Rocked: Circa Survive - Violent Waves

On the heels of promoting and releasing their own album, Circa Survive succeeds in releasing a sweeping soundtrack that may stand as its most complete record ever.  Violent Waves delivers on many different levels, but it's the entire album as a whole that makes it stand tall in the alt rock scene.

Rocked: Owl City - The Midsummer Station

Owl City's new album The Midsummer Station is not what you would expect from one of the best live performing bands in the alternative genre.  While sparks of creativity are seen, the majority of the album is as bland as lukewarm milk.  Maybe there is more inspiration behind what is being presented, but as a whole this album doesn't deliver the bang for the buck.

Rocked: In This Moment - Blood


In This Moment's new album "Blood" delivers on many levels.  Whether it is empowerment, adrenaline, or driving rhythmic sound, Blood will give you what you need.  The end of the album features a fantastic cover and after a full listen, you'll see why this album confirms this group as a staple in the rock scene.

Rocked: 10 Years - Minus The Machine


The review for 10 Years' Minus The Machine.  A solid album that has a range of moods.  It's hard to say whether the full rock audience will accept it as the next big album, but Minus The Machine will definitely hit well with 10 Years fans and anyone who enjoys a good alternative sound.
