Goodbye Blogspot!

After a long dry spell on this blog, I've come to the realization that the format of random album reviews has me uninspired to keep on posting. But rather than quit altogether, I decided to start a new music blog on Tumblr where I'll be focusing on new music that I'm really passionate about. There will still be some reviews, although probably shorter and less analytical, the purpose of this new blog will be to share new music with other music lovers, as well as continuing to be an outlet for my own obsession.

Reviewing random albums was a challenge, and it was fun for a little while. But I'm simply too caught up with new music to keep on digging into the archives of my music library and often forcing myself to care. Thanks to anyone who read and/or enjoyed my blog posts on this site, and I hope you follow me into the new year with my new blog at http://headphonereverence.tumblr.com

Something New

This weekend I'll be driving through the Rockies to Canada's mystical rain-drenched land of live music and seafood: Vancouver. It's BeatRoute Magazine's 5 year anniversary, and to celebrate they're throwing a party, a weekend-long festival to be exact. I'm driving all this way to see one band in particular: United Nations. It's not that I'm some snob who is only gonna show up for one band at a festival. Sadly it's a matter of getting time off work and travelling from 10 hours away. But for those in the area, I'm envious. The entire weekend looks packed with amazing artists and live sets.

Regardless, I believe this is gonna be one kick-ass show and as such I'm going to try my first live show review. If this goes well and I have fun writing it, I might try some local write-ups when I get back. Who knows? The world is my oyster. Here's a jaw-dropping track from UN's latest masterpiece, The Next Four Years.
