Don’t Buy a Chibson Guitar | Feature

I really should have known it was too good to be true. A Les Paul Custom replica from China spec’d out exactly the way I wanted it. It would be a combination between my treasured 1972 Gibson Les Paul Custom and my beloved ESP Eclipse II. But much like Chelsea’s 2015-2016 campaign, while everything looked good on paper, it’s so far been a disaster.

Near Ruin – Relinquish | Guitar Cover

Hey guys! It’s been a while but I’m back and I’m now posting videos to YouTube. I told Near Ruin I’d do a cover of my favorite song off of No End (2014) a long time ago, but I just never got around to doing it until now. If you missed my review where I described it…

This past week my iTunes playlist been dominated by the likes of As I Lay Dying, August Burns Red, Killswitch Engage and…

#TBT: Nickelback… What Happened? | Op-Ed

“Not a Leader of Men” Nickelback gets a lot of flak from just about everyone nowadays. The top Urban Dictionary result is a delicious blend of musical ignorance and Canada-bashing: “Another mediocre, somewhat popular nu-metal band, this time, from Canada, which isn’t a surprise considering their musical track record (Avril [Lavigne], Celine Dion, Barenaked Ladies,…
