Hall of Awesome is back and this time the nominee is Chevelle and their hit album Wonder Whats Next.  This album was a major hit, unleashing 4 singles that charted and selling over a million copies.  We break down all the monster moments on this album and check out what we picked for Rock Hard Track!  Will this album gain the Seal of Immortality?  ... We shall see....

Just the wheel was gracious this week and gave us A side/B side.  Our favorite game to play where we pick one of two choices as our preference.  Agree... Disagree.... let us know!

Cheers!

Its another tuesday evening and we all know what that means... a new installment of the Cantina Review.  This week we get a new offering from long established rock band Alkaline Trio.  Their new album delivers on many levels and has a good hold on the Alkaline staple sound while still being able to get some new feels in.  Definitely an album worth checking out... Monster Moments? Rock Hard Tracks?  Check out the episode for all that goodness.

We spin Just the Wheel and get our least favorite Trivia.  But it's probably your favorite since we sound so terrible at it.  Enjoy!

Cheers!

Whats going down Cantina Crew?  We are excited to dive into the debut album from Hundred Suns called "Prestaliis".  This band band is a rocking trio comprised of members from established acts Norma Jean and Every Time I Die.  Although, a bit of departure from the hardcore sound of the aforementioned acts this record still pumps out some heavy riffage and serious grooves.  It's all wrapped up with some strong vocal performances and serious drum work, this album definitely delivers.  What did the guys think about it? What was the Six Pack Rating?  Check out the episode for that and more.

Just The Wheel was feeling friendly this week and delivered our favorite game A/side, B/side.  You know our questions can be ridiculous so definitely check out those answers and let us know what you would choose!

Thanks for listening.  Please subscribe, rate and review!! 

Cheers!

Another week has gone by and we know you have been patiently waiting for a new episode of the Cantina Review.  Well wait no longer.  We are bringing you an in depth review of "Sleeping Through The War" by All Them Witches.  This band is hard to nail down, they take influence from many places, but predominantly they mix stoner rock, ambience, and blues all in one crazy, fun package.  The guys talk about their initial reactions as well as Monster Moments and of course Rock Hard Tracks.  Check out what they picked.. do you agree??

Just the Wheel is a cruel cruel wheel and keeps dishing out the Trivia. Can Jay Bray and Davis do better this time? Shouldn't be hard to beat the high score of 1.  Find out, on this weeks episode.

Please subscribe, rate and review!

Cheers!

Its Tuesday, you know what that means... a brand new episode of the Cantina Review!  We're bringing you Coldfront this week.  A pop-punk band from the great white north... Canada... not Hoth.  This album offers alot of big hooks and catchy tunes.  Throw in some nice guitar riffs and you've got a solid album.  Although there is some difference in opinion in how the album scores the Six Pack Rating, check out the episode for the juicy debate...

Just the Wheel is spun again, this time the guys get a listener favorite and Cantina classic, A-side B-side.  Check out the choices and what the guys picked.

Subscribe, Rate, Review!! Thanks guys.. Cheers!

Whats up Cantina Crew?  This episode is jam packed with awesomeness.  We bring our good friend on the show, Leo Nardo.  He is involved heavily with Animal Rights and Animal Liberation and we get some amazing insight in the movement, what motivates him and how you can help!  For example, the Animal Rights March thats taking place this saturday, September 1st in NYC.  

He also brought two demo's for us to check out, first is NYC punk "super-group" Cop/Out.  This is an old school 3 song demo that was recorded by the band.  It's a fresh take in todays polished music world.  Second, is the band The New Ethic.  This demo is 5 songs and is a blistering assault on the ear drums.  Like this episode, both bands deliver strong messages with just the right amount of punk aesthetic. Listen in to the episode for our Rock Hard Tracks and what we scored each demo.

We also get silly, when "Just The Wheel" decides to give us Celebrity Pool and we are tasked with making our starting Hockey Players out of celebrities.  Betty White anyone?

Cheers!

Whats up Cantina Crew? If you've been listening for a little while you know that in past episodes Jay Bray and Davis have both been ambushed in episodes they thought were for one specific band or playlist and had the tables turned on them.  Well, now its time for some revenge on the man orchestrating such shenanigans.  Our very own Rocky.  Davis and Jay break down a night on the town with just the guys through an extensive playlist capturing the best moments of the night.  Which list will reign victorious? Listen to find out.

We also recap our adventures at Fear The Riff 2, so don't miss that, as we go into all the stories and great gear from the convention.  And last but not least we consult with "Just the Wheel" who throws trivia our way, and we struggle throwing it back.

Thanks for listening 

Cheers!

Welcome  back Cantina Crew!  You know we love our Hall of Awesome episodes, and this record is one of our faves of all time.  Post-Hardcore trend setter "The Artist in the Ambulance" by Thrice.  This album is one of those that you just push play, sit back and listen to a masterpiece.  We break the album down to our criteria for achieving the Seal of Immortality, what will it score? What are the moments and Rock Hard Tracks? Check out the episode for those answers and more.

Just the Wheel is swing and bringing us the ever awkward Marry, F***, Kill.  Think last time was weird?  yea... so did we.  Til now.

We celebrate our 50th episode by getting into one of our favorite albums ever and nominating it for the Hall of Awesome.  It's non other than Nirvana's mega-hit, Nevermind.  This album shattered the earth on its release, and is credited with starting the grunge movement as well as destroying hair metal.  Although, we do love our hair metal here on the Cantina.

It's only fitting that 50 episodes in we try out something new, thanks to our friend "Just the Wheel".  Check out the brain power of  Jay Bray and Davis when they try some trivia.

50 episodes is a whole lotta music and beer (and sometimes wine..Davis).  We just wanna say thank you for the support and keep on listening!

Cheers!

Another week, another tuesday, another fun-filled episode of The Cantina Review coming at ya.  If your a fan of the show you know we love Howard Jones, so this week we get into his new band Light The Torch and the album Revival.  A very good mix of hard rock and metal styles.  Howard is right back at the top of his game cranking out brutal but catchy vocals.  Check out what the guys chose for their moments and Rock Hard Tracks.

We spin "Just The Wheel" again and it brings a totally, 100% original, first time ever, never done before idea.  We swear.  Its a Cantina Original idea.  What is it? Check out the episode and listen to the game we play on this weeks episode.

Cheers!
