Welcome to the Memorial Day Weekend Edition of 2+2. I was out of town this weekend, relaxing by the ocean which has done wonders for me but also delayed this post. Anyhow, I’m so glad to have a bunch of new tunes to jam while I watch the waves knock down some unsuspecting beach-goers. Excited
Welcome to the Easter Weekend Edition of 2+2 with BPMHill and George Folz. Thanks for coming back or joining in for the first time. I can’t say that any of these tracks have a particular Easter vibe; hell the first track out of the gate is most definitely about some dark shit. That said, nothing
Welcome to 2+2 with BPMHill and George Folz. Thanks for coming back or joining in for the first time and hope you will continue to check out our posts through the year. We’re expecting a lot of new tracks/albums to come from the summer through fall 2021 as bands start to unleash what they’ve been
2021 is looking to be another great year in music even if we don’t get any live concerts. Several artists delayed their latest releases during the ongoing pandemic and as we’re inching closer to a time when they can tour again, some of the albums are finally seeing the light of day.

One of my absolute favorite discoveries this year has been the band, Imperial Triumphant. Their new album, “Alphaville”, is phenomenal and will (SPOILER) definitely be on my Best of 2020 list.

If you’ve been following my column, you’ll notice there hasn’t been a post in a month. Life got a little crazy in October but I’m really glad to be back at it, particularly with this new killer track.
