American singer-songwriter Leon Bridges released his fourth studio album "Leon" on Oct. 24.

‘Leon’ is low-key and rocksteady

By Tim Anzalone, Contributing Writer • October 21, 2024
Leon Bridges’ “Leon”, released Oct. 4  is a smooth, relaxing and mellow album that aims to imitate the most peaceful times and places in a person’s life. In 13 tracks, Bridges manages to astoundingly capture what it’s like to truly be in a peaceful place. That very notion is exemplified in his songs, “Peaceful Place” and “Simplify”, which are both dedicated to that feeling, as they talk about his experiences in his own special places. A slow and tranquil array of sounds accompanies Leon’s journey through life. The mellow vocals convey who Leon is at heart, his hometown of Fort Worth, Texas, and the girls he has fallen in love with.

Pearl Jam and producer Andrew Watt join forces to bring a "modern grunge" in "Dark Matter."

Pearl Jam’s sonic evolution as it fusions grit and grace in ‘Dark Matter’

By Billy Wood, Sports Editor • April 25, 2024
Despite critical appeal never being lost for grunge icon Pearl Jam, 2020’s “Gigaton” was a commercial disappointment, becoming the band’s first album since 2002’s “Riot Act” to not chart at No. 2 or higher in the United States. Seeing this, the band decided to bring on GRAMMY award-winning producer Andrew Watt to help infuse modern magic into the band. This resulted in Pearl Jam’s 12th studio album “Dark Matter” which was released April 19. While the hard guitars and Vedder’s unique vocals are still present, Watt’s history of producing for pop stars is shown through the tendency to opt for more light instrumental starts.
