The Music Shelf Review Roundup
Mustard and Mister Substitute review some music they believe you should check out.
Lucifer’s Beard – The Guy with a Black Eye
Review by Mister Substitute
Hailing from the UK, Lucifer’s Beard is a power-rock group that brings it and brings it hard. “The Guy with a Black Eye” is catchy on the surface, fueled by a rhythm section that doesn’t quit and keeps your foot tapping. Listening to it a second time, the lyrics are very deep and honest as the singer shouts “I wanna live…

Liner Notes (beneath the cut):
Holding Patterns : A playlist needs a strong start, right? Well, I don't think that there are many songs strong than Holding Patterns. I've got a soft spot for rebellion punk and this is that 10000%. Makes me want to headbutt a fascist lol.
Bde Maka Ska : Now we switch gears real hard to a Minnesota rap song about survival and going with the flow. Unlike another song I have talking about BDE, this one is referencing a lake.
Hanging On : It's an epic kinda song with a Wild West feel but also metal and scream. It's a lot. But also really cool.
Footsteps in the Dark : I think I've already written about Timesick, which is the song that put Goodnight Sunrise on my radar. Where that one is much more of a nineties garage rock ballad, this one has a Neo-eighties feel. Still rock. But like. 80s influenced.
Bang Bang : This song is about fucking. Especially as someone's dirty little secret. Mamma once again graces the rotation, this time with a song that feels like it's a bit more influenced by Hole than Verruca Salt. Basically still music that came out before most members of the band were born.
Speak of the Devil (feat. The Score) : Continuing the songs about fucking and desire, this one is about forbidden fruit and being irritatedly attracted to someone. I love a song that has guitar riffs but also a very strong dance beat. Not sure what genre that is. But it's one I like
When You & Me Dance : This song is less about fucking, but more and more about being close to someone in a moment of time. Definite dance song. The music video is wild. Fun fact, I make character playlists for all my TTRPG characters, and this one appears on one for an emotionally stunted gunslinger that sees fighting as "the dance"
Eat U Alive (feat. Steve Davit) : Marian Hill is really good a making songs that are a fusion of thirsty and something else. Most of my favorites are either thirsty and funny or thirsty and foreboding. This one has a bit of a foreboding feel to me. She does a good job of capturing the craving of stupid desire. Plus gotta love the saxual innuendo (no that's not a typo lol)
Until I Come Home : This song brings together two of my favorite artists. There's this feeling of loneliness and separation. The whole thing is very cinematic and just powerful
Quiet Little Voices : Okay, this one isn't really an indie artist or anything. Like, even I know they had radio play. But still, it's a fun song, and one that a lot of you might have missed maybe. It's that same kinda brit rock (Scottish specifically but you fall under brit rock until you're independent sorry) that gave us little lion man.
