I haven't had time to post anything for a while, Ive had a shitty week since last post. My ex left me for a fairy, I went out with another girl for a day, accidentally got to drunk and my parents saw me drunk, the girl left me and wanted to date my friend but he was creeped out thoughts of my ex sometimes run through my head but ehh I had way worse days than this, plus its summer. Girls, weed, friends, and girls. C////O I discovered them in that kali mixtape volume one. yes its hip hop get over it. But this shit is fucking off the hook. The dudes has released an 4 track EP entitled Girls EP and that comp track entitled capture bonding. I fell in love with these dudes hardcore. Im not a big fan of todays generic rap but hey these guys are very fucking good. Remind me of a DIY version of Tyler the creator. Just check it.

Freaky J and The Bears
I have a fucking cyst under my fucking armpit. It's not the first fucking time this has happened. It is about the 4th time. I had to go through a small surgery phase where they cut it and stings like a big bitch so I went over the internet and found a solution that might help without cutting it. Anyway, I was impressed by this band. The band name reminds me of some jazz band. But this band is no jazz band. They have a very 90's emo influence to there songs. I was very amazed. I literally thought this band was from '96 or '95. Im not so familiar with this bands bio since I just found out about them within the past hour. But fuck, did they rock my balls. The band released a 2007 demo (Im missing one of the songs out of the 8 which is track 7), a Self titled EP, and a split tape with 3 songs from the 2007 demo re mastered and a new song. All the songs are very good. It's almost a crossover between Patterns make sunrise, and I hate myself. I really liked this band. I tried looking around for anything. Not many blogs have spoken about this band (that I know of, I know many) So I thought it be grateful If they got some attention a bit out there. I am not sure if this band has broken up but from the looks of it I am sure they have. I uploaded a discography (missing one song). But other than that its all of them. This band is such a 90's wave emo band sound. Well I hope any of you guys download this. Wierd band name but you will be shocked how they really sound, Very fucking 90's emo.

The Spirit Of Versailles
Literally the first Real Screamo band I've ever heard in my life. The first song I heard from them was Because there aren't enough hours in a day. I flipped the fuck out. It was unique. I always thought bands such as Alesana and all those shit major bands was Screamo. The Spirit of Versailles proved me the fuck wrong. From Sioux Falls,South Dakota this band exploded my body and re-created a better one. I'm glad I found this band on one of my high school buds ipod, which I discovered in Early Fall 2008 from there I went on to different bands similar to this til even now for a band existing July 1998 - October 2000 they released many releases 8 songs cdr, The Confluence Of All The Senses EP, In line for halos 7", Rise from run/The spirit of versailles split 7", Songs Of the dead 2 Compilation, The spirit of versailles/Saqqara split 7", Live @ WNYU Radio Show (Which I think it was released in limited 7"), they also had an untitled unreleased song that was finally shown on there complete 2 disc cd discography. The discography is still available on there labels big cartel for 8 bucks. very cheap. It has all of the releases I named. This band is truly one of the first bands to actually inspire me into screaming rather than screaming and to influence me and letting me know that major labels are totally fucking shit. One of the most important bands in my life I would say this one. Though not my favorite but the first to haved opened my eyes. I do hear 2 vocalist scream in different of the releases like an example on the 8 songs,Live @ WNYU Radio Show, caligari split, and unreleased track has a much of a deeper scream and a whiny singing voice while in line for halos, The Confluence Of All The Senses, Rise from run split, Songs Of the dead 2 Compilation track, and Saqqara split the scream is much high pitch as a little girl screaming (gnarly scream) I don't know how, what or why but I am guessing they changed vocalist or the vocalists voice changed, don't know. but for those who don't know the spirit of versailles or members. one of the members went on in forming In loving memory (the one with the high pitch scream; totally sounds like a second the spirit of versailles) and other members went on the form examination of the... which both bands did a split together (it is fucking neat). I always thought Screamo was about the gay hair, the stupid hiding the face and bullshit sing talking in beggining of songs. I am very glad this 90's band proved me the hell wrong I will say again.

