It's #BandcampFriday all day meaning you can get kick ass new music and support your faves at the same time! One we've been meaning to talk up more is the newest LP from #TheFarOut which is out now on, yep, @Bandcamp! Review, links & more: @knyvetpr #RNRF.

They just don’t make Rawk like this anymore. It’s true! This kind of supercharged fit-for-a-stadium anthem is just not the lay of the land in today’s musical climate which is why it’s so refreshing...

This is one of the MANY times we get super excited for a new release, get an early copy of said new release, then squander the lead time for said new release until it’s (almost) too late. That’s not...

The new full-length from #GreetDeath is coming sooner rather than later when #DieInLove arrives on June 27th through @deathwishinc ahead of a show at @RoyaleBoston on 9.21 supporting #NationOfLanguage! For now, though, an early #review & more: #RNRF.
rockandrollfables.com
We’ll be honest, while we like to think we have a pretty eclectic vinyl collection, we tend to not seek out rare stuff that often just because we’d rather own the physical product first, fancy stuff...

We’re obviously biased about the Boston Music Scene on the regular but, really, it’s the MA music scene as a whole that gives us all the warm and fuzzies on the regular. And it’s artists like...
