By the Time I Get to Phoenix | Injury Reserve Album Review

(10/14/21 2:52pm)

The best way to describe By the Time I Get to Phoenix is as a smoking room in a burning house. In their first album since their self-titled record in 2019, Injury Reserve deviates from their normal high energy rapping to create an album that twists that structure into a claustrophobic, intense expression of grief. It would be difficult to discuss this album without mentioning the loss of band mate Stepa J. Groggs. Groggs was one third of Injury Reserve since their founding in 2013. Expectedly, this loss has taken a toll on the group, and this can be felt in every aspect of this album. From the lyrics to production, By the Time I Get to Phoenix utilizes music’s capabilities to fully immerse the listener in the mental state of Injury Reserve’s members.

The Golden Casket: Modest Mouse Album Review

(09/14/21 12:07am)

The wait is finally over. Quintessential indie-rock outfit Modest Mouse released their seventh studio album, The Golden Casket, on June 25, 2021. The highly anticipated project consists of 12 songs and is just a hair over 50 minutes in length, a bit shorter than most of the bands previous releases. Front-man Isaac Brock and drummer Jeremiah Green, the two remaining members of the original trio, are back full force with their ensemble of other instrumentalists, some new and some old, in addition to a world of new sounds and song concepts. This is, by far, Modest Mouse’s most unique and colorful sounding album to date. The use of synthesizers and a wide range of other electronic instruments gives a majority of the songs on this album a much fuller, more vibrant sound than anything the band has released as of yet. While many critics and casual listeners are struggling to see how The Golden Casket can hold up to the likes of the bands earlier, more well known releases such as the beautifully haunting concept album, The Lonesome Crowded West, or the record that came 7 years later, Good News For People Who Love Bad News, including essential Modest Mouse songs that really put the band on the map in the mid 2000’s and even landed them a Grammy nomination for Best Alternative Album in 2004. With all of that said, let’s break the album down and discover why it could be their most bold and interesting release so far, and what it could mean for fans in the future.

DJ Spotlight: Chris DiBias

(09/08/21 1:53pm)

This week’s featured DJ is Chris DiBias, a senior studying Aerospace Engineering in Auburn’s College of Engineering. Chris has been a part of WEGL since the fall of his freshman year in 2017. He told me that his first memory of WEGL was signing up for the organization in the Haley Center during his Camp War Eagle session. The first show Chris hosted on WEGL was called Proceed with Caution, which was actually the first non-sports podcast hosted on our station. He has also hosted a hard rock show with his friend and now alumni Patrick Coleman called High Voltage, and this semester he is hosting a new show called Cheetah Print with fellow engineering student Jack Hart. I’ve known Chris since I joined this organization and it was a pleasure to have this opportunity to get to know him better though this interview, here’s how our conversation went:
