  • Casper the Indie Rocker

    artist: Casper Jones :: genre: rock|folk|alt-country :: album: Delicious Creation :: label: unsigned listen now… Bleeding Heart :: Better Man To be quite frank, I really didn’t think I would dig this one all that much as I am just not very fond of alt-country/indie/add your own adjective here.  As I pressed play on the…

  • Grunge…Italian Style

    artist: Thisorder :: genre: alternative | rock | grunge :: label: unsigned listen now… Late Empire :: Unus Your friends here at Froglix are pretty impressed with the alternative music coming out of the “the Boot” and that’s saying something because we don’t impress easy.  Italy’s Thisorder delivers a healthy dose of melodic mayhem that…

  • Johnny Go Skaspot

    genre: Power Ska label: Skaspot Records listen now… Imposter Man Same Old Story From the untamed wilderness that is the Pacific Northwest comes a gift…and a marvelous gift it is indeed.  No, it’s not amateur video footage of Sasquatch doing the Macarena (although that would obviously rock).  It’s better.  Much better.  Those crazy ska-nucks, Rude…

  • Wide a Wake in Italy

    genre: rock | alternative label: unsigned listen now… Freeze :: Turn the Light :: 26th of May Before I had even heard note one from The Wake, I had a sneaking suspicion that I was going to be pleasantly surprised and, indeed, I was.  The line from their bio says it all.  “We wrote, we…

  • From No Coast To The West Coast

    genre: alternative | rock label: unsigned listen now 2012 Calling Speakers It took quite a bit of courage for Jason Napier and Dony West, the founding members of Sink To See, to leave the familiar surroundings of Columbus, OH for the bright city lights of Los Angeles.  However, that is exactly what they did.  Shortly…

  • The Ambush Is On

    genre: alt-rock | grunge label: Sunset Records listen now… She Sirens Black Satellite Melbourne, Australia’s Tenpenny Joke is certainly not new to the indie-music scene as their last full-length disc, Ambush On All Sides, was released in 2007.  They are, however, new to us here at Froglix and when our friends at musicSUBMIT.com introduced us…
