REVIEW ROUNDUP: HOLE, GODSMACK, COLD WAR KIDS, NEON TREES, LILY ALLEN, SEVENDUST, RED, AND SHINEDOWN
Cold War Kids – AudienceAn odd end in a collection of tracks compiled in the Behave Yourself EP, “Audience” brings the Cold War Kids back to the delightful drum and piano pounding indie rock of 2006. It has the “Hang Me Out To Dry” vibe and shakes much of the sophomoric
REVIEW ROUNDUP: CYPRESS HILL, DEFTONES, THE DIRTY HEADS, SERJ TANKIAN, SILVERSUN PICKUPS, CREED, CHARLIE WINSTON
