Do yourselves a favor.... click that link, then have them send you the LeGracia album. Jason from Kid Dynamite, and None More Black. Sounds like a Jason fronted, classic rock inspired Jawbreaker. One of the most criminally underrated records of the last few years.

Report

Hate4Hope (September 11, 2009)

PS- Happy anniversary Virgil! Free albums seem to be clouding the issue that you have stood tall on hard grounds for a decade and a half. I hope you are an immense inspiration to others to do the same...

eazyd2 (September 11, 2009)

really? wow! cause every other faggot on this site didnt wank over that album when it was released

Report

Hate4Hope (September 11, 2009)

Well, maybe you have your dick in the wrong faggots asshole... Man, your understanding and use of the english language almost parallels your contribution to this discussion. Maybe, since the people that didn't wank about it, you think are "homosexual", for some reason, I can assure you, I sir, am straight, (not that there is anything wrong with being straight), but I do like that record. It even has a female in it, so you can feel more secure. Maybe you should just take the time to go listen to it. It takes almost as much time as leaving the pointless comment you are already "formulating" in our head....

Report

eazyd2 (September 11, 2009)

sorry man i was just mucking around. i really like lagrecia i think its really cool you do to and i think its really cool that you are straight as well. no hard feelings

Report

Hate4Hope (September 11, 2009)

Never hard feelings man. If you Like LeGracia, check out a band from the East Coast called Deathkiller. The shitty reason that I draw the parallels in my head are (and yes, the dumbest reasons for assimilating bands-) they are another three-piece, with a female member, making pretty aggressively driving music. It's the old guitarist for Hatebreed (please, don't let that slow down your checking them out!) and his wife. Unbelievable record, although much more akin to the Kid Dynamite stuff, than LeGracia.

Why do I need Suburban Home's permission to download these digital albums for free? Its called a "p2p file sharing client" and if I wanted to, I'd get them there whenever I want. If I like it, then I'll buy the CD or LP.

One instance is the person that owns said records letting you pick. The other is you taking at will whatever you want.

It's all a matter of respect. Do what you want.

Report

Michael_Jackson_Jordan (September 11, 2009)

If they offered the album for free from the get go, then I wouldn't have to resort to P2P file sharing. Instead they're waiting, um... 14 YEARS... to offer this, so pardon me for wanting to hear some of this music before it took them that long.

mikexdude (September 11, 2009)

Everyband except maybe stereotype rider cause I've never heard them doesn't sound like Hot Water Music. In the Red hardly sounds like Hot Water music. Wow. Very not good comparison, yo. HWM is easily one of the most influenctial band coming from their time period, but these bands are far from that sound to me.

Report

deadXlast (September 11, 2009)

Really, In The Red is Mike Hale's band right? Sounded sorta like something Chuck Ragan would do, musically and vocally. Of course I could be mistaken and thinking of another band. I'd look them up but my work computer doesn't have speakers.

And while I readily admit not having checked out most of these bands due to severe apathy, I *have* listened to a compilation that I got from my girlfriend and put on my iPod and there seemed to be a heavy dose of HWM influence in most of the songs, but with more *shudder* country. Now like you said, they were a very influential band, but I still reserve the right to be annoyed by their imitators who don't do it nearly as well as the originals.

Report

Drunken3rd (September 11, 2009)

I just need to interject here. You can TRY to sound like HWM but nobody NOBODY! Plays bass like Jason Black.
