Norma Jean's new album The Anti-Mother is currently streaming on MySpace - if you dug Redeemer, you're probably gonna love this as well. The lead singer from Deftones is featured on the track Surrender Your Sons, btw. http://www.myspace.com/normajean

People dug Redeemer? Someone should tell Norma Jean they have the worst album covers ever as well. The new one isn't as bad as Redeemer but it's still pretty awful.

Dorepoll posted:Their website says that they released a self titled EP last week. It's on the US Amazon and iTunes store. Which sucks for me because I am in Australia. Their website was https://www.thefalconisbiggerthanjesus.com but it seems to be down now. I too think you have the wrong band named after the same bird.

Let's start talking about punk bands again and not lovely metalcore. I just saw on Ambitions' myspace that they're breaking up. That loving blows.

Any recommendations for somebody who loves all stuff the guys from the Crack Rock Steady put out, basically ska stuff with a lot harder edge?

Also the night before that, Joe Jack Talcum in a basement. Seeing people get that pumped for a tiny man playing Punk Rock Girl was pretty wacky.

What are some bands like Blood for Blood? I seriously cannot think of any. Wisdom in Chains probably, that's all I can think of.

Rise Against, Alkaline Trio, Thrice and Gaslight Anthem are playing in Denver in November. I plan on going, but can anyone tell me what kind of show those bands put on? I like RA, Thrice and Alkaline Trio, for what it's worth. Do they have a good stage presence?

And if the .orgers from Punknews are right, you won't be disappointed with Gaslight Anthem.

If they're playing songs off of Goddamnit, any songs at all, then it's totally worth it. I'm not a huge fan of Gaslight Anthem, but I like them and I hear that their live show is about a million times better than their records. From what I understand, they're one of those bands that you don't really become a big fan of until you've seen them.

Following around the Phoenix Bodies/La Quiete tour right now. They are playing a house show and a bar show tonight (house show with Ghostlimb and bar show with Gorlock) and then another one somewhere down here in southern California tomorrow that I'll be at. loving stoked. The Gilman Portraits Of Past show ruled except for the whole Yaphet Kotto not playing thing. Apparently there was some drama with one of them being drunk so they wouldn't let him play or something I don't know. Wednesday the 6th ...Who Calls So Loud is playing on my radio show so tune in at 10PM PST on kcpr.org to check it out. You can stream it live and listen to it and poo poo so I suggest you do since it will rule. I'm pissed about that date because loving Punch just posted that they are playing a house show with Marrow that night who I still haven't seen. gently caress. Oh well, it will be my first WCSL show so I'm pumped for that. Also not relevant to this thread at all but I saw Boris and Torche play last night in LA and holy poo poo it ruled. Boris is easily the loudest band I've ever seen play and I forgot my earplugs so my ears are hosed. Worth it.

SubtleDagger posted:Actually Thrice's last album is probably their worst in my opinion, but I think that's just because they were playing out their limited concept idea. They're still one of the best bands out there. I dunno, I think Dustin's a great lyricist (except for the Fire album, which seemed very contrived) vv Plus, they covered Frodus on Earth.

Ahhhhh nice. I was weighing between seeing Portraits of the Past in Berkeley or Boris/Torche in SF and went to neither. I saw Harvey Milk twice last week though and both shows were great. I was sick and went to Great American Music Hall only to find out the next day that they were playing a last minute show a few blocks from my house. I would rather talk about Boris/Torche/etc than Norma Jean or whatever else, that's for sure. A few good shows coming up at Gilman this month - Mischief Brew, Appalachian Terror Unit and hosed Up. Gonna have to do a full-on parsing of the List again, it's been awhile.

It Dies Today has a new album coming out in the fall apparently, and they have a new song called 'Thank You for Drinking' (which has a pretty sweet breakdown towards the end) on their MySpace page. http://www.myspace.com/itdiestoday I really, really like these guys and I have no idea why.

SubtleDagger posted:He is a great lyricist but Air sounds like indie-pop and Earth sounds like B-sides from his acoustic work aside from the Frodus cover (which rules). I liked Vheissu at the beginning, but then when I listened to it a few years later I realized how genius that album is. I'm pretty sure it's a huge metaphor about the bible or something too, but whatever. Say what you will about Air, but Daedelus is the best song.

Now if only D4 would put out a new record too I'm pretty sure they're recording in September. I'm seeing ADD/C, This Bike is a Pipebomb and Future Virgins in Knoxville tomorrow. I'm totally stoked because I've been trying to see ADD/C for a few years now and something always fucks up.

Vheissu isn't about the Bible, Moths to Flame is about Judas betraying Jesus but everything else on that album has no relation to Christianity. Jesus-freaks love to act like they're a Christian rock act and all the other songs are about poo poo they're not though. /random Thrice derail

Do you think they confuse Dustin's solo stuff with the songs he writes when he's working on Thrice material? I noticed his solo album was a little more spiritually oriented than any of Thrice's albums.
