Nashville’s Five Knives is certainly doing their part to change the national attitude about the Nashville music scene. What we originally dubbed as Nashville’s answer to Sleigh Bells is even more exciting to watch live that the previously compared electro-rock sweethearts. Five Knives live show just kills.

It’s been a little over a year since we premiered The Joy Of Painting’s debut release Asterisk, and those catchy beats are still rocking in our head. While I am sure that their ears are still ringing from all those slaps they got back in April, it didn’t effect their ability to put together…

Paste Magazine told you to keep an eye on this band last year, and we listened. Nashville electro-rockers Vinyl Thief certainly got a bit more attention with their recent Road to Bonnaroo performance, and, after their successful kickstarter campaign, the anticipation for their upcoming full length debut later this year keeps building.

In the flood of emails that come through our digital gates, it’s often hard to find something (sometimes, anything) that truly sounds fresh and new. I mean, it’s hard enough just to listen to a lot of the stuff that we get, so, when we get our hands on something so atypical of any Nashville…
