Can't wait to listen to new music and write some reviews now I have the time to do so :)

 

Their older material is definitely heavier

 

I've been absolutely HOOKED on that ITM album lately.

 

I’m excited for our trade. I think both of us will be pleased

 

For my next trade, me and @Davjs traded the following.

I gave him We’re Up To No Good, We’re Up To No Good by Rory

He gave me The Fire by Senses Fail

 

ME TOO! It’s crazy good!

 

That Rory album is a fun one!

(so is The Fire)

 

Damn I hope so. Excited for you to hear good, old fashioned british ROCK!

 

We have amended to two albums!

@Kvothe and I traded TWO albums

They gave me:

The Struts - Everybody Wants
The Starting Line- Direction

I gave them:

Hawthorne Heights- Bad Frequencies
Senses Fail- If There is Light, It Will Find You

 

@Night_Sky snd I have finalized our trades.

They will be listening to:
Palm Reader: Braille
Secret Cutter: Quantum Eraser

I will be listening to:
Slowdrive: Souvlaki
My Bloody Valentine: Loveless

 

Oh shit @Nate_Johnson you haven't heard this I the Mighty album? It was in my top 10 last year. You're gonna love it

 

Underrated trade

 

Great 1st review Jim, glad you enjoyed the album. I tried to pick something that would be fun for the summer for you. Inside My Head and The Best I Ever Had are my favs from this too

 

@Nate_Johnson it’s nice to see you passing that Palm Reader around.

 

It really is a great album.

 

@ugman_2000 have you listened to the Secret Cutter album yet?

 

No I saw Holy Roar tweeted about it yesterday but I haven’t had the chance to check it out yet. That’s a horrible band name though.

 

Yeah, it really is. The best way to describe their sound is if Jacob Bannon fronted a doomy, wall of sound, pulverizing metal band. They are a mix of Harms Way, War From a Harlots Mouth, Converge, Gaza and Cult Leader.

 

You picked a good one! I really enjoyed it.

 

That Rory album is awesome! I'm amazed anyone else knows that one! Nice pick @Jim Morgan

 

This week I was paired with @disambigujason and he gave me "Are We All The Same Distance Apart " by Crooks UK.

Crooks UK are from, well, you guessed it the UK. They play a mix of hardcore/alternative/indie music. To me the music sounded a lot like Silverstein but without the screaming parts for the most part. The opening track "Above Me" really grabbed me right away with the changing in time signatures and the incredible drumming on the song. I don't even know how to accurately put into words how amazing this album is. After 1 listen I'm pretty sure its my favorite album of the year. I don't normally listen to albums back to back, but I did with this one, and have listened to it a few more times as well. Seriously, you need to listen to this album. You will not be disappointed. I was blown away by the instrumentation on this album. @disambigujason thank you so much for the recommendation of this album. Sorry the review isn't longer but people just need to hear this album. Like, seriously, listen to it right now.

RIYL: Silvertstein, Casey, Trophy Eyes
Fave Song: Above Me, and really the rest of the album

 

A band I worked for played with them back in the day, and I loved them and this record! They’re definitely a band that flew under a lot of people’s radars.

 

Oh man what band was that? Also have you heard the singers other band The Scenic?

 

I definitely know The Scenic too! The band I worked for was For Felix. Ever here of them?

 

I’ve heard of them before. Just familiar with their song a simple message because it was on the punk the clock comp
