mmmm delicious progressive punk/metal aka DIGGIN' ON: BOYSETSFIRE
So I finally found a working torrent of the Boysetsfire discography. I am a VERY VERY happy man right now.
For those who don't know, Boysetsfire is a sort of progressive punk/metal fusion band who have a heavy leaning on songs about politics, patriotism, social liberalism, progressivism, and identifying the self through it all. Their best years were obviously during the Bush administration. Here's a few songs to check out:
After the Eulogy
Rookie
Our Time Honored Tradition of Cannibalism
My Life in the Knife Trade
Timothy
Holiday in Cambodia Yes, a cover of the infamous Dead Kennedy's song.
Curtain Call
In Hope
Toy Gun Anthem
Dear George Yes, that George.
Suckerpunch Training
Nostalgic of Guillotines
Walk Astray
Requiem
A Misery Index
So Long... And Thanks For the Crutches
A Far Cry
White Wedding Dress
Last Year's Nest This is widely considered one of their most successful songs, given it actually had wide radio play on alternative rock stations across the country. It was featured fairly heavily on FuseTV and some might consider it one of their best singles overall.
Handful of Redemption My personal favorite
Release the Dogs
Foundations to Burn
On in Five Sheer brilliance.
So yeah, take your pick of the litter. This list pretty much fully encompasses the best the band has to offer.
