Tyrants: GhostMouth EP

Valerie
There are times when you simply want to take out your music player and listen to the loudest record you have on there. GhostMouth EP from Tyrants would make good company for these kinds of afternoon. The London, hardcore four-piece released this mini compilation back in 2011. It served as a follow-up to their self-titled debut released earlier that same year. GhostMouth EP showcases some raw and energy-driven orgy of guitars, drums and shouting vocals that the band has pretty much gotten down to a tee.

Bomberman vs Zombies

Frostech
Another game to satisfy the gaming hunger of Blackberry users. Bomberman Vs Zombie is quite a fancy name for a Blackberry device, but it really is interesting and amazing in its own right! Bomberman Vs Zombies was developed by Contlex Labs LLP and they have really done a great job to say the least. The developer has created a number of titles for the Blackberry and Android devices and it comes as no surprise why they are popular among its users.

London: 4:20 The Album

Monica
In Hip Hop, it’s always been refreshing when a certain artist takes a new approach on a worn-out subject. In 4:20 The Album, hip hop and r&b sensation London transposes the idea of drugs into different soundscapes. Influenced with a cohesive theme, What You Smoking On welcomes the listener with heart-pumping drum beats. London’s stellar vocals blend smoothly with danceable beats.

Simple Comic

Mel
There are many comic readers for the Mac, but Simple Comic from Dancing Tortoise is a cut above most. Not only is it free, but it makes comic reading easy and comfortable. The program’s strength lies in the simple interface and how simple it is to move among pages. After opening the app, you have the option to load two pages or center it. You can browse pages using its scrollbar. Simple Comic will display thumbnails. This is a very convenient feature that will save you time from going back and forth.

Swear and Shake: Maple Ridge

Monica
If Bon Iver and The Carpenters had a love child, then it will definitely be Swear and Shake. Their new musical venture, Maple Ridge, paints a fresh new color to the somehow predictable indie folk landscape. Hailing from New York, the band is composed of Kari Spieler, Adam McHeffey, Shaun Savage, and Thomas Elefante. The quartet was formed last 2010 upon an encounter between Kari and Adam who then recruited two of his long-time friends Shaun and Tom. After that, the rest is history filled with live performances, tours across the US, and opening acts for big musicians like Alison Krauss and Ray LaMontagne.

Grenadine: Grenadine

Valerie
Grenadine is the solo project of French musician, Julie Branet. Initially trained as a violist, she started writing songs and became active with her music career in 2008. This self-titled debut carries four of her lovely tracks. Her upbeat and sweet French pop style is reminiscent of Canadian singer-songwriter, Feist, bearing catchy pop rhythms you'd want to spend time with on laid back happy days. She's also been touring to promote her sound. According to her bio, she's shared the stage with artists like Heart and The Pirate Husky.

The Gift

Monica
This sci-fi film set in Russia is one testament that anything belonging to the genre may not just be about a thrilling display of robots and time machines as products of humans and science and technology. The Gift got an excellent direction from Carl E. Rinsch as he first set the mood of the story in a quite silent and menacing way – with a man holding the gift, extravagantly wrapped in red and gold, and travelling towards a house where the peak of the action finally begins.

The Black Atlantic: Darkling, I Listen

Valerie
The Black Atlantic is no stranger to the pages of the Frostclick blog, their previous record, Reverence for Fallen Trees, was featured here before. Despite their rather melodic folk sound, they list metal bands like Slayer and Metallica as among their influences on their Facebook page. Whether it's a tongue-in-cheek name drop or not, if you listened to Darkling, I Listen; it's hard to find these influences. They don't seem to need it though since the group is fully capable of mesmerizing their audience with their subdued indie folk ensembles.
