Diablo Swing Orchestra “The Butcher’s Ballroom” – history-rich music fusion to make you dance the night away

hailey
Finding some music album which has everything from rock to swing, metal to opera, and different languages altogether? If you can't imagine how those genres would sound when mixed together, then listen to The Butcher's Ballroom - and simply shock yourself. Played by the Diablo Swing Orchestra, these 13 tracks would surely make you want to boogie all night, while at the same time let your big brother bang his head and start a mosh pit. With rich melodies, a powerful opera voice and eclectic sounds, The Butcher's Ballroom is sure to make ballroom nights different - don't say we didn't warn you.

Bring out those funky electric guitars and start the head bang, Inward Eye gives back to their fans through their debut EP.

Jabberheads “Stories Collection” – a refreshing rock album from an experimental Ukrainian band

iceb0x
They may be from Ukraine, but that doesn’t mean they can only conquer their own country; Jabberheads are here to rule the airwaves with their album, “Stories Collection.” This album is amazingly beautiful. Packed with 10 Indie Rock tracks that you will surely love, whether or not you are a fan of the genre. Jabberheads does not only concentrate on the said genre, this album also exhibits some astonishing acoustic guitar play and body bouncing bass thud. You can say that they’re into some Acoustic and Reggae, but I think the synthesis of genres developed into only one thing, the “Jabberheads’ Rock.”

Keith Morris & The Crooked Numbers “Live Candy”

Marvin
The neat thing about the net label Clinical Archives is that I never know quite what I am going to hear. After all, who would have thought that mixed in with all the avant-garde, electronica, and experimental music would be this very down-home country EP that reeks of dogwood, cicadas and Hank Williams. Live Candy gives us a very live and very authentic country honky-tonk experience that defines the terms “Alt-country” and “Americana”.
