Review: Sorority Noise – You’re Not As ___ As You Think
As Sorority Noise’s Triple Crown Records debut and the full-length follow up to the wildly popular Joy, Departed, You’re Not As ___ As You Think is an important album. But this is a band that has never been afraid to take risks – one that has continuously pushed themselves with each new release – and it shows in their latest effort.
From the conversational nature of lyricist/vocalist Cameron Boucher’s songwriting to the open-endedness of the album’s title, Sorority Noise actively invites listeners to insert themselves into each song. Boucher frequently plays with perspective and often address listeners directly, reminding each person who hits play that they have value and that they are more than their insecurities.

March Madness Bracket Challenge
March Madness is upon us. I’ve created an ESPN group if you’d like to fill out a bracket (or two). I’ll gift the winner of our group this year a free supporter package for a year as a prize.1
You can find all the times for the games here, and our NCAA Basketball thread is always a great place to be during the games themselves.
If you’re already a supporter I’ll extend your package for free, since I don’t have merch or stickers made yet to give out. I should get on that.↩

Review: Del Paxton – All Day, Every Day, All Night
For over a decade now, Topshelf Records have done a fantastic job of seeking out the best in up-and-coming talent, especially within the indie/emo scenes. From Into It. Over It. and Sorority Noise, to Touché Amore and You Blew It, they just seem to have a knack for finding bands with incredible potential.
In 2015 they signed Del Paxton, a quirky indie rock group from upstate New York with an affinity for hazy guitars and rousing melodies. The band recently released their debut full-length album All Day, Every Day, All Night, a solid first showing from the fairly young trio.
International Women’s Day/Day Without a Woman Strike
Today is International Women’s Day and the “Day Without a Woman” strike. Here’s a few articles I’ve found that are worth giving a read:
Today, we’re taking a moment to draw inspiration from the many moments in history where women have spoken truth to power, pushed back against oppression and injustice, and fought to make our country and our world safer and more equitable.
“This is the day to emphasize the unity between work done in the so-called formal economy and the domestic sphere, the public sphere and the private sphere, and how most working women have to straddle both,” says Ms. Bhattacharya. “Labor is understood to be work only at the point of production, but as women we know that both society and policy makers invisibilize the work that women do.” The strike calls for women to withhold labor, paid or unpaid, from the United States economy to show how important their contributions are.

That’s no coincidence. From the beginning, International Women’s Day was tied tightly to activism and labor strikes. In fact, the day was named in 1909 by the Socialist Party of America to honor a 1908 garment workers’ strike in New York City.
