HAMMER WE MISS YOU
Hard to believe that in a few months we’ll be witnessing the 3 year anniversary of Jay’s passing. We can’t help but wonder how different things would be if he were still around…. but before we go on too far a tangent of how we miss him – let’s talk about the Better Than Something…
BACK FOR BLOOD
Well this one totally snuck up on us, but Tic Tac Totally just announced the release of the brand new LP from Austin’s OBN IIIs. It comes out in a couple weeks and if it’s anything like last year’s The One And Only then it’ll definitely be a chart-topper around here. We’ve yet to hear…
THANKS GUYS
Last week the Nashville Scene put out their annual “Best of Nashville” issue and we were lucky enough to get a mention in there as one of Nashville’s best music blogs. Thanks! We do what we can – but we’re down to always try even harder. Do yourself a favor and go snag the latest…

Yesterday Ty and the band made an appearance on Chicago’s WGN Morning News to…
WITH A SCREAMING SKULL
Next week we’ll be getting two new 7″ releases from SubPop: one from King Tuff and one from Total Control [we already mentioned that one a little while back if you remember] The new King Tuff single is the first offering since the release of his self-titled album that came out toward the tail end…
SUGAR, SUGAR
You know, with all the hubbub and press Nashville has been getting for being the best city ever [which we totally agree with] you would think that we wouldn’t still have to wait forever to get movies. But we do. Searching For Sugar Man opens this Friday October 5th at The Belcourt as a part…
