Anywhere But Here

        It's SafetySuit Saturday again except that this week there's actually an update on their work. The release date for their "On Your Side" single is set for a December 3rd release now (though it was previously set for an October release so I'm not going to hang too much hope on that announcement).

      The composition is, as always, awesome, the lyrics are great, and though it does veer a little towards too overly cheesy for me at times, it's still good.

Criminal

       That soulful melody (it's a perfect mix of rock and blues) with those fantastic lyrics ("and I'm the only one who ever believed in you, I always saw you through the toughest of times, that's my style. You were broke, you were tired, you were cold, you were living the life and, and I'll be with you 'til the end", "hello, am I coming in clear girl, take a look in the mirror, I know you don't like what you see, slip away, slip away, for a moment not a day, it's alright child", and that entire chorus) and those rich vocals (oh, those vocals) have me addicted to every song from this band.

       Watch the music video for "Criminal" below and get their last album, City of Sound, from their website (link below) or iTunes now.

Sunshine

       I wish I didn't have to wait until January to share my interview with Maggie McClure with you guys because she's super nice and her down to Earth nature only makes her music that much better.

       Basically, all you need to know right now (because it's all I can really share) is that her music is great. The compositions are put together beautifully, the lyrics are thought out and read honestly, and this track in particular should just make you happy. It's short and sweet, so listen to it on repeat.

       Her upcoming album, Time Moves On, will be released in February and I can tell you, for sure, that you're going to want to get your copy as soon as it drops, because her music continues to evolve and it just keeps getting better with each new album.

       Check out the artist in the links below and support her by buying the songs you like on iTunes (if you don't know which to go for, I would suggest "Out of My Mind", "Believe", or "Everything We Don't Say").

Item No. 9

       All I can really remember from the guy who tried to make me like hardcore is that there is a lot of screaming (and not good rock yelling but straight up screaming) and I just can't get into it. 

       That being said, the lyrics are good, the composition is actually really great and, if I can like it while not being a fan of the genre (at all), then it's good. 

       Head to iTunes to get Neutral Ground; or at least check out a few tracks and decide whether or not it's your style. If you've been a fan for a while though, know that there is a new lead singer on this album, so listen before you buy.
