i am the storm, and i am the wonder; and the flashlights, nightmares, and sudden explosions

Ruse, please use this song in one of your videos.

SAFARI. I want to rail you hard.

I just spent the past 45 minutes putting together a seriously boss post, and then Safari crashed, leaving me angry and put out by the whole thing.

I don't even want to write about why I chose these songs. It's too depressing now, but I'll put something. Just download them. They are awesome. Shit.

(right click downloads)

The Whitest Boy Alive – 1517 - Nice use of Daft. I dig. Btw I think Daft is touring in 2010? Definitely going. Definitely.

XTC - "Dear God" - Finally, and honest song.

Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Hysteric .mp3 - "Flow sweetly. Hang heavy. You suddenly complete me, you suddenly complete me"


“Surfin’ Bird” - Bird is a Word.


“Come Out, Come Out” - Specifically for Denesh, because I think it's a song he would like. "I want to be young, and I will scream at the top of my lungs, to go out, to wake up, and to break this fucking cycle!" Definitely influenced by some Silver Spun.

Bon Iver & St. Vincent – Roslyn - The best song I've heard in two months, easily. Props to Bon Iver. Been on Team Iver since the get-go, but he really worried me when he signed up with New Moon. No complaints. This is almost better than Blood Bank. Not quite Skinny Love, but close.

Anya Marina -Satellite Heart - Simple, cheesy, and sweet. Love it.


W.A.L.E.D.A.N.C.E. – Wale - Thank you Wale for not fucking over a great song like 'Chiddy Bang' does in his sample songs. Song's fun.


End.

Love,
Cabin.



This video ought to rock your world.

Lights and Music



I really enjoy this song. Used to listen to [Bright Like Neon Love] back in 2005. I recently discovered that they released their latest album and I was elated.

JUDGEMENT HOUSE - BREEEEEE BREEEEEE BREEEEEE

BR00TAL M3T4L
by Austin "The American Wolf" Parker

Thursday, November 5, 2009

This past weekend I went to the fest, a music festival in gainesville, fl that primarily focuses on punk/hardcore bands. It was a BLAST; I recommend it to anyone.

So here's a rundown of bands that i saw and recommend:

Algernon Cadwallader

Very similar to Cap'n Jazz, only i feel like they have a much more organized sound. Screechy vocals on top of clean, minus the bear-esque riffs make up the majority of this band's sound. The music is very upbeat, the kind that'll keep you smiling through the entire set.

Gonna have to ignore the video on this one, it's just the best recording i could find.

One of the great things about the fest is that noone really knows these bands, so you get to hang out
with thems. Algernon is a cool group. We got a dance pit going during

Teenage Cool Kids

I hadn't heard of them before the fest, and i'd probably be a little more well versed if they had merch...
so i don't know the names of these songs, bear with me.
I've always quietly shook my head when people tell me that you can't dance to rock music. This was a
show where dancing just couldn't be avoided. Catchy, surf rock style riffs with a punk attitude.



Bridge and Tunnel

good ol punk rock. in this vid acousticized! i can't decide if i like this better than the amped version

children of nova

This band is a bit different than the usual stuff posted but
I can't ignore the musicality they have and the pipes on their vocalist.
This one goes out to a true AMURICAN, Austin Parker.
