Here are all the posts and reviews from the last week:

Jess reviewed American Dollar’s A Memory Stream for your weekly fix of post-rock.

Chad VanGaalen’s album Soft Airplane is awesome. Tons of feedback + disagreement for giving the album a 4.25 out of 5… Was I too harsh?

Coko profiled Cori Green a local R&B artist.

Matt covered The Dutchess and The Duke’s She’s the Dutchess and He’s The Duke. I love the photo he uses.

Josh reviews Eric Hutchinson’s popular Sounds Like This.

I reviewed Okkervil River’s The Stand Ins. A little bit of a miss but they are still one of my favorite bands.

Joe covers The Ready Set. Judging from his picture, they man could eat some more junk.

Adrian covered Scars on Broadway’s self titled release. For you System of A Down fans.

I reviewed the Stars’ Sad Robots EP. Solid little disc you can get on Itunes or on tour.

Lu reviews The Swear’s Hotel Rooms and Heart Attacks.

Christian covered The Verve’s Forth. People say a lot of great things about The Verve but outside of Bittersweet Symphony, I haven’t really heard many other songs.

Young Sensation’s Kitty Magic EP is a nice little EP.

Reminder: Metro Station contest ends next week!

Friend, Zack reviewed the Virgin Festival finally.

New around the blogosphere and such and such:
Jenny Lewis’ album was streaming on her myspace. Release date is Sept 23rd.. I can’t wait, I’m in love with her. To be honest I didn’t check out Rabbit Fur Coat since my ex said it sucked…she listens to Britney Spears now so I took some great advice! Snob’s Music (from Toronto) gave it a 5.5.

Metallica’s Death Magnetic hit stores with some good reviews. I still hate their stance on P2P etc. Hopefully one of our writers will pick this up (hint hint: Adrian).

Kanye West was arrested for “having issues” with the paparazzi. He also managed to post 10 posts during the same day *cough* ghost writers *cough* on his blog. Hot Biscuits burned Kanye West saying the only time he’s acceptable is when is not on a track and links to an instrumental track of Love Lockdown…hilarious.

Coldplay is somehow on the new guitarhero. Bands like Interpol long deserved to be on there but come on Coldplay… who really rocks on pretending to play a Coldplay riff*?

Captain Melody loves the new Emiliana Torrini album. I personally would take Lykke Li over her… maybe because Lykke Li is so hot (yes I’m shallow).
