Jonah Carden- The Great Depression

It has been my intention to review this album for quite a while now.  One might assume that I would review it only to give my good buddy Jonah an ego boast regardless of what I actually thought about it but that's not true.  If the album sucked I would simply just leave it alone.  Fact is, the album does not suck, and in fact is the most solid album Jonah has been involved with to date.  The actual reason I want to review it is because it is so good and I hate that it is going without any attention being paid to it.  Indeed, the nine songs found on this album are so on par with anything available within this genre from signed artists that it annoys me that it's not being heard by the people that will appreciate them.  Of course, I highly doubt that me writing this will at all change this situation but if I can get any body else at all to check this music out it'd be worth it.

Metalliance Tour Review 03/22/11

Being a fan of Crowbar I was aware of the Metalliance Tour for some time now.  It started off as a tour featuring a band I love and one I'm not too familiar with at all, Helmet.  Later, Saint Vitus and Kylesa sweetened the pot even more, not to mention some other bands that I was less familiar with but had heard good things about.  I had just assumed that this tour was some time away and would probably only be on the west coast anyway.  Needless to say I was pretty pumped when I saw a post on Crowbar's Facebook page that said they were going to be in Greensboro, North Carolina that night.  Not only was that in my area but it was actually closer than the last Crowbar show I went to.
