Happy International Women’s Day

March 8, 2018 Jeff

They make this world go around. They also create kick ass music and we at Hafilax love kick… Read More

Mo Kenney // The Details // Album Review

The devil is in “The Details” with Mo Kenney’s new album. Kenney’s third album is laden with dark and personal subject matter that’s veiled under crunchy, fast-paced, pop-punk overtones.

A Playlist For Parents In The Trenches

May 18, 2016 Juliet

Oh, how visions and realities can differ. Take parenthood for example. Most parents will tell you, it's not what they envisioned.
