Album of the Week 5/1 - 5/7: "Before the World Was Big" by Girlpool

     Feminist-flavored, girl-empowering Rock music has been around since the "Riot Grrrl" movement in the 90s. However, in recent years, the Rock and Indie scenes have seen some very rad, very talented female-fronted bands come to fruition once again. One of these bands is Girlpool. Have you heard of them? Listened, maybe? If not, find a computer or phone fast--you don't want to miss these girls. This all-female duo from LA is here to demand your attention with what has been dubbed as "Folk Punk". The group has been known for tackling gender-based issues in the past, especially with tracks like "Slutmouth", where both ladies harmonize, "I go to school everyday/ Just to be made a housewife one day." With scathing societal commentary and a raw sound that is ever-so-pleasing to the ear (via uber-catchy riffs involving simple Folk-esque guitar), Cleo Tucker and Harmony Tividad alternate instruments and turns singing. The album has a melancholy tone, which seems to yearn for past, simpler times. With an album title like "Before the World Was Big" and album artwork that features innocent-looking children playing with toys, one can't help but feel a sense of nostalgia evoked from music that tackles societal, as well as emotional, issues--an odd mixture. 

     Girlpool is bad-ass band trying to get their message across in every song, but don't surmise that they lack sensitivity or emotional depth. Tracks like "Chinatown" perfectly encapsulate the soft, sensitive side of Girlpool. As the song laments about what seems to be a lost lover, inner demons are illustrated via dark lyrics. The second verse says, at one point, "I am nervous for tomorrow and today," as well as, "If I loved myself,/ Would I take it the wrong way?" Girlpool tackles everything in their lyrics from gender roles in modern society to lost love to issues with self-acceptance. And, all this is done with a simple, folksy, DIY-sounding form of Punk that keeps your foot tapping the entire way through the album. Girpool is going to be huge! Pick up/listen to their music now! We love them here at Multi-Fret. Check out our top 5 tracks from the album below:

Music Video: Weezer - "Thank God for Girls"

Recently, we reviewed Weezer's (the renowned LA-based Rock band) new White Album. Naturally, the band recently released some new music videos for their more popular singles. In typical Weezer fashion, none of the music videos were serious. Check out the video for "Thank God for Girls" by clicking on the link below!

Thank God for Girls - Weezer Official Video

Weezer's singer and guitarist, River Cuomo, stars in this video as a hypocritical and over-dramatic pastor.

The video seems to be strong artistic critique of hypocrisy within organized religion. The "preacher" of the church (Cuomo) is made out to be an over-the-top caricature of a televangelist, all while he enters a backroom to play cards/gamble with scantily-clad women after mass. It's safe to say that the song's title and lyrics have nothing to do with the video AT ALL. Still, the video is very cool.

Album of the Week 4/3 - 4/9: "White Album" by Weezer

   
      Last time most music lovers referred to a "white album", they were talking about The Beatles' renowned album of the same name. However, the beloved Pop-Rock/Alternative group Weezer just dropped some hot, brand-spanking new music for fans. After being known to have albums that were simply known by the names of colors before (i.e. "Blue Album" and "Red Album"), Weezer seems to wish to go back to using such a strategy for album naming, because the band released its "White Album" on April 1st. For a band that has been at the forefront of mainstream music since 1994, the group proves with their latest catalog addition that they are still very much in the business of producing songs that can make a fan of any genre start bobbing their head or tapping their foot. The album is kicked off by the fast-tempo and heavily Pop-influenced track "California Kids". In typical Weezer fashion, the band finds a way to incorporate entrancing melodies with power chord-saturated choruses that are vaguely reminiscent of 60s Surf Rock.
     The band really switches things up with track #3, "Thank God for Girls". Within a song that begins with a catchy piano melody, singer River Cuomo swiftly begins to almost rap his lyrics, all while keeping a more Pop/Alternative-driven sentiment to the listener. In addition, Weezer added some societal commentary to this album, as they have been known to do. The fifth track off of the album is extremely self-explanatory, right from its title: "Do You Wanna Get High?". The track is reminiscent of a past Weezer song, "We Are All on Drugs", and the anti-drug message behind the way the band portrays an addict's dismal day-to-day existence. With a chorus that sings, "Do you wanna get high?/ Don't need no dinner tonight," Weezer shows that they can still grab your attention with both poignant and relevant messages, as well as amazing ear candy. Check out this album, as well as our top 5 fav tracks below:

Once Again--New Music From The Deftones!!! "Doomed User" (New Single)

***New Tune Alert!***

     This Hard Rock/Metal Sacramento five-piece has been leaving a trail of bread crumbs for fans ever since they announced the debut of their upcoming album, Gore, for April 2016. Recently, the group leaked a single that followed their usual theme of weird radness, "Prayers/Triangles". The song has been eaten up by fans on YouTube, Spotify, and all sorts of other platforms. In suit, the group recently released another single, titled "Doomed User", on the Sirius satellite radio station known as Octane. This tune is heavier than the previously-released single, and packs quite a punch. Angst is immediate in the song, as singer Chino Moreno screams at the top of his lungs, "My fuse has expired!/ Just f**king leave here!" Give this new tune a listen! It is definite pump-up tuneage!

