StrangeJuice - Arctic Tundra

I would have placed this in my best of 2018 albums except it is not mixed well. It clips and breaks up in louder sections and is just generally unpleasant to listen to. If you persevere the songs are as good as any StrangeJuice recording. It is just poorly recorded.

Kate Pierson - Guitars and Microphones

Nothing like a little controversy to kick off album sales. Personally I love Kate Pierson and her unflappable upbeat attitude. At least her public persona is of a person that chooses to see what is good in life and tries her best to elevate those around her. She doesn't appear to take the downturns in life too seriously but rather focuses on how we can turn these things around, see them in perspective, and move on to the next better thing as quickly as possible. I think if she were my friend she would generally recommend a night of dancing as a remedy to most of life complexities... and I think she would be right. This record fits perfectly in line with that perception.

Bitter Fruit - "It Gets Worse"

I don't like every punk band I hear and I can't exactly describe why I like one and not another. Bitter Fruit fills a void for me I haven't had an entry in for a long, long time. The sound is grungy and dark, harboring anger with a sense of humor. The artwork of member Jack Bradley immediately drew me in. The use of brilliant colors on images of violence, horror and grossness is intriguing and attention getting. The band's sound echos these images in capturing both the angst and the luminescence of life.
