So here is one of many Michael Jackson compilation albums. This is the Canadian version. It has a lot of his greatests most awesomest songs. So ya. Dig.
I'm just stoked to have actually found a version of the album art on the interweb. So don't mutter to yourself about the size of it, mmkay? Anyways. A couple of years back my friend and I snuck into a local bar to see Cancer Bats play. Naturally, they were super epic and swiftly became my favorite band. However that night, another band was on the bill. They were called Sick City, and even though their lead singer was drunk as shit and no one was there, they blew my mind and I had to own their cd. It joined regular rotation with all my MCR cds, and thus I found TWO of my favorite bands in one night. This EP was entirely self released, and the production is lovely and slick as baby oil. Four of five songs off this was rerecorded for their debut full length, Nightlife. But this EP kinda blows those versions totally out of the water. That is all.
So this is a new tour only EP by the Cancer Bats sold only in the UK and Canada. It features 4 new songs which are to be released on the UK reissue of Hail Destroyer at the end of April. It's pretty sick, and features covers of The Faint, Tegan and Sara, and The Murder City Devils. It's being referred to as the Tour Ep, so I've changed all the tagging to that, but when you open it in iTunes, it'll show up as Engine Skull EP. So deal. :D
So here's a couple of great tracks I've gotten hold of due to the glory of the internetz. The PATD one I should have uploaded months ago, yanno, around Halloween, but whatever it's great anytime of the year. So enjoy this one people. It's a pretty good file dump.
All that can truly be said about this song is that it is EPIC LULZ. You need to hear it to believe it. Not to mention Ryan Ross' voice is on clear display, which is pretty awesome if you're a Panic fan.
Who is Tequila Mockingbird you ask? Tequila Mockingbird is the combined awesome power of Nicholas Scimeca, who is apparently a parter of Angels & Kings (Peter Wentz's restaurant whut), and Travis McCoy, of Gym Class Heroes fame. So what about the song then? It's fucking catchy and I can't stop listening to it. Someone around here is gonna kill me.
Toni was the first person to tell me about this band, but it wasn't until I saw them in '07 that I actually started to pay attention. They're kind of a ~supergroup of the Canadian scene~ so to speak, and are notably fronted by Andrew Neufeld of Comeback Kid. But they don't sound like Comeback Kid. Hmm whatever its good music. Download if it interests you.
HOLLA ANOTHER SIDE PROJECT! 3 in one file dump. This one is a-featurin Keith Buckley from Every Time I Die. It's almost like this weird country rock music thing he's doing (holy shit maybe even actual southern rock-esque?) with some old friends that started one night while they were drunk. This is an acoustic version of one of their songs, and it might just be my favorite I've heard. Supremely pretty. No screaming here.
So here is Every Time I Die's debut full length album on Ferret. It's pretty ghetto awesome. Back when they were straightforward metalcore. I'm more of a fan of their work Hot Damn! and forward, but if you are a fan of ETID and/or metalcore, this is basically a must. As well, finding a copy of the album artwork was a real bitch, so I'm sorry for the shit quality.
So still in my "YAY BLINK 182 IS BACK" phase, I have decided to post up their first full length release. So evarbodeh, say hi to Cheshire Cat! What can I say about this record? Well I doubt that by listening to it in 1994 you would have realized just how legendary this band was going to become. Still ultra catchy and funny like Blink have always been, it has the sound typical of pop punks in the early to mid nineties, save for Green Day. Also of note is that Travis Barker is not in the band, so the drumming isn't the typical Blink 182 sound. Still worthy of being in your collection though. So yes. :)
So I don't know what to write about this record, so I'll just copy and paste from the wikipedia article: "Kids for America is the first EP released by American pop punk band Motion City Soundtrack in 2000. The tracks "Cambridge" and "1000 Paper Cranes" were redone and released on I Am the Movie. This release was hand made and according to their official discography, it was limited to 100 copies. The full package includes a disc with only a tiny "MCS," the folded artwork, and a contact/credits card that contained information for booking. This was all housed in a plastic sleeve." So yes, that's that.
So this album was most definitely requested a long time ago. Sorry about that. Anyways, it's pretty awesome and hilariously clever. I really need to listen to Cobra Starship. However, I think this might be one of those things where the people in my life kill me for being a big geek. Whatever. Good stuff. Download link obv. in blog title or link below.
Do you remember Box Car Racer? If you do, AWESOME! If you don't, holy shit I am old. Hahh. This album is the only album of the now defunct Blink 182 side project started by Tom Delonge, featuring Travis Barker on drums. It's almost like +44, except not formed out of depressing necessity. Don't run in fear now though, this is not anything near the overwhelming douchebaggery that was Angels And Airwaves. It was merely a vehicle for Delonge to get out the musical ideas he had that he felt weren't really Blink 182-ish. So instead of being inspired by U2 and The Police, this album was more inspired Rites Of Spring, Embrace, and Fugazi. For the uneducated, those were the orignal emo bands. Yeah. It's their fault.
The special edition of City and Colour's second full-length album Bring Me Your Love. Only 5000 copies are available in North America, plus 1000 in Australia. (I lucked out and spotted one in an HMV today.) The album itself is great, receiving mostly 4-star reviews when it came out last February. This 2-disc version features 2 new songs (Faithless and I Don't Need To Know) and demo versions of all songs except The Girl. The track Sleeping Sickness features Gordon Downie of The Tragically Hip.
