Tennis - Cape Dory

So i just found this band, someone posted one of their songs on Snowings facebook. ive got a couple songs into it and im really liking it. i guess its a married couple not that that matters but thats what ive heard. i didnt find much about this band because im rushing to post this before i head out tonight but im definitely going to put it on my ipod and listen to the rest right now AND YOU SHOULD TOO!

Dr. Acula - Slander

Okay so im not sure if im ready to admit to the whole freakin internet that i actually like the new dr. acula cd, oh well here it goes. so i saw they had a new cd comming out and looking for a good laugh i checked out a "trailer" they put up on youtube and instead i actually got into it. I use to like this band when SLOB first came out then half the band quit or whatever and they put out Social event of the century which i hated. i was convinced they turned a joke band into a serious band merely based on the fact that had "fans" now. it seemed like the music on that record reflected that but something happen with this one and i really like alot of the guitar riffs, some of the lyrics are really annoying but i can get over that
overall: go smoke weed then drive down a bumpy road in your big ass truck and get stoked on how heavy this is.

forgetters - self titled

This is the newest project by Blake Schwarzenbach, they just finished a west coast tour and they're already doing another right now. They formed in August of 09 with ex drummer of Against Me! Kevin Mahon and bassist Caroline Paquita from Bitchin'. They've got a ton of newer that i dont think have been put out yet. Check some of those out in this live studio session.

Chelsea Wolfe - Advice and Vices single

"Chelsea Wolfe is a singer/songwriter and eponymous full band out of Los Angeles, California. Inspired by the dark state of the world and the strange connection between all things, she creates a unique musical blend of goth-folk, experimental rock and spiritual realm funeral songs. Ask Chelsea how to describe her live sound and she will say, "Psychedelia without the drugs." Ask her - if a song could be a soul mate which would you choose? - and she will reply, "Koni Priviredliviye by Vladimir Vysotsky." With influences ranging from the great minds of Ingmar Bergman and David Lynch, to soviets and end-times literature, her songs conjure visions of other dimensions, claustrophobic echo-rooms and parking garage cathedrals. Wolfe has recorded two full length albums, The Grime and the Glow, out December 28, 2010 on limited vinyl through Brooklyn's Pendu Sound, and her latest record, (Apocalypse), currently only available on bandcamp. Compared to the likes of Nick Cave, Siouxsie and the Banshees and PJ Harvey, Wolfe's music is rooted in truth but reaches beyond the horizons."

Sirs - Vas Deferens

Another awesome band a friend of mine showed me. They just finished a small tour in NY, CT and MA. Pretty disappointed i didnt hear about them before the tour because they had 3 MA dates. They just put out a split with Chalk Talk last month, make sure you grab that too.
