Back Into The Swing Of Things...
Took a little hiatus for about a month for band stuff, personal stuff, being sick, being swamped with school work, so on so forth. This is just a little dig list to get back into the groove. |
| 1 |  | El Chupa Cobras
El Chupa Cobras
EXTREMELY solid and EXTREMELY well balanced mix of progressive/raw post hardcore with a few grindy subtleties. Will have a review up by the end of the week. |
| 2 | | TheTwo Man Gentlemen Band
Drip Dryin'
Nearly perfect throwback to good ol' fashion swing, with a little bit of ragtime and bluegrass thrown in for good measure. Will also have a review up this week or early next week (nothin on the weekend, goin to see PTH on Friday and some friends on Sat/Sun). |
| 3 |  | The Two Man Gentlemen Band
Heavy Petting
Reviewed this last week. Still digging it, though their newly released album (above) is more impressive. |
| 4 |  | Converge
Jane Doe
(generic Sputnik dig album #1) but it's really that good. |
| 5 |  | As Cities Burn
Come Now Sleep
Bought it around the beginning of last year, thought it was pretty alright but not better than their first one. Re-listened a month ago more closely, basically got kicked in the face. Album is awesome. |
| 6 |  | La Dispute
Somewhere at the Bottom of the River...
Awesome awesome awesome album. |
| 7 |  | Kings Of Leon
Because of the Times
WAAOOOO She's such a charmer, oh no. |
| 8 | | The Legion of Doom
Incorporated
Fun mashups of post hardcore and punk bands. |
| 9 |  | Ohana
Dead Beat
Little late to the party on this one, oh well. So far it's pretty great. |
| 10 |  | P.O.S.
Never Better
On the same level as Audition for the most part, but there are hints of progression that make it just a bit better than it's predecessor. |
| 11 |  | Tera Melos
Idioms Vol. 1
Great cover EP. Didn't really expect them to cover many of the songs on here but they all work pretty well for the most part. |
| 12 |  | Arsis
A Diamond For Disease
I didn't really find it that great the first couple of times through, but after a few more listens it's starting to warm up to me quite a bit. |
| 13 |  | Have A Nice Life
Deathconsciousness
(generic Sputnik dig album #2) but again, it's really just that good. |
| 14 |  | At The Drive-In
Vaya EP
I mean...it's awesome. |
| 15 |  | Coheed and Cambria
In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth: 3
Every single song on this album has a moment that genuinely blows me away. |
