Cottage_Cheese (December 2, 2008)

Yes, I'd recommend "Promotional Copy" and "Under the Tray"

mikexdude (December 2, 2008)

I'd pass and check out the Casket Lottery instead.

eazyd2 (December 2, 2008)

no he is lame

swank (December 2, 2008)

You are the one who is lame.

MilesQToast (December 2, 2008)

the first two songs I heard from him were okay but then all the rest weren't. I don't like it when that happens. Like finding out the hot chick you like is crazy racist.

DarthNader (December 2, 2008)

he played with some band named the get up something. i heard they sucked.

brown (December 2, 2008)

i think he drummed for some shitty scenecore band called.. coalesce or something close to it. i heard they all had haircuts and what have you. totally against everything the scene stood for.

cheesehead4 (December 2, 2008)

I have promotional copy and it's alright, nothing too special.

acris (December 3, 2008)

super fucking shitty

silverzone (December 3, 2008)

Total guilty pleasure of mine. I love Songs Not To Get Married to. Real good shit.

shanholtzer (December 2, 2008)

wonton (December 2, 2008)

its like, 70% country.

shanholtzer (December 2, 2008)

and it's alllll reallly bad! the only tolerable shit was Two Cow Garage and that was only alright. The Ghost Buffalo song was...ok

MattRamone (December 2, 2008)

Wow. You fail.

mikexdude (December 2, 2008)

Two Cow Garage is so fucking good.

shanholtzer (December 2, 2008)

i liked those two songs, maybe i'll check out a full length

mikexdude (December 2, 2008)

You won't be disappointed.

loreng (December 3, 2008)

but it's such a terrible name

eazyd2 (December 2, 2008)

alt country is cool now for some reason

DarthNader (December 2, 2008)

thanks to jeff tweedy

BarleyPat (December 2, 2008)

He's been doing alt country for a while now. Why has it blown up only recently?

MattRamone (December 2, 2008)

I love the country compilation Virgil put out not too long ago in the guise of a label sampler.

Were you the one who wanted the address to the OFWTH show, or was it another MDer. I have it if it was you.

wonton (December 2, 2008)

but thanks anyway.

mikexdude (December 2, 2008)

You would.

MilesQToast (December 2, 2008)

MattRamone (December 2, 2008)

Amazing.

MilesQToast (December 2, 2008)

you know he just leaned back in his chair, in the 'arms up behind head with fingers laced cradling the back of the head/neck' pose after that one.

SloaneDaley (December 2, 2008)

if you like Jets to Brazil's first album and like The Weakerthans check out Kill Creek, one of the most slept on bands around.

If they're springed, it'll kill my back.

har har

I sleep on a springed matress, it does kill my back and is noisy as hell.

mikexdude (December 2, 2008)

Agreed. I've always wanted one of those really fancy number adjusting pieces, but oh the money!

SloaneDaley (December 2, 2008)

exactly I'm sure the matress I have is shot to shit.

bluexmaslights (December 2, 2008)

yeah that was pretty good

Music blogs are where it's at.

feeeding5000 (December 2, 2008)

Anasarca is REALLY good. Heavy emocore from the mid 90s. They had like 7 or 8 songs recorded. Get their discography.

The first Grade album, the one on Second Nature, sucks. Grade was just not a very good band. Major player in the mainstreaming of emo.

4+ Replies

mikexdude (December 2, 2008)

When I listen to a Grade album, they have some really good moments... and then they don't. If that makes sense.

SloaneDaley (December 2, 2008)

speaking of emo/emocore I got a Bob Tilton 7" in the mail today, along with the Deadwood Divine's S/T and Ethel Meserve's "The Milton Abandonment". A little different sounding than that but still sweet.

sugarfull (December 3, 2008)

Yeah, they're not bad actually. (Anasarca)

Yossarian (December 3, 2008)

Yes, because of the countless world tours and multiplatinum albums Grade put out really brought emo into the mainstreem....wait...none of that happened

Blackjaw_x (December 2, 2008)

Tigers Jaw is album of '08. Wanna fight about it?

mikexdude (December 2, 2008)

Polar Bear Club.

SloaneDaley (December 2, 2008)

they are playing with Cancer Bats soon, I had tickets to see them on a much better bill in a better club this summer but there was a transit strike that day last minute starting at midnight that morning and no one would split a cab.

MilesQToast (December 2, 2008)

strike breaker

SloaneDaley (December 2, 2008)

it was a quasi legal strike.

mikexdude (December 2, 2008)

Damn! They are truly one of my favorite bands that have come out in the last few years.

DarthNader (December 2, 2008)

Riot Before - Fists Buried In Pockets

Blackjaw_x (December 2, 2008)

Yabut we all knew Brett and friends would put out an amazing record. Tigers Jaw was a surprise is all, I'm excited. It's definitely the album of '08 with most consecutive plays, and the one with most plays in one week (for me). I would never actually be able to decide. 2008 had better stuff than 2005-2007 combined.

