Persevering to Preserve African Culture: A Celebration of Black History Month on Campus
Performers and audiences unite to commemorate the start of this year’s Black History Month.
Killer Klassix: Dance Gavin Dance – “Whatever I Say Is Royal Ocean EP”
Though there is a large lack of belief in a higher power or faith, the EP makes a very successful effort to highlight the inner turmoil of the human psyche.
Killer Klassix: Dance Gavin Dance- “Demos” EP
It’s something interesting to follow a band from their initial demos to being one of the biggest bands in the scene and only generating a bigger and bigger fan base.
Killer Klassix: Hands Like Houses -; “Snow Sessions” (Re-Imagining of Ground Dweller)
In the case of “Snow Sessions,” Hands Like Houses is made up for every artist who ever took advantage of the onlooker, breathing life and meaning into every note, chord, frame and melody composed for the four-track experience that is this EP.
Killer Klassix: First Class – “Somewhere In The Grey”
I guess if there is another EP that I found more human in its emotional exploration for finding middle ground, its title provides enough of an answer.
Killer Klassix: Tsunami Bomb – “The Invasion From Within” EP
The EP serves as an example of how truly terrifying the world is.
Killer Klassix: Alkaline Trio- “For Your Lungs Only” EP
Alkaline Trio cultivated a tight-knit cult-ish following with their emotionally apathetic lyrics, ironic themes, emotional, sludge-like punk rock sound and overall dark tones.
Killer Klassix: Jamie’s Elsewhere – “Unreleased Sessions” EP
"Unreleased Sessions" is a great example of a band’s attempt to rebrand and reestablish.
Killer Klassix: Showoff “Waiting For You EP”
Showoff continues to adapt to the times, doing it in their own style and showing bands outside of Chicago, punk never dies.
Love Your Inhospitable Lands; An Analysis of Mitski’s New Album
In her seventh studio album, “The Land is Inhospitable and So Are We," Mitski encourages the listener to reckon with worlds above, around, and within them as she explores themes of love, pain, and the complexities of the human experience.
Killer Klassix: The Story So Far: “Five Songs” EP
The band not only capitalizes on progress, but ropes listeners into a philosophy that proves fruitful not just in their art, but as a means to ignite a fire of hope in themselves to do the same.
Killer Klassix: Attack Attack; “Someday Came Suddenly”
It may be bad, but it still gained notoriety and was an honest attempt for the band to springboard into their sophomore effort with a more finely tuned approach, but that’s for another day.
