JEUNESSE APATRIDE - Larmes aux poings

June 6 2008 // Magazine // Music Reviews

By Jackie Hall - Bridge the Gap - 05/16/2008

I have a superstitious Irish granny. She believes that all bad things come in sets of three.  However, I think that her belief in the number three may also be the case for good things happening in sets of three. In the last month, I’ve been to three record release shows for three local acts and have been pleasantly surprised on all three occasions.

SUBSTANTIAL - Sacrifice

May 13 2008 // Magazine // Music Reviews

By Adrian “A-Dubs” Warner - Eclectricity - 09/11/2007

I discovered Substantial a few years ago when I saw his name on a 12” single posse cut. I found him and the others on the track to be typical, talented underground rappers. When I heard he released a full length CD, I was very intrigued. Then, when I heard the first few tracks of Sacrifice, I discovered he was perhaps a bit more talented than I thought. He has a track named “That Damn Good” and I am inclined to agree.

STREETLIGHT MANIFESTO @ Le Studio

May 6 2008 // Magazine // Concert Reviews

By Eli Levinson - Bender Night - 04/25/2008

As I came up to le Studio Juste Pour Rire on Friday April 25th to see Streetlight Manifesto, I saw something that made me apprehensive: tons of similarly dressed teenagers. They had a similar punk/suburbia/ska look to them, and you could tell they were REALLY looking forward to the show that was about to start. But how would they react? What sort of crowd would it be?