The Truth About Dreaming
Nolan (Plastic Smile Records) has again started his one man band again. I don't know why he dropped iwontstopwonderinguntilyoustopbreathing since TTAD sounds very similar to IWSWUYSB. I do know he has played a few quite shows under the name. He has released 2 demo's (which are now compiled together known as Demo's tape/CDr which you can order one here, also a 10" Rehearsal CD along with a Live set in tape and CD and a E.P Cd/tape. I havent really checked any of the other stuff but I enjoyed the Demo's but please do support his label and stuff and buy some shit from him. I will upload the Demo's. The Demo tape/cd comes with lyrics (finally) a patch and other cool handmade shit. If you like Jerome's Dream or Nolan's past stuff you will like this.

Marquette
Lately I been on my softer side in music. Instrumental jazz math rock bands. Though this band is not instrumental it still follows the footsteps of a mathy tune. This band existed from 2005-2007 they only released 2 EP's one entitled Megafone which has 5 songs and the other entitled Waxing/Waning it also has 5 songs but 2 of them were in the Megafone EP that are different versions. They recorded 10 songs but did 8 songs. After this band they formed to Penpal (Not much of a big fan of that band) then they formed another band that did 7 songs only. Since then I haven't heard anything of these members. Though Marquette is my favorite from the other 2 bands. I decided to post them on here so that people could check these 2 EP's. There very good and easy to listen too. It is good music for the starting summer.

Cunter
This is one of the rarest posts on any music blog, I actually tried looking for anything on these guys and nothing was found. It took me a long while to find there vinyls online since the vinyls were limited pressed and everything was digitally downloaded on there bandcamp but not free of course. The band was originally called Hunter but changed it to Cunter 'cause some douchebags were going to sue them since they had the name Hunter. This band has members of Moneen, Alexisonfire, Haitian Knife Fight, and the abandoned hearts club. Kenny who is vocals/guitar from moneen plays bass in this band Erik Hughes who is bass for moneen is lead vocals for this band and then they have the drummer of Alexisonfire and so on... This band has 4 vinyls. The first was called 4 (all vinyls released are numbered) which were the first four songs then they have 8 which are nother 4 songs. They then combined the 2 vinyls into one vinyl and added 2 unreleased songs and called it 10. There newest 20 has 10 other songs so in total they have 20 songs. Wierd right. I found this band to sound somewhat like a 90's hardcore punk band. The band was majorly influenced they decided to start this band. Though the bands label is Dine Alone (ew) Dine Alone has lately tried going "Underground" and "DIY" by releasing limited vinyls and making vinyls instead of CDs. Kinda sound like copycats of DIY labels. Though I do find this band very low key under Dine Alone Records. Stupidly this band has a wiki page. Though very underground. I knew of this band when they released 20. I am a big fan of Kenny well was, I still think I wouldve known about this right when 4 came out. Sadly, I didn't. The band is pretty good itself. I do like the fact this band went on being Low Key and not being a major sell out and for that I will post them on my blog. If your a huge fan of any of the bands mentioned or Hardcore punk, this is a band you guys should look into

JFA
JFA in short and Jody Forster's Army in long was a early 80's hardcore punk band or what a few who grew up listening to to them "Skate punk" music. Here's the story how I found out about this band. My last day of my college classes I didn't show up for one of the final since I already had an A and it was more of a pass no pass class so If I got a C I would still pass. I was walking to the bus to go home and decided to hang out with one of my friends Jebus. Who was at his brothers house (Johnathan) and another friend of ours who we call (Monch) was there as well. Tehy waited for me so we cann all smoke together. I got there and decided to listen to some music. We put James dean, bob marley, easy-e and cypress hill. Monch then brought up JFA who said it sounded like a early screamo band. So I heard it and since I was pretty much zoned out it actually sounded like they were screaming. When I got home it sounded like nothing of what I heard at Jebuses brothers house. Though I did managed to like there first 2 releases. Once I heard the other releases, I saw what he meant that they were shit and not hard. So I am posting the 2 first releases of this band. The other stuff was more softer and had some 80's glam or some shit to it. Sounded nothing like hardcore punk as a matter of fact. The first 7" Blatant Localism and Valley of the Yakes were there best. Is all I got to say.
