Based out of Nashville, Tennessee, with this album the duo of Ryan Alexander and Dan Diaz continue their journey which they state is “to make the world a better place,” specifically through music. A bold statement but filled with proof after hearing the different tracks on this album.

There are new sounds to be heard throughout the album from the first track “Skulls” that opens in brief acapella to the last “Judas” with a harsh closing statement of “I am not damaged, just discouraged.”Ellen Hamilton · Apr 3, 2017MusicAlbum Review: Bones Muhroni– GroundedFor the first time going into the recording process, Crew Reinstra found himself the principal songwriter for Bones Muhroni.Jed Murphy · Apr 3, 2017MusicAlbum Review: Shady Elders–Inside VoicesInside Voices is the debut, full-length album from the Denver based quartet, Shady Elders.Noel Billups · Mar 1, 2017MusicAlbum Review: STRFKR–Being No One, Going NowhereSTRFKR’s fourth album Being No One, Going Nowhere is named after Ayya Khema’s popular book on meditation.Apryl Carnahan · Mar 1, 2017MusicThe Unlikely Candidates – Bed of Liars EPThe Unlikely Candidates new EP Bed of Liars arrives in style.Andrew Stiegler · Mar 1, 2017MusicOne Flew West – Ten Years Later/All In My Head: ReviewOne Flew West is flying into the public eye, and fast.BandWagon Magazine · Mar 1, 2017
