The Swayback released Double Four Time on its own more than a year and a half ago on its Long Gone Lads imprint. The album, which contained the band’s best material to date, is completely worthy of much greater exposure. So it’s heartening to hear that the band has finally…
Eminem’s new album, MMLP2, comes out next week. It’s fire, from what we’ve heard so far. Anyhow, you’ll be especially interested in the opening track, “Bad Guy,” in which an associate of an old friend, a fella you might remember by the name of Stan, makes an appearance, and towards…

Katy Perry is brilliant. And, no, that’s not an assessment of her music — although, to wit, the gal does have a knack for injecting just the right amount of passion and pathos into her pop songs that makes them resonate, as evidenced by the impassioned expressions on the faces…
I’m a simpleton, in general, but particularly when it comes to beer — I know, a shameful admission in this town, beloved land of the microbrews. Sorry, dude. Most of that stuff gives me a headache. Still I can’t help but be hopelessly in love with TRVE Brewing Company. I…

The fourth annual Rock ‘n’ Roll Denver Marathon is Sunday. While that’s probably news that gets your heart racing if you’re a jock, for us fat, lazy, non-athletic, beer-guzzling blokes, eyes glaze over, if you know what I mean. Worse, it starts at the crack of dawn — well, 7…