Album of the Week 3/20 - 3/26: "Joy, Departed" by Sorority Noise

     When most people hear the term "Emo", they are mentally bombarded with negative connotations. Many people stereotype the genre as a style embraced only by black eyeliner-sporting, rich kids who like to listen to The Cure and complain about their lives. However, this common stereotype is a gross misrepresentation of what Emo commonly means today; bands like Sorority Noise are hear to help reinforce that concept. Sorority Noise brings the strong sense of emotion that the term "Emo" was derived from. Songs by this group lay all the cards on the table and allow listeners to connect immediately. The first track off of the group's first full-length LP, "Joy, Departed", makes one think something along the lines of, "I see that the album title was quite literal."  The very first words are practically whispered and the low-volume chords in the background are accompanied by a beautiful section of strings. The song begs an answer to a desperate question: "Why do I compare everyone I love/ to how much I loved you?" This is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to how vividly Sorority Noise describes their "departed" joy.  Despite the word 'sorority' being in the name of the band, this 4-man group has no female members.

     However, the music is appealing to all genders and walks of life in general. The group has been known by a cult following for the past couple of years, and are finally breaking through to the mainstream. The group is even heading out on a tour headed by the more well-known Emo band Citizen, who have recently resurrected their group. Sorority Noise will examine life with you, as they do in songs like "Art School Wannabe", when singer Cameron Boucher wails a chorus that entails, "Maybe I'm my own greatest fear./ Maybe I'm just scared to admit that/ I might not be as dark as I think./ Maybe I am not the person/ That I always wanted to be."  If you are looking for some catchy tuneage that will hit you right in the feels, Sorority Noise is an amazing band to check out. We have our 5 favorite emotional bombshells of tracks below:

New Single and Video from Highly Suspect - "Serotonia"

Singer and Guitarist, Johnny Stevens--Star of the Video

   

     Remember Highly Suspect?! If not, let us refresh your memory: The band put out a killer album, "Mister Asylum" (which we gave a 5/5 in an Album of the Week post), that came out in July and shook up the Bluesy-Rock world. They were also up for two Grammy nominations: Best Rock Album and Best Rock Song. Though the NYC three-piece didn't bring any Grammys home, they certainly aren't putting their instruments away to regroup. On February 29, the group released a new video for a single called "Seretonia", which the group had only previously played live. Now, the studio version of the song is available while watching the video, as well as on sources such as Spotify and iTunes. For those of us that love songs with meaningful lyrics, this song has your back. The singer, Johnny Stevens (who also stars alone as the main focus of the video) uses the song to lament about what seems to be a feeling of stagnancy and apathy that has permeated his soul while living in New York City. The very first lines of the song use playfully-dark sarcasm as Stevens declares, "I wish everyone I knew was dead,/So that I'd never have to pick up the phone." As previously mentioned, the video only stars Stevens, mostly in close-ups. He is juxtaposed from two different places, which appear to be a snowy rooftop in NYC and a desert in California (where he claims to want to go). If you like Highly Suspect, are looking for new music, or just want some new Bluesy riffs rocking your ears, we urge you to check this video out on YouTube. Check it out below!!!

Album of the Week 3/6 - 3/12: "Threat to Survival" by Shinedown

     Shinedown is a four-piece Hard Rock group from Jacksonville, FL that has always been known for hard-hitting tunes. However, no one expected them to launch an all-out musical siege on Rock airwaves when they started leaking singles over the summer, and leaving fans of the new tunes impatiently awaiting the release of their new album, "Threat to Survival". The LP finally dropped in September and fans (like us) had already memorized lyrics to singles like the hard-hitting and revolution-themed track "Cut the Cord". The track, which is arguably one of the best on the album, begs listeners not to blindly conform to society as it repeatedly shouts, "Don't be a casualty!/Cut the cord!" The group hadn't released anything fresh since 2012, and Shinedown is certainly making uo for lost time with their songs that are hybrids of catchy hooks, lyrics that provoke thought, and hard-hitting chords. Be sure to cut your cord and check out the new tunes below, which are Multi-Fret's top 5 fav tracks.

Cut the Cord

Album of the Week 2/28 - 3/5: "Sore" by Dilly Dally

     Been missing the weirder aspect of Rock n' Roll in the mainstream? The Toronto-based, mostly-female, brash Alternative Rock group Dilly Dally is here for you. Many critics have been comparing the group to The Pixies, and, if you know The Pixies, it's quite easy to see why. In similar fashion, Dilly Dally features loud, distorted, and seemingly-out-of-control-guitars. And, the lyrics are even more bizarre than the some of the composition. However, this doesn't detract from the music one bit. While following the comparison to The Pixies, the weirdness works. In fact, it's damn refreshing. The single "Desire" has been picked up by Alternative radio stations, and has even scored its own music video. The album artwork is disturbing and creepy, but evokes a definite need to ponder what's going on. Similarly, with an album name like "Sore", most listeners most likely feel the need to mull things over in their head. As we do just that as listeners, this female-fronted group demands our attention. The track "Purple Rage" is a perfect representation of the album as a whole. The intro kicks off with chords blow your hair back. Right away, vocals come in with an aggressive tone, and there is plenty of Punk-esque shrieking. Front woman Katie Monks declares with authority and angst, "I've got that purple raaaaage!" And, something about the sincerity of her tone makes listeners believe her. The album ranges from angsty (with tracks like "Purple Rage") to vulnerable and damaged (with tracks like "Burned By the Cold"). Check this tuneage out and find some refreshment in a newly-directed form of musical angst. Our fav five songs are listed below for suggestion:

