Now that things are warming up outside,
Category: Artist of the Week
Each week, Mailo highlights an artist worthy of Enter The Shell’s Artist of the Week! Plus, once a month, Mailo crowns a Legend of the Month!
Artist of the Week-Stiff Little Fingers
Today there are many varying styles of punk music, but whether talking about how growing up sucks, the state of affairs in the world, or the failures of political systems, they all share one thing in common: they’re bringing light to an issue or a cause that they feel is important enough to talk about. …
Artist of the Week-Ten Foot Pole
March is here and spring is upon us (at least for those of us in the northern hemisphere). And with spring we are granted new life, nice weather, and that great American pastime known as baseball. This week we’re getting a little bit of everything! Our artist this week is one of those great California …
Artist of the Week (Legend Series)-Elvis Costello
February has come to a close and with it our unofficial theme is ending as well. While the rest of the month we have been highlighting power-pop artists, our legend this month, while not a power-pop artist definitively, I regard with having aided the genre by setting the bar of intellectual lyrics with the self-aware …
Artist of the Week-Mike Viola
Given our pseudo-theme of the month, I felt it was only appropriate that we carried on for a couple more weeks. This month has all been centered around power-pop artists and this week is yet another artist who has the ability to belt out catchy, meaningful, and often playful tunes. While power-pop may not be …
Artist of the Week-Fountains of Wayne
Well, Valentine’s Day (or “Singles Awareness Day” as I was recently corrected) has come and passed, but regardless of whether you celebrated on Tuesday or were waiting for the weekend to get down to business we have our lock for Artist of the Week ready for your reading and listening pleasure. When everyone else is …
Artist of the Week-Jordan Zevon
February is here and just around the corner is the day that singles hate and couples go all out to make sure that they’re going to get some. That’s right, Valentine’s Day. That hallmark holiday made to get people to spend more money in the holiday dead months. As a man who has spent every …
Artist of the Week (Legend Series)-Birdmonster
The Jan “NEW” ary theme is one that is both fun to work with, but with its drawbacks. Example: finding new bands for the regular week isn’t so tough, but when it comes to finding a legend to stick into the final slot, well, it’s not so easy. How do you determine a band is …
Artist of the Week-The Silent Comedy
The end of our January new music special is nearly come to a conclusion with only one more week after this one to go, and we are showing no signs of slowing down. This week we bring you a band that is slowly gaining a name for themselves in the music community with songs making …
Artist of the Week-Princeton
Our second artist for our new and up-coming month of music, we’re bringing you some local boys (if you’re from Southern California). This week we have the lovers of literature, the scintillating songsters that make you feel a load smarter just by listening to them, but without that feeling of shame when you don’t get …
