Avoid that person's music at all costs.... the cute girl folk bullshit has worn out it's welcome years ago....

Nobunny - LP

Wow. Now this is something!! Nobunny has been blowing up since around 07 or 08, but this is the culmination of that... This records production values are waaaaaaaay past his other fuzzier stuff (which I prefer), but that's not to say these songs aren't heavy - it's still the same masked bunny crusader of garage rock that we all know and love.

Enjoy!

Woven Bones - I've Gotta Get 7"

What else could be said about the Woven Bones that hasn't already been said? Well, for one I guess I could be honest and say, although I did enjoy all of their 7" singles, their LP was a complete disappointment to me. All the songs on it were filler.

They kind of made up for that (very slightly) with this 7". Side A sees them putting more emphasis on guitar technicality and showing an almost surf style of playing it. Very catchy song, and although the guitar is very clear on this song, there's still plenty of fuzz to go around.

Side B has the usual fuzzed-out guitar sound. It features an awesome guitar solo half way through. The song is a bit of a slow one, however, it's still a gem.

The Boo Jays - Is Just To (And Be In)

I came across a supposedly new release from The Boo Jays. I checked their site, doesn't say anything about this coming out soon or anything, but it's definitely them playing.

Really dark and broody stuff going on. A lot more down-tempo than their previous release. They seem to have shifted styles slightly, veering away from the spooky-surf sound and going more towards a softer Woven Bones sound. Not really sure how I feel about that though.....

At any rate, download and enjoy!

NO INTERNET

I'm currently without internet....coupled with the fact that the fall semester just started one could only imagine how sparingly I'll be posting for a while. However, if things turn out well, this weekend I'll have a mega post! I've got a lot of bands emailing me releases and I've got a special post about the Solace Media Corporation's second compilation album that just came out! So please check back this weekend!

Waylon Thornton - Paranormal High School

I couldn't help it! I decided to post an extra album from White Moon Recordings. This one is very special though.....it's Waylon Thornton sans The Heavy Hands. He's also the one running White Moon Recordings with his Wife and partner in crime and music. Recorded during the Witching Hour (don't you love all the occult references! I do!), which is anywhere from midnight to 6am in some cases. Not the Waylon most of you are used to, it's very stripped down and mellow but still very spooky. Awesome change of pace and I'm really looking forward to his second installment in the Paranormal High School series!

Lost Boy? - MTV

Another Lost Boy album for you kids. If you guys enjoyed the last Lost Boy album I posted then definitely download MTV (released by White Moon Recordings). Nothing really too different from his past albums, but I can say he's gotten a lot better - but what do you expect, this guy has released more albums than anyone could handle (and all of them are free!), and it's obviously paying off when it comes to his sound. There are some old favorites of mine on this album (Grim Reaper, Taste Butter, Ice Cream Man).
