Cave In: Final Transmission Review
This review took longer to write than I thought it would. I spent a fair bit of time thinking about how much Caleb Scofield’s passing affected how I was hearing the album and thus unfairly viewing it. I’m note entirely … Continue reading

Artreyu: Long Live Review
Another Cool Try review. Only fixed a spelling mistake and separated two paragraphs. This one is rough. I don’t think I went into the details of the album enough. It’s another review that reads more like a list than it … Continue reading
Busby Marou: Postcards from the Shell House Review
This review was one of the easier reviews I wrote for Cool Try. I found the album to be superficial and shallow in a bad way. That’s all I have to say about this review. Aside from adding a space, … Continue reading
Senses Fail: Pull the Thorns From Your Heart Review
The fourth review I wrote for Cool Try. I think it was around this one where something of a “style” (really stretching the definition of the word here) began to emerge. I think I wrote the majority of this over … Continue reading

Born Ruffians: Uncle, Duke & The Chief Review
Here’s a review written in February of last year for Cool Try. I think at around this time I was feeling as though I needed to really start pushing outward with how I wrote reviews. May have been earlier. I think … Continue reading
Moses Gunn Collective: Mercy Mountain Review
So I’m pretty sure that I didn’t notice my not finishing a sentence when I finished this review for Cool Try. This review was written almost four years ago, so what I was trying to say about “Hot Mess” is … Continue reading
