Cage the Elephant

I don't know why, but this song reminds me of my buddy Dave. Not the "in one ear" bit, but the phrasing and the feel of the song overall. I guess you'd have to know Dave. Make sure to check out the flyer for the band that Dave is in after the video.

Excuses, Exodus, and Aldershof

Sorry for the lack of posts lately, been busy and not very motivated (which isn't a good combination). Last week I did manage to see (not necessarily in this order): Exodus, Goatwhore, Warbringer, Every Time I Die, From First to Last, August Burns Red, Human Abstract, and another one I can't remember. The first three were one show and the rest were at another. To complete the hat trick, this weekend I will be seeing Fu Manchu (!!), ASG, and Savoiurs.

I don't know a lot about these guys other than they fancy some odd time signatures.

Year Long Disaster

If this song doesn't make you a believer, I will have to insist on an autopsy. I think that good music must be at least partly due to genetics. Or could it be the nurture side? Either way, Dave Davies passed on a set of musical cajones the size of Saturn. His son Daniel is stellar. That is the bassist from Karma to Burn and the drummer from Third Eye Blind, if you were curious.

Totimoshi

I have an assignment for you. Watch this video at least three times, in a row. Three times in a row, really loud. This is the shape of music to come. Mark my words. This kind of powerful music will happen more often in the near future.
I want a shirt that says "My Devil Comes" (hint-hint).

Whoremoan

Some good stoner type stuff from the UK's Whoremoan. Check out their MySpace tunes, too.

Every Time I Die

I get to see these guys in a couple of weeks. I can't wait. It is one stop on the Take Action tour.

Goatsnake

After the Obsessed, came Goatsnake. More info here. They almost remind me of Bongzilla, but with cleaner vocals.
