Inter-Reviews
Here at CD-ROM Rabbit Hole, we enjoy a healthy balance of artist interviews AND music reviews, thus creating the infamous INTER-REVIEWS. In this tab, we will be sharing written interviews with bands as well as written reviews of upcoming or recently released music! Some artists will opt for just a review, some artists will choose to only be interviewed, but hey, maybe some musical projects will want both an interview AND a review! For right now, all these Inter-Reviews will be WRITTEN, however, we are currently working toward implementing an Audio/Video component with recorded interviews that would also be available on YouTube and podcast platforms. Wouldn't that be just swell? Dandy? Awesome? Rad-tastic? Totally tubular? Gnarly? Or all of the above? Well, whichever way it unfolds, you can find it ALL RIGHT HERE!

Important Announcement: PLEASE READ!
Hey, everyone. It's been a while. I had to take a good month off from reviews because I had a medical emergency that left me hospitalized with a concussion, temporal fracture, and slight brain bleed (not fun). I had always planned on returning to reviews once my health was back to normal, however, I have been watching all my submissions pile up and more and more time passed, and I realized that, at least temporarily, I did not have the drive, passion, or brain capacity to

"King of the Ooze (Concept Version) by PB&TAT (Roast & Inter-Review)
What’s up, gamers. Happy whatever day it is. I’m CD-ROM Rabbit Hole’s arch nemesis, DVD Lion Den. My whole shtick is that I hate music and hope you all die. With incredible hesitations, I regretfully inform you all that the dickheads over at PB&TAT have finally won the battle with streaming platforms, distribution sites, and perfectionism. After nearly seven years of eating hot chips and lying, Brian has finally gotten off his ass and released a full album. “Oh, wow, th

"King" by Dikembe (Inter-Review)
Hey, everyone! HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

The current lineup of Dikembe members includes: Steven Gray: Vocals, Guitar Scott Carr: Guitar Randy Reddell: Bass David Bell: Drums Thankfully, Mickey, of Fuzzy Slippers and Naive Nature, reached out by sharing an Instagram story post from Dikembe that sta

"A Song for Bob (Feat. PB&TAT)" Cover by Strangeness In Proportion (Inter-Review)
What’s up CD-ROM Nation? This is Brian, not Sean. “Where’s Sean? What did you do with Sean?” you might ask. I can assure you that Sean is mostly safe. Today, I am so unreasonably excited to bring you a BONUS inter-review! You see, I play in a little ‘old folk punk trio called PB&TAT. Sean released a cover of our debut single, “A Song for Bob,” with his own project, Strangeness in Proportion. The result? Sean’s taking the hot seat today and I’m going to interrogate him about

"A Song for Bob" by PB&TAT (Inter-Review)
Pastor Bob & The American Taliban is a musical project created by Brian Bartels, based in the depths of hell. Brian is a folk punk musician that brings a comical tone to some very real and serious subjects, such as political injustices, religious trauma, and mistreatment of minority groups, making jokes to cope and shine a spotlight on these issues, not making jokes to directly laugh at these problems we face in America. The track we will be discussing today is titled "A
