Laugh at What I Love: Iron Maiden - A Tale of Two Singers (How Paul Di'Anno made me dump Bruce Dickinson)

Tim Baker | August 25, 2011
Iron Maiden is the first band that I can remember absolutely and unquestionably loving. I don't know if it was the dark themes that played to my adolescent mind, or the comically low budget videos filled with old tyme silent film stock...

Our Interview with Mr. Muthafuckin' eXquire - He is our new best friend

Tim Baker | July 13, 2011
I spent a lot of time in the New York City hip hop scene. Dating all the way back to 1995, when I performed at the All That and Words open mic nights at the Nuyorican Poets café. I have thrown shows, performed at more venues than I care to remember, many of...

Our Interview with Josh Kaufman from Rocketship Park - Sky Rockets In Flight!

Tim Baker | July 6, 2011
Everyone has people that roll in the same circle yet they are on the fringes of each other's lives. The friends of friends of friends. You know that they are good people because of who they are down with. For me, Josh Kaufman of ...

Tim Baker | June 27, 2011
The reason I even started SYFFAL was to find bands like Mother Mother. I had been in such a rut musically that I had to kick start my listening habits to force myself to explore new things, very much the same way I use alcohol and Samantha...

Tim Baker | May 18, 2011

Our Interview with Here We Go Magic - The Gathering

Tim Baker | May 10, 2011
I have written extensively on my love for the band Here We Go Magic, so instead of rehashing the fellating I decided to steal a page from the Trekkie fan base and delve into some fan fiction. So without further adieux I give you Here We Go Magic in: Night...

Here We Go Magic - January EP

Tim Baker | May 9, 2011
This might be my semi-educated and highly reactionary mind at work here, but I think Here We Go Magic is poised to be the biggest band in the world. They are un-fucking-real. I have never listened to a band that seemed to be a perfect fit...

The Underground Youth - Morning Sun

Tim Baker | April 27, 2011
God dammit. I hate when I see something that reinforces just how uncool I am. Sure I am just an old fucker now, who points his finger at the kids downtown who make me feel uncomfortable because they are still young, drunk and making the mistakes that they...
