Interview – The Hush Sound
For the past couple weeks, you guys have been playing dates in Europe in preparation for the release of your new album, Like Vines. So tell me, honestly… has the confidence you have in your art allowed you to have ever predicted one day being here, doing all this? Greta: When we first started, Bob [...]

Lyric Feature – Terminal Butterfly by Nicole Lexi Davis
Song commentary for this album by Nicole Davis. Writing for me has always been a primary way I like to express myself creatively as well as emotionally. Again and again, it’s proven to be an incredibly powerful outlet because it allows me to say many things I couldn’t say otherwise. As a medium—music itself (and [...]

Lyric Feature – Boys Like Girls by Boys Like Girls
Song commentary for this album by Martin Johnson. When I write lyrics, they flow naturally from personal experience and emotions from places, people, and times in my life. We write all our songs’ music first, then melody, then lyrics… with lyrical inspiration driven from how the music and melody sonically hits you. Tackling every song [...]

Interview – Plain White T’s
Q: So your next album, All That We Needed, is now slated for release in January on Fearless Records. It’s been about two years since you released Stop… what has the band been doing to stay busy between records? De’Mar: Well, we have done a lot and a lot of touring. That’s basically the only [...]

Interview – The Academy Is
Q: Adam, your band has established itself more and more on the scene with a growing fanbase and a successful self-titled album. Is the pace at which you’ve been achieving this success what you’d expected starting out? Adam: During the fall of 2003, Bill–our singer–and I had been attempting to start a rock band. He [...]

Lyric Feature – Crash And Burn by Four Nights Gone
Posted January 20, 2012 by PlayPro
Song commentary for this album by Damian LaRocco. As a person, I’ve always found it difficult to express myself. Growing up I often would bottle up everything and eventually it would build up until it felt I would snap. I knew that was a bad habit so I had to get it out somehow. Writing [...]

Review – Alaska by Between The Buried And Me
Posted November 28, 2011 by PlayPro
This is the band’s third album, released last month. For those of you wondering how this new one compared to the first two, I have to admit, I don’t know, this is the first BTB&M album I’ve ever owned. But I will tell you this: Alaska is a cut-the-crap, no bars held, death-metal-light tour de [...]

Review – A Celebration Of An Ending by Before Today
Posted November 28, 2011 by PlayPro
The sophomore album of the San Diego quartet Before Today is coming soon, and to prep its glorious release, Euphonia Online brings you a review of their Equal Vision debut: A Celebration of an Ending. I usually wouldn’t review a CD that came out a year ago, especially when the next one is on the [...]

Review – Bayside by Bayside
Posted November 28, 2011 by PlayPro
To be honest, I’ve never really understood self-titled albums. I’d imagine the record naming process would be a lot of fun, and I don’t get why anyone would want to miss out on that. Giving your new album the same name as your band seems sort of… well, boring. So when Bayside decided to make [...]

Review – Ruiner by A Wilhelm Scream
Posted November 28, 2011 by PlayPro
The kids all agree: Ruiner is a piece of art. Produced by the man Bill Stevenson, released by Nitro Records, A Wilhelm Scream’s second album broadens the punk genre and their fanbase in one breath. There are a lot of bands you could compare A Wilhelm Scream to, but you would be doing them no [...]

Review – City Of Evil by Avenged Sevenfold
Posted November 28, 2011 by PlayPro
Avenged Sevenfold: City of Evil “One of the most anticipated albums of 2005” -Alternative Press This is what it says on the little sticker on City of Evil’s case, and besides that, we really have no idea what to expect from A7X’s third effort. Think about it, Thursday’s Full Collapse had a little sticker that [...]

Review – This Station Is Non-Operational by At The Drive-in
Posted November 28, 2011 by PlayPro
The credits for this CD read: “At.the.Drive-In was: Tony, Jim, Paul, Cedric, Omar.” Note the “was,” which basically means Fearless Records, upon the release of this CD, is officially announcing that At the Drive-In is completely and forever broken up. A lot of fans had perceived a get-back-together from the band in the past four [...]

Review – A Death-Grip On Yesterday by Atreyu
Posted November 27, 2011 by PlayPro
I’m sure everyone who was interested in getting this album, Atreyu’s third Victory Records release, read the interviews and knew what to expect. The band has no secrets here. They said to expect something darker, some parts more melodic, others more extreme, and everything in the signature Atreyu style. My first impression upon listening was: [...]

Review – The Curse by Atreyu
Posted November 27, 2011 by PlayPro
Yeah, just to tell you–as of this week, there’s about a 5% chance that my life will end. So this review is probably going to be a lot more cynical than the past ones. What is the first thing that comes to mind when on says “Orange County”? I bet lots of you are thinking [...]
