[QUOTE=Kage;13750174]That EITS is worse than I could ever imagine them being.[/QUOTE]

Oh, give me a break. It's not terrible, it's just generic for EITS. Wait for the album, then you can bash all you want if you deem it appropriate.

I damn well deem it appropriate to bash. That song is the worst drivel they've put out amongst a whole catalogue of drivel.

A band that is similar but much much better is Because of Ghosts.

EITS is coming to Houston in March, I will see that show and then decide if I like them. I have a feeling that seeing them live will definitely bump them up for me.

[QUOTE=Kage;13750365]I listened to a song that was called something about a cow and milk.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, that's the only one I found without going into illegal searching and all (it's available on their myspace I think). I really like it though, especially the addition of upright bass is really cool. Makes me want to check out more by them. I actually just found more, check out the media section at: [url]http://www.sj5.no/[/url]

It WILL bump them up for you. EITS's live show is top notch :thumb:

I'm looking forward to it. Tickets are only $10. =D

I've got a plethora of new post rock bands I've downloaded. Johnny Poindexter is impressing me right now.

lol johnny poindexter. I always assumed they were terrible because their album is available to download legally, for free, on some net label.

Is anyone here familiar with Halifax Pier? Red Sparowes bass/pedal steel player is in the band. But don't be fooled, the bands share no resemblance. HP is extremely acoustic/folky with vocals. According to last.fm... they are post-rock too... and last.fm never lies.

You can hear a song there. If people like it I can upload one of their albums. They have some really nice instrumental pieces as well.




Now orgasming over: Gregor Samsa- 55:12 (album)

<--is really digging this Halifax Pier song

Wow, this Halifax Pier is really damn good.

It looks like I'll be uploading HP.

Really they are post-rock I guess. Their use of so many instruments playing intertwining melodies is pretty much what every post-rock band does... they just constantly use acoustic instruments,strings, and vocals.

I'll chuck both of their albums into one file and upload it today.



And Kage, listen to SKINFLICK DRESS REHEARSAL!!!!

Great man. Thanks a lot :)

Send it my way when It's done.

How can you hate Samuel Jackson Five? Easily Misunderstood is such a great album.

Samuel Jackson Five are really good, nowhere near the best Post Rock bands out there...but they are good in what they do.

Hit me up with some HP as well

Thanks

I'd say it will be out in a couple hours.

S/t album and Put on Your Gloves and Wave



EDIT:

Sent. S/t is the better album. Untitled and Strange News from Another Star are my favorite songs.

Is it just me or was that file corrupt?

Not just you. The file is no good.

Not just you...I thought something was strange when it was only 4kb

wtf.

my bad guys I'll try this again



EDIT:

Sent again. Two links now.

Oh, man, this Halifax Pier album is great, and I haven't even finished listening to the whole album (the self-titled btw). Especially the first track is nothing short of awesome. Are these guys still active actually? I saw their last album was from somewhere in the early 2000s...

okay so i decided that EITS have one awesome song

I've been listening to The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place today. I'm sorry, but there's no denying that that album is great. If that's the only great album they every put out, I'll still be a fan.

the only worthwile song is "Your Hand in Mine"

everything else is total snorlax prior to the mondo poke flute jam

Huh...I was sure you were going to say First Breath After Coma

They are a great band but do get a bit samey after awhile.

Still really like them though :)

I don't really get the EitS hatred.......they make music which sounds good.

Music which sounds good but then gets boring after a while of listening to it.

They served their purpose as a gateway into post rock but I feel like I've moved on without them.
