Oh The Humanity! – Tired Ears EP
Recorded and mixed by Q Division’s Sean Cahalin, Oh The Humanity!’s EP “Tired Ears” was released on June 30th via Ocelot Records. With tempo-driving drums, oft-melodic aggressive guitar licks and vocals reminiscent of A Day to Remember’s frontman Jeremy McKinnon, Oh the Humanity! has created a release firmly rooted in the origins of the pop punk scene of the early 2000’s while taking a modern approach to the genre. Listen below.
Shotgun Waltz – Skin Deep EP
With 2017’s Skin Deep EP, Shotgun Waltz has crafted a release that has earthy, quirky, gritty takes on love, disappointment and renewal wrapped in melodic guitar-oriented texture. The group was formed in 2012 by Jim DeTore, singer songwriter and longtime supporting musician to many Boston bands teams with Bob Metzger, who for years was the touring guitarist with Leonard Cohen, as well as talented scene veteran Jose Downes from Low Sparks, on bass, and former Lines drummer, Rick Weden. The record was produced by Ed Valauskas, engineered by Pat DiCenso, and mastered by Mike Quinn.
Simona Minns releases debut album “A Hunger Artist”
Recorded and mixed by Joel at Q Division, Simona Minns’ “A Hunger Artist” is an experimental dance theater production that follows the journey of a fasting artist who lives for, but simultaneously resents his audience. Both a theatrical performance and a contemporary interpretation of Franz Kafka’s parable of the same name, it has been performed across theaters and performance spaces across Massachusetts.
