Well it's about time I uploaded this album! I've been meaning to since it leaked in September. Shows how lazy I am. Anyways, what can I say about Demi Lovato? Well she played Itchie, the female lead in Camp Rock. Her album was basically co-written in large part with the Jonas Brothers (the songs they wrote together are arguably the strongest on the record, minus their duet, which is the musical equivalent of a cum fart... well maybe not that bad) because the stuff she personally writes simply wouldn't fly by her target market aka Disney Channel. Does that mean this sucks? No. Far from it. This album is basically full of super awesome girl pop-rock. It's awesome like Paramore's 'Riot', if it had been released on Hollywood Records. It also a includes a song (The Middle) co-written by Kara DioGuardi, the new American Idol judge- and holy shit its a killer track. I basically love it, even including it on my top albums of 2008 list, amongst a bunch of "legitimate" artists. I'm way excited for the deluxe reissue of this album, featuring a Spanish language song and a new song demonstrating the type of music she wants to be playing and will be continuing on with. I'm fucking STOKED. Until then, enjoy! 8D

This is the debut release by "super group" Two Tongues, featuring Max Bemis and Coby Linder of Say Anything, and Chris Conley and Dave Soloway of Saves The Day. Which basically translates into an absolute emo eargasm. My favorite tracks on it are Crawl, Dead Lizard, and Wowee Zowee. Worth downloading? Yes. Worthy BUYING? Most definitely sir. This is just solid songwriting, manifesting itself into GREAT MUSIC. Srs.

"Sorry Rick, I mean Cream of Mushroom." So here is the A:M's first comedy album, and fuck its good. This album was released last year but recorded two months before his death in 2005. Mitch Hedberg was highly influential, and his style is easily likened to Demetri Martin's, who if you simply do not know, was a correspondent on The Daily Show and now has his own show, Important Things With Demetri Martin. This album is fucking funny, not in the way Dane Cook is funny. Yeah. Actually funny.

If you like bands that have heavy screaming with melodic vocals blended in, with seemingly no melody, and breakdowns galore, then you will like this album. Because every band evar like that wants to be Every Time I Die, and wants to record this album. In fact, you can basically break "hardcore" music down into two groups. Bands that want to record Hot Damn! and bands that want to record The Shape of Punk to Come. But those albums have already been recorded, and most of those bands suck. So just save time and download this and the rest of ETID's discography. It'll save you time and it'll be one of the best choices you've ever made. Ever. In life.

Why haven't we posted this already? Oh yeah. We're lazy cunts. That's the one. Anyhoo, if you don't know Lights already, you should, because she is incredibly awesome synth pop that is what she is. GRAMMAR, YOU HAVE BEEN R4P3D. She said it best when she described how she writes songs. "When I write songs I think about how my music makes people feel, and I hope that when it goes into your ears you feel happy. Not sexy happy but apple pie happy." So yeah. Thar ye be.

So it took me long enough right? Anyone who knows me knows that I am a huge fan of Brody Dalle's work, so this is no exception. It's definitely a departure from The Distillers, and you can for sure here her husband's influence on her music (Joshua Homme from Queens Of The Stone Age). Well if you like very bad ass rock and roll tunes, then here's a solid download. OH! I should also mention that this is a completely independant self release, meaning all the money made off this goes back into their band. So in case you want to be a good person, go here and buy it, it has all the songs, hq artwork, and the music video for Ghetto Love. . Spinnerette - Ghetto Love EP [MP3]- Ghetto Love
- Valium Knights

- Bury My Heart

Yes another file dump. Haha. This one is filled with a bunch of really great gosh darn tracks. As in, listen to them over and over and over and not get sick of them tracks. Yes, it's basically the best file dump evarz.
1. Patrick Stump, Brendon Urie, Travis McCoy, Cee-Lo, Janelle Monae - Open Happiness [MP3]
Excuse me while I coo over the greatness of this track. I've had it in my head ALL day and I'm okay with that. I can literally listen to this over and over and over and it's as good as the first time I heard it. It's LITERALLY the happiest thing I've heard in like, evarz.
2. William Beckett - Heartbeats (The Knife Cover) [MP3]Why thank you Strike Gently for ripping this audio. William Beckett did a video of himself covering this song acoustically, and geeeeeeeeez is it pretty. The original of this song is obv. hauntingly beautiful, as it is The Knife, but this is just a pretty little acoustic diddy that can't help but make you smile. Dig eet.
3. Jack's Mannequin - The Mixed Tape (Piano Version Live) [MP3]The Mixed Tape is a fucking great song. This is an even better version, IMO. I have actually been meaning to stick this in a file dump since I started this blog, but I just haven't been able to put one together that I felt really suits this song until now. It's the kind of song where you need to close your eyes just to absorb how damn lovely it is.
4. Dustin Kensrue - Creep (Radiohead Cover Live) [MP3]Another track I've been waiting to share for awhile. Creep is arguably the most recognizable Radiohead song, and for good reason. Dustin Kensrue, being the immense talent that he is, delivers the goods in this cover. It's as haunting and beautiful as the original, and gives me the same shivers. It's also a pretty damn good live rip.
