Matt Koelsch & The Allies
Epic Summer

Review: Deleted Scenes – Lithium Burn
April 11th, 2014 by WLOY Staff
Deleted Scenes
Lithium Burn
[itunes link=”https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/stutter/id849290293?uo=4″ title=”Lithium Burn”]
Grade: A
Deleted Scene’s new album, set to release April 15 definitely captures the essence of their music-art rock. Melodic rhythms, infused with some math rock, helps set this band apart from others. This album definitely demonstrates are much this band has grown, how mature they are and how knowledge/talented they are on their instruments. Lithium Burn also gives you a very pop sound, heard on the title track ” Haircuts/Uniforms.” Read the rest of this entry »

Night Riots
Young Lore
[itunes link=”https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/young-lore/id683489785?uo=4″ title=”Young Lore EP “]
Grade: A
California rocker, Night Riots self-funded this amazing EP. Young Lore is just 6 songs of absolute fun-it combines, harmonic vocals, solid drumming and simple yet amazing guitar riffs. The saying, “simple is better” really defines these indie rocker, though each song is clearly thought out, none of the songs are over produced instrumental wise. Read the rest of this entry »
