Sharks keep moving

Well just like Colossal, Sharks keep moving was also a band aike Colossal but started n 1997 or 1998 I think. It has Jake Snider from Minus The Bear. Well the band free forms Jazz and indie/Math Rock Scales. They broke up in 2002. As much as I know the band released a split 7", 2 EP's, a full length and did about 5 or six compilations. Yep thats as much they made. 19 songs I would say counting all on my ipod. It was mentioned the band was going to put out a discography that alo carries a few unreleased songs but its been a while since the word was out and I doubt itll ever be put out. So this is the music I have been following for a good 2 months now. I mean its pretty good and I am those people who likes a taste of any band that sounds epic. Iv'e actually been listening to this band on my way to class on the bus since my semester started in February 5th. Because I am a big fan of American Football anything remarkable to there twinkly mathy sound I will dig anything that totally reminds me of them. So bands like Sharks Keep Moving, Colossal, or even Marquette, Penpal and Pennines is something I also like.

Yes, I am finally back again after a month and a few days with no post. Well let me hit you with some shit thats been going on ever since the last post. One is big kinda, I recently started a internet project band with a few homeboys I met on facebook's groups I am in I don't remember how but we formed a Skramz/90's emo influenced internet band which apperantly it will be caled "Ask for answers" we are still working on a 7 song demo and so far we have 3 of the songs for the guitars done for the demo. I also did a song on my own which doesnt flow to the demo's Skramz up stuff but flows more into an early Kolya style sound (one of the songs that are also done) as far as I can look back this is as much done we gotten over the past 2 months actually. Anyways. So since this semester has started I've looked back through a few past bands and found a few interesting ones as my semester of college has started its been a bit rough on me this semester because I am running on a low buget for books which i ended up getting all my books recently. While that sit was going on I have also been jamming with a few kiddos back at my college and this actually happened yesterday. Well now to explain this band. I couldnt help myself but look back to this classy ass Indie/Math Rock band that has some real style. I knew this band somewere along 2011 and to be quite honest I remember telling an ex at the time that one of the songs reminded me of her (which now most of the songs just remind me of this semester) since last summer I stopped hearing them for a good while. About a month ago I kept searching through my music library and I saw Colossal's EP and full length. I had to add them back again to listen to them and now I have fallen deeply into this band. This band is as good and has that classy math rock style. Shit I like shit that gots class also. As a brief bio the band started in 2001 and in 2002 the band first released a song to a compilation called "Table Setting" which is the first song the band released, in 2003 the band released there 6 song EP entitled "Brave the elements" afterwards the band toured and somewhere in January 2004 the band began writting for a 10 song full lengh which was later called "Welcome the problems" this album is a classic which I added to some of my all time favorite albums on my list. The album was released in early fall 2004 and toured again. They then came in other compilations and in 2007 the band went on haitus, since then nothing has been mentioned of this band :( I am really hoping this band to get back tgether someday and make anther full length. There to good to easily let go.