Ballin Chain

Desire

Purple Rage

The Touch

Burned By the Cold

Album of the Week 2/21 - 2/27: Drones by Muse

     Muse are far from new to the music scene; they've been grabbing our attention via our ears for years. However, unlike some of their counterparts in the industry, Muse hasn't grown the least bit stale over their run. If anything, they've honed their skills and become ten times more potent in their bad-assery. After nabbing the Grammy win for Best Rock Album last week, it only seemed fitting that this British three-piece receive a review from Multi-Fret that we have been planning on for some time now. The album artwork is cynical and dark--this is blatantly indicative of what the album holds for listeners. For example, on the song "Psycho", there is a sample of an irate drill sergeant commanding what sounds to be a soldier-in-training to yell that he is a "psycho killer". Distressed, the trainee screams back verbatim, "I AM A PSYCHO KILLER!!!" This is only one instance of many within the album that carry an unapologetic societal commentary on how we have all become "drones", if you will. There are also tracks lasting under a minute of more drill sergeant tirades and a sample of a JFK speech. There is certainly a political twist on the commentary from Muse here.  Despite the dark themes, the music is pure ear candy. Be sure to play this album loud and thank your lucky stars that Muse is still pumping out sick tuneage. Our top 5 fav songs off the album are listed below:

Defector

Reapers 

Psycho 

Dead Inside

Revolt 

We give this album a 4.5/5, and urge you to pick up a physical copy, or just stream it whenever you get the chance!

Album of the Week 2/14 - 2/20: Mister Asylum by Highly Suspect

     If you haven't heard of Highly Suspect yet, you will very, very soon. Just like last week, this week's Album of the Week was released in 2015. It was released last July, actually. However, the band is really starting to gain some traction within this year. They're up for Grammy nominations, and will also be performing at the upcoming Grammys, too. This Bluesy-Rock trio from NYC is sure to blow your back with their unique way of crafting songs that can be rebellious and personal. Regardless of the subject matter, it's musically pleasing and in your face. The band's breakthrough single, "Lydia" received non-stop rotation at radio stations after their newest album (pictured above), Mister Asylum, was released. "Lydia" is definitely an attention-grabber; it's dark, dismal, primal, and Blues-inspired. However, this is certainly not the only track worth mentioning. Below are the Multi-Frette Gazette's voted-on favs:

Bath Salts

We gave this album a 5/5, and hope you do, as well! Be sure to check out Highly Suspect, whether it's with their Grammy performance or at a place on your Spotify account. Stream the entire album using the YouTube playlist below:

New Music! Deftones Release New Single From Upcoming Album!

***New Tune Alert***

     Despite the recent death of the Deftones' former bassist and a close brush with death in Paris, the Sacramento five-piece has proven that tragedy and danger don't phase them! The band has already released the date of their newest upcoming album, Gore, for April. However, it seems the band has been eager to give fans something to tide our ears over. Recently, the group released their first single from the upcoming LP, titled "Prayers/Triangles". It is clear that the Deftones are sticking to their staple of odd and vague lyrics/song titles. The track certainly makes the album seem like something to look forward to. Check out the single for yourself below with the official audio video from YouTube!

Album of the Week 2/7 - 2/14: Tell Me I'm Pretty by Cage the Elephant

     For all of you Indie Rock fans out there that have been chomping at the bit for a new favorite album, look no further! Kentucky-based Indie band Cage the Elephant sent 2015 packing with a bang, as they released this newest LP in mid-December. The staff here at The Multi-Fret Gazette have had the album streaming non-stop lately, and it's an all-around favorite in the office. Hell, it's not hard to see why! The album, whose title in itself is a brilliant work of societal satire, kicks off with the catchy, off-the-wall first chords of "Cry Baby". Following the cynical tone of the album title, this first track even has an embedded line that declares,"We all have something important to say/But talking's a waste of time." The track is followed by the swift-tempo'd chorus and guitar riff of the latest Rock radio staple "Mess Around".  The album is killer throughout all ten tracks, but, as music lovers and critics, we narrowed down some favorites that we recommend you check out.  The Multi-Fret favs are below:

Mess Around
Sweetie Little Jean
Cold, Cold, Cold
Punchin' Bag
Portuguese Knife Fight

Check out this album, which is sure to rack up some awards this year! We give it a 5/5! Stream the entire album below:
