending early, I was definitely worried about the show’s possible cancellation. Fortunately, it didn’t rain, but it was absolutely freezing. The temperature stayed in the low forties throughout the day, so everyone, including the bands, were moving as crazy as possible to keep warm. Day 3 of South by So What? consisted […]

In honor of Saint Patrick’s Day we bring you exclusive photos from the Dropkick Murphys House of Blues performance. By Nick Page
The House of Blues remained true to its name by bringing the hard-edged blues styling of George Thorogood and the Destroyers to town. Although I was surrounded by people who could have been my parents, I did not feel out of place. Thorogood’s energy and enthusiasm for the music brought us all together. Thorogood put […]
More than music. Those who have listened to Childish Gambino’s second album, Because the Internet, are probably familiar with the larger story that revolves around it: A 75-page screenplay about a spoiled rich kid who hangs out with his friends and trolls the Internet. The many attitudes found in the album range from upbeat […]
The Pixies came back to Houston for the first time in four years to play a show at the Bayou Music Center. After hearing Kim Deal had left the band last summer, I was a little iffy walking in — but hey, it was the Pixies, so I could not pass up this show and good thing I […]

With the constant media attention of mainstream rap gearing towards big names such as Jay Z, Kanye West, or Drake, Schooboy Q’s albums are a refreshing change depicting a new sound that can be applied to rap music diminishing altogether the tough-boy appeal.
