Angry Planet - One Day He Could Save The World

Kentucky's Angry Planet released One Day He Could Save The World last October. An album full of potential radio hits, if this is any indication of their live shows, you need to see these guys.

Starting out stong, there's pure, raw energy in the vocals is the first thing I noticed in "[-----]"

"As Good As It Gets" has an uplifting, albeit cocky as hell, feel to it, as it proclaims, "I'm sorry I'm as good as it gets (but I am)".

"Someone, Somewhere" is a sweet alt-rock power ballad.

"For Jennifer" is a bit softer, with some piano to accompany a beautiful and sweet love song.

"The Storm" kicks the energy back up, with a catchy tune that feels like it came straight out of the '95-'05 era.

"A Memory" is a quieter song, more stripped down with just a guitar and some soft vocals.

"WhenWarComes" is another high-energy song. To be honest, I couldn't understand most of the lyrics on this one, but I still loved the instrumentals.

"All Our Lives (Underground)" is a headbanging song that takes me back to the early 2000s.

"Faith" has some more of those powerful vocals, with some lyrics of longing. Another great power ballad.

"The Love Song" brings back the piano for another softer tune, with more of those powerful vocals. A great combination that really expresses the emotions here.

"White" is upbeat and catchy, with a nice hook and lots of instrumentals.

"Time" is a bunch of ambient noises.

"Nothing To Write Home About" is another high-energy song, with a changing, but catchy, hook. It's a great end to a solid debut album that is sure to become a classic. I can't wait to see what's in store for this band, as any of these songs could easily be big radio hits. Angry Planet has a very strong sound, that makes me reminiscent of late 90s/early 2000s alternative rock classics.

New Neighbors

Cleveland, OH indie-rock band, New Neighbors, released their latest, self-titled album this past March, and it's pretty fucking good.

"Following Along" is both smooth and rocking, and has some deep thoughts.

"Planetary Motion" is straight up sick jams.

"Stay" is one of those super catchy, late 90s/early 2000s sounding song that starts right off the bat with a great hook.

"Breathing Room" is full of energy and is sure to get you moving, you know, in case you weren't already.

"From the Bottom" has a sick riff, with a sweet breakdown.

"Incantation (Interlude)" is a bit slower, with some smooth trumpet overlaid on some rocking drums, and a hypnotic guitar riff.

"Overseas" is another solid track, with an sweet solo.

"Together" has some killer drums, is one of the first things that stands out on this track. The vocals have the feel of a dream when they first come in. Kind of a longer-ish song (7 minutes), my favorite part of it is the middle.

"Something To Blame" has a great opening hook that leads into a great song. Kinda has a pop-punk feel to it, in my opinion, and that's not a bad thing.

"Together: Mvmt II" brings back the trumpet on another version of "Together" to pull the album to a close.

If this album is any indication of their live shows, you probably don't wanna Miss an opportunity to see these guys. New Neighbors is full of energy, sick jams, and some thought-provoking lyrics that you're sure to love. Get your copy on Bandcamp, today!
