Geoff Barone- The Grim

One of Western New York’s most experimental and diverse artists Geoff Barone is taking yet another twist into his impressive library of music October 23rd releasing “The Grim”. What drew me in a few years ago with his release two years ago “Acquiscence” is exactly that. His cinematic […]

Turning Virtue- Beautiful

One of Buffalo’s best kept secrets prog rockers Turning Virtue is releasing their landmark album “Beautiful” tomorrow September 4th.  The band came back onto the local music scene with a vengeance with “A Temporary Human Experience” in 2016.  There were previous incarnations in the 1990’s and ATHE was the band’s […]

Dave’s 2019 Recap

Hey guys! I’m back yet again with my best of 2019 article! I’ve added some more categories yet again, so this will even further expand from 2018.  Another reminder THERE IS NO ORDER, I JUST JOTTED DOWN WHAT I LOVED THIS YEAR.  I doubt many people will even pay […]

Resurrection of the Reign

*All photos by Crown Vick Photography Two years ago, after a slew of unfortunate events unfolded, Brian Platter was faced with four vacant spaces and a tough decision to make. Surely, he could’ve chosen to put The Last Reign to rest, as most likely would have with the […]

Protopilot: Volume 1

Protopilot released this amazing offering at the end of April and I’m still not over how great of a piece of music this is.  To be honest, Buffalo isn’t full of a ton of artsy and unusual bands. Don’t get me wrong, there’s some good bands in the area….Protopilot […]

Short Attention Span Theatre

The weird Progressive/Funk/Metal/Experimental band Short Attention Span Theatre bring a much needed and fresh sound to our local Western New York music scene.  Music is watered down these days, and it’s cool to see weirder and more artistic bands slowly come out of the woodworks.  These cats draw heavy influence […]

Dave’s Best of 2018 Awards!

Hello folks! I am back with my second “Best Of” Awards article…..but with more sections to spice things up. Newcomer Vick wrote hers and I’m here with my valued or unvalued opinion with some possible bias. The numbers aren’t important in my article I DO NOT RANK I just list […]

The Return of Seplophile. Again.

Finally, I’ve gotten to see one of my favourite locals for the first time in what feels like forever. Some recuperation was necessary for them to return to the stage, but the downward spiral has finally turned upward. They have a new song, and they still remember some […]

Inertia- Teratoma

inertiametalny https://inertiametalny.bandcamp.com/releases?fbclid=IwAR3POAmnB7AqOCmBNtd_7P3YARCCCwaxI5nGwN1oEEEze_pDQkAaclLHiFw   Happy Thanksgiving loyal web creepers! Buffalo’s fine tech death/prog/experimental trio INERTIA has released a fucking monstrous full length that isn’t Weaponex. Both bands have released my two favorite offerings this year from Buffalo bands and shit is it a treat.  Let’s dive balls deep into this wild […]