DarthNader (December 2, 2008)

2005-2007 had Sink or Swim, Career Suicide, ...We Are Still Alive and Oh! Calcutta.
i kinda liked those years

eazyd2 (December 2, 2008)

Tigers Jaw isn't a record that will blow you away with gusts of originality, but for a debut, it's a more accomplished and enjoyable record than many of their contemporaries could ever hope to muster.

Cheesetits (December 2, 2008)

Did you just hit your head or something?

Codu (December 3, 2008)

I know, holy shit.

Reminds me of when MeatWad turns compassionate.

Codu (December 3, 2008)

Oh wait, it's just pasted from the review..

"Shut up potato fag!"

Blackjaw_x (December 2, 2008)

"2005-2007 had Sink or Swim, Career Suicide, ...We Are Still Alive and Oh! Calcutta.

Yeah they were good years for the bigger bands, but 2008 was great for debuts or sophomore albums, and new spinoff bands.

cheesehead4 (December 2, 2008)

yes, I do. Polar Bear Club BITCHES!!!! D4 close behind.

jacknife737 (December 3, 2008)

I shall meet that challenge.

I got your back.

seriously, that self-titled one this year fucking tore me and everyone who heard it at my place a new one.

Apeman_On_The_Moon (December 2, 2008)

Anyone else see this Yahoo! Music column where a guy calls Hot Water Music an emo band? Also rips on their band name!

mikexdude (December 2, 2008)

They kind of are an emo band. I love their name though.

eazyd2 (December 2, 2008)

they are an emo band with a stupid name. ive never listened to them based purely on the fact their name is so stupid

loreng (December 3, 2008)

exactly.

emo existed before it's current wave

Cheesetits (December 3, 2008)

Yeah right next to everyone's current fave, Bring Me The Horizon, mwah haha.

Seriously though, stupid fucking excuse for an article.

clam_tears (December 2, 2008)

I just listened to my first Pantera song today. Let me tell you how shitty it was. The singer sounded like Trey Parker making fun of metal singers. It was a total joke.

Cheesetits (December 2, 2008)

You're a joke.

clam_tears (December 2, 2008)

Really? I thought that by judging a bands entire career based on one lame song made me more of a douchebag than a joke. Thanks for the compliment! m/

eazyd2 (December 2, 2008)

i would say dumb cunt

Cheesetits (December 2, 2008)

That probably works too. What song are basing this off of?

clam_tears (December 3, 2008)

The song actually was Cowboys From Hell. I see they made quite a career for themselves though, so good for them. I'll stick to Seasons in the Abyss.

BarleyPat (December 2, 2008)

Cowboys From Hell was good back in the day. I would start and end there.

But Pantera fans suck in a big way. All the football jocks back in my high school walked around all day screaming.............RE.....................SPECT............... ......WALK.........................ARE YOU TALKIN' TO ME???????????????

SierraNevada (December 2, 2008)

Yeah seriously, they make dropkick murphy fans seem like pacifists. If thats possible.

Cheesetits (December 2, 2008)

Vulgar Display of Power is better, although Cemetery Gates is always my favorite song of theirs. I still like most of Pantera's music, but you are right about the fans, they're just another band on the long list of "Band's I like that have fans I absolutely hate."

Holy_Balls (December 3, 2008)

let da bodiez hit de floor!

silverzone (December 3, 2008)

Don't rip on em. Metal wouldn't be the same without em. Plus Dime is such a good shredder, it's rediculous. Phil however was always the weakest aspect of the band.

RIP Dime.

givemeamuseumandillfillit (December 4, 2008)

Ehm, so you're saying metal has been fine and dandy since the early 90's?
Because i'm saying it's shit like pantera that caused the fucking downfall...

clam_tears (December 5, 2008)

So much win.

swank (December 2, 2008)

Worth the download for the Grade song alone.

DarthNader (December 2, 2008)

just out of curiosity is there anyone else out there that thinks Disco Before the Breakdown is a lot better than Crime?

8+ Replies

Blackjaw_x (December 2, 2008)

Not me. But those 2, and the Acoustic EP, are the only AM! albums worth listening to.

eazyd2 (December 2, 2008)

dumb cunt

rebeccaa (December 2, 2008)

for me disco before the breakdown verrrry slightly beats out crime.

cheesehead4 (December 2, 2008)

I do

cheesehead4 (December 2, 2008)

not alot. little better, but still better.

BarleyPat (December 2, 2008)

Hard for me to compare w/ only 3 songs, but Disco is fucking awesome. 35% is one of my top 3 AM! songs.

MattRamone (December 3, 2008)

I love them both too much to be objective.

jacknife737 (December 3, 2008)

I'm sorry, but 35% alone is > the Crime.

MyStereoHasMono (December 2, 2008)

Let me tell you, that Able Baker Fox record (mbrs of Small Brown Bike & Casket Lottery) is so fucking on point it's unreal. Do yourself a favor and get a hold of a copy.

Blackjaw_x (December 2, 2008)

I thought everyone knew this, but you're right. Not much talk about it, 'tis a shame. It's almost on top of my list on everything because it's alphabetically strong, so I listen to it a lot.
