In a previous entry, fellow Jiingo writer and music lover Shan professed his love for the newest Hilary Duff single, Reach Out. Despite his enthusiasm, and my own previous love for Ms. Duff, I have to say, that something just wasn’t sitting right with me and this song.

I’m feeling blue. I don’t usually do a bad review. Mostly because it leads to BORING reading. This album is NOT BAD! It’s just, lackadaisical.

As you may remember, I had posted an entry awhile back about albums that I was anticipating for the rest of the year. One of those albums was the new Shiny Toy Guns album, ‘Season of Poison’. Over the last number of years, the fanbase for STG has been growing and growing, pulling in a variety of music lovers from all sorts of genres. They have toured, extensively, thoroughout North American and parts of Europe. Their shows are smaller, more intimate, and full of energy and songs we can all… Read more »
