If you like Yellowcard, or if I Love Monsters was your favorite of the Free Credit Score (dot com) band finalists, then you should check out Airplane Noise, an up-and-coming band out of New Jersey.  The pop-punk group consists of Kevin Centofanti on bass and keyboard, John McMonagle on keyboard and trombone, Mike Mikowicz on drums and accordion, [...]

Chali 2na (aka Charles Stewart) was a founding member of groundbreaking hip-hop group Jurassic 5. Fish Market Part 2 marks his fourth solo effort. Fish Market Part 2 isn’t without some charms, though it tends to be a bit repetitive with many songs having a similar beat and the lyrics coming off a bit too [...]
