Horse Thief — Little Dust
In advance of their upcoming album, Fear in Bliss, Oklahoma City folk-rockers Horse Thief debuted a new single this week on popular music blog Stereogum. The song, “Little Dust,” is a breezier affair than “Devil,” the album’s first single.

Hinder — Welcome to the Freakshow
The brand-new, fourth album from the Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame (!?) inductee and long-considered aural equivalent of hot garbage is unlikely to turn the tide, but it’s a — dare I say — commendable effort. It’s hard to hate on a band too much that at least attempts to evolve. Borrowing elements of pop, […]
