It's a catch 22 in the music industry. Drift too far from your core sound and people throw a fit. Stay too close to your core sound for too long and people tend to get bored.

The key, I think, is to experiment with sounds without trying to emulate them. Alter Bridge did this very well on Fortress. Subtle with occasionally something really out there, like the intro of Calm the Fire.

Owl City - Up All Night

I don't say this quite often as I used to, but I feel Owl City has been that sort of music that has really help me cope with how life has been developing and forming for me nowadays. Pretty calming music to listen to and pass the time.

Good for middle of the night insomnia as I listen to the furnace struggle to keep up with the cold. If you can catch Neko Case, Kelly Hogan, and the band live, do it.

Fall Out Boy's Mania album. The 1st album released in 2018 that I have listened to.

I can't believe I'm starting the year off with Fall Out Boy, but here we are.

Walking Paper's WP2 album. The 2nd album released in 2018 that I have listened to.

Well, after really not liking the new Fall Out Boy album, I'm glad I can really get the year going with new Walking Papers.

Backbone slams, and The Heaviest Matter Of the Universe is one of the heaviest fucking things ever, as the title states! They have massive riffs.

Currently digging Sylosis quite a bit. Just found out about them from the singer/guitarist joining Architects.

Mercy - Sylosis. I love the modern thrash thing this band has going on.
