(no subject)
josh and i have been going soulseek crazy as of late. i love getting new music. my cd collection was staying the same for such a long time, and i was tiring even of bands that i love. then a friend of mine from school gave me a cd case with about 30 cd's of bands that i'd never heard, and told me to burn away. sweet.
this kid is kind of funny. his favorite band is sigur ros, and he loves godspeed and all those types of bands, but in among the cd's he let me borrow was a bunch of screamo and, i kid you not, metal. and i don't mean nu-metal or anything like that, this was straight up metal. gross.
i don't know why, but i have this love of sharing bands with people, because it's so great to tell someone about a band and then have them love the band as much as you do. so basically the purpose of this entry was to just tell about some of the sweet bands i've been listening to as of late. i recommend them to all, but a couple might not be everyone's cup of tea.
the building press
saetia (if you can stand some screaming you'll be rewarded with some amazing and technical music.)
unwed sailor
the murder of rosa luxemburg
mewithoutyou
volta do mar
it never fails to amaze me that there's so many good bands that are out there. most of these bands i was either told about or i read about in a magazine. it's so frustrating though to go to cheapo or wherever and know that i am flipping by some really sweet band.
