Album Review: Blue October – Approaching Normal
If you come into a Blue October album expecting anything other than pure emotion being poured out of the mouth of lead singer Justin Furstenfeld, you’re in the wrong place. This “emo” style of writing and singing has caused the band to be received awfully by many in the music business, but has also gained [...]
Method Man & Redman tease Blackout 2
Way back in October, Method Man & Redman officially confirmed that they were at work on Blackout 2, the long-awaited sequel to their 1999 debut, Blackout.

Grampall Jookabox now just Jookabox
The last 12 months have been solid for David “Moose” Adamson, the creative force behind Grampall Jookabox. He offered up a brand new studio album, Ropechain, unveiled his very own video game, and even earned our seal of approval. So, it comes as a bit of surpirse to hear that Adamson has decided to drop [...]

Icons of Rock: Bob Stinson
Here at CoS, one band that constantly pops up in our favorites is no other than the Minneapolis, Minnesota quartet that was The Replacements. Led by virtuoso singer/songwriter Paul Westerberg, there’s no denying the group’s legacy and the influence it contributed to the alternative rock genre that breeds new bands to this day (my own [...]

Through encounters with others, he gradually learns to ?nd peace with losses he’s experienced and those yet to come. No, this isn’t [...]
Split Lip/Chamberlain announces reunion plans
Split Lip (later known as Chamberlain) is one of those band’s you’ve probably been listening to for quite a long time, only you probably have never realized. Hell, it wasn’t until underground music aficionado, aka our own Matt Friedman, first mentioned the band’s reunion intentions back in November that yours truly actually learned of the [...]
