So lately I been working on .elaine. again all by myself and I released a 7 Song demo which were just demonstrations I was able to do on my own as a experiment. I saw that I did good so I worked on a 10 song length under I remember everything. I believe this length was the whole concept of .elaine. which I felt satisfied and really happy. I felt like I released all my anger and emotions on those 10 songs afterwards I worked on a song. It was really diy for me. I did the drums on my own and the whole recording in my room. It felt really nice. Anyways afterwards, I was working on a summer EP but I ended up recording one song with 2 guitars and a bass which had much more of a twinkly like feel than the length and the 7 song demo. And recently I put .elaine. On haitus. Not sure when I will start but I can say I at least left a nice legacy behind .elaine.

Everyone goes to space- Demo
So I am drinking a beer and I am gonna exercise in a bit. Thanks to someone from the twinkle daddies group they posted this link. Well this band has done a ton of Algernon Cadwallader covers and they finally released a Demo which sounds close to AC. So if you like AC youll love this Brazillian band. This demo was released last month so expect more jams soon.

Guerilla Habits
So I was on facebook and someone mentioned a emo ska band? Well yes a emo ska band that is pretty decent. It has a ska vibe but majority a emo like vibe which for some reason it reminded me sorta of The Promise Ring (Kinda) well I looked everywhere and this is what I found on google drive which I re uploaded the file to mediafire. I was able to find the 5 song 2008 Demo which has a really good studio quality and feels more than just demonstrational songs. So yep, you should be curious by now so download it. Youll fucking like it. Well goodnight now.

So there is no class for my history course that means I am sorta free all morning. I have a eye appointment thing today since I had laser eye surgery about a month ago.
Im not familiar with the band but some songs sound like something off The reptilian. My guess is this band was way too short lived. They released a crappy 2 song live demo and did 5 songs for a split and yeah thats about it, the split songs are very good and it seemed like this band had a lot of potential for future material. I guess we will never see that coming. This band rocks hard and you should download them. Thanks to the twinkle daddies group for showing me this. Someome from the group was in this band. The song that outstanded the most was "Where's my house Karl?" listen to that one first.

Its 6:07 a.m right now and I just woked up. I had a wierd dream Jupiter was heading towards us so it wasnt so fun sleeping and dreaming. Anyways last night before going to sleep I was listening to this and I digged it. They have put a 8 song length and a 2 song ep. Not sure if they are active since the ep was the last release and its been a while. The self titled length reminds me of a twinkly Strictly ballroom its very much slow paced while the EP sorta sounds like some Algernon-ish stuff. I perfer the length a bit more though. Anyways I needa get up and head to class soon.

LSP
Right now I am in class and I am feeling bummerish and sleepy. Since the last post I haven't been much busy. Just really out of it. Anyways I am in a facebook group called Twinkle daddies. Some people are cool and others suck at sarcasm and jokes. Anyways I was recommended to give all these bands a listen so this is one of them. All I know is that they are a band from the UK that have a twinkly emo/screamo vibe. So far they have put out 2 EP's which both are equally amazing. I don't have much info on them besides that. Ill keep on posting all of them daily. Its a handful so expect this blogspot to be more active.

Diana Lara
So this is a post about my band. Here is the story I used to jam with Antonio and Orlando back in the fall 2010 when we were in a band called The be happy kids. We would play at my old college until they had to close down the whole doing shows at a campus. Since then we all parted ways and would talk at some occasions of catching up with life. Antonio went on to play for Horror movies while Orlando went on to drum for I drive. As for myself I slowoy began working on a few bands myself. About a few weeks ago I guess we all agreed for a jam session. We ended up getting Jeff who was also on I drive. We began playing at my garage and well Diana Lara began. We were going for a less agressive Braid-esque/100 words for snow-esque twinkle form. Past friday we recorded our first 3 songs. We did make more but didnt had much opportunity to record them yet. We took 6 hours for these 3 songs. Saturday morning I spent mixing them. Yesterday we did our first show at my house playing all of the 5 songs we have so far. 2 of them will be recorded for summer. And well now we are a band. Diana Lara was a old friend of mine which has the same similar story as How I met your mother only as a high school version. As for the ending, it didnt end quiet happy. So I guess that little influence influenced me to call it this name. Don't know. Anyway, we do have about 3 more shows before summer. One is taking place down San Pedro at a garage, along with another set at my house and we are possibly opening up for a new diy in house venue in Torrance. If you like The kossabone red/Braid/100 words for snow you might like us. We also planned on a EP for next year since it may take time to do the whole writing songs process. For now we have a 3 song demo up. Physical copies will be made soon that will include the 2 other songs.
