The houses we die in



Balance and composure are a post-hardcore/punk band from Doylestown. They have just released a split with another awesome band, Tigers Jaw, on No Sleep Records. Their side is definitely the better one and sounds a bit like a Deja Entendu era brand new. Below are their two EPs they have out thus far and the new split. The first was self-released in 2008, titled, I Just Want to Be Pure. The second is the No Sleep released 2009 EP called Only Boundaries and the last one is the new split (which I just ordered on vinyl today...can't wait!).

Pianos become the teeth are an excellent ambient screamo outfit from Baltimore, MD. Mixing elements of post rock, hardcore and real screamo influences, they have created a sound which is emotionally heavy and intense. The songs make me feel very melancholic and I love the way they convey their emotional intent perfectly. However my favourite thing about pianos become the teeth and what really makes the band for me are
Kyle Durfey's heartfelt personal lyrics. Below is a really good interview which explains some of the lyrical themes. They recorded an EP in 2008 entitled Saltwater which was later followed by the full album, old pride. I'll just post the EP as it's my favourite of the two. Also below is a music video that actually gave me cold shivers for their song "the houses we die in" from their saltwater EP. For fans of I would set myself on fire for you, Suis la lune, Touche amore and La dispute, etc. etc.

PIETRO CRESPI WAS A LITTLE BITCH



Terry is watching you.....






love this movie : night on earth


Broken social scenes new album is out next month! I haven't heard it yet but everyone that I've spoken to who has, have confirmed it as a classic. I found this E.P. on another blog, apparently it came with BSS's first album and is essentially a b-sides record. That being said I love it and I thought I'd share the love by posting it here for you to have a listen.\\

EP to be you and me



Title fight are a high energy melodic punk band from Kingston (not the one here but the one over in the America). Their first record, Kingston, was one of my favourite records of last year and now the band is back with a 12-song collection that includes the 3 songs from the Kingston 7″, three new songs and 6 more songs all in under 27 minutes. If you are a fan of bands like kid dynamite and lifetime you'll dig this band.

Everyone high-fiving everyone is how Brooklyn based fang island like to describe their music. Pretty accurate description this is pure summer jam music! They are also on Sargent house (native, daughters, this town needs guns) which is slowly becoming one of my favourite labels.
