Single Review: Silversun Pickups – Nightlight
August 15, 20152015 is more than half over but there are still so many new releases to be excited about. I’ve been a Silversun Pickups fan ever since I first heard “Lazy Eye” hit the airways back in 2006, my love increasing exponentially upon getting to see them live in support of Neck of the...

After their first LP, Eyelid Movies, they dodged the sophomore slump bullet with their major label debut, ...

January 29, 2014Passion and precedence merged within Danger Mouse and The Shins’ frontman James Mercer as they drop their sophomore album, After The Disco as Broken Bells.

January 21, 2014January 19, 2014: The Royal Oak Music Theatre, Royal Oak, Michigan
