Streams: The Hostage Life: "White Jesus"

Posted on Friday, April 4, 2008 at 4:00 PM (EDT)

Today we've got a full stream of the new EP from Toronto's Hostage Life. The four song disc was released by Black Pint Records and includes three originals and a cover of the Wire classic, "Mr.Suit." The track was also re-popularized in in 1993 by the New Bomb Turks.

You can check out the entire four-song 7-inch on their punknews.org profile.

what's a funnier mental image:

the guy and his band, standing there for the photo, and the photographer says "alright, you, scream like an asshole" so he screams in the middle of a silent photo shoot for no reason and they take the pic

OR

the guy and his band, standing there for the photo, and the photographer says "alright, you, open your mouth so it looks like you're screaming like an asshole" so he opens his mouth really wide for no reason and they take the pic

?

The screaming dude reminds me of the video for Aphex Twin's "Come to Daddy"

I really liked Walking Papers, but am losing my taste for this band.

Jesus is not happy about having a color designated to him he prefers to be looked upon as color blind and he also said that there is a nice warm spot waiting for the hostage life.
