REVIEW: Uh Huh Baby Yeah! – Trash Talk

April 19th, 2013 Matthew Leimkuehler

Artist: Uh Huh Baby Yeah!
Album: Trash Talk
Genre: Rock/Pop
Label: Little Heart Records/Streaker Records

Louisville’s Uh Huh Baby Yeah! channels an interestingly catchy mixture of rough-around-the-edges post-hard and all-too-catchy pop-rock on their latest release, Trash Talk.

Trash Talk opens with “Dances With Wolves,” which spouts a clear and perfect example of this mixture. The track has a stupidly catchy chorus that explodes in the listeners’ ears, while the bridge of the song mirrors aggression not unlike a former Louisville artist, Emanuel (circa Soundtrack To A Headrush era, of course).

February is the month where we show our significant other how much we love them (which should really be all the time, not just on a specific date).

MUSIC VIDEO: The Used – “Hands And Faces”

March 8th, 2013 Dayton O'Connor

Can The Used frontman Bert McCracken be your hero, baby?

That’s the main question posited in the music video for “Hands and Faces” the second single from The Used’s fifth album and their first with Hopeless Records, 2012′s Vulnerable. I have a question of my own: Why did it take them so long to put out a video for this song? The single initially came out in February of last year.

Oh, maybe because Vulnerable was reissued in January with a second disc chock full of b-sides and demos? That’s actually a pretty good reason. Thanks for clearing …

January 2nd, 2013 James Shotwell

We are officially less than a week away from the release of Black Veil Brides’ Sophomore album, Wretched And Divine: The Story Of The Wild Ones. Some of you may groan at the thought of the incoming flood of BVB fans screaming from every social platform thinkable about the album’s quality, but the truth is, as far as we’ve heard, the album actually rips.

The Used likely need no introduction as they’ve become one of the most popular acts in their respective scene. In the band’s 11 year career, they’ve provided the masses with five acclaimed full-length studio albums, from their 2002 self-titled debut to their most recent effort, this year’s Vulnerable which peaked at number 8 on the Billboard 200 after its March release.
