New Music

Green day and No Doubt came out with new singles. I really like both of their choruses. No Doubt's "Settle Down" I wasn't sure if I liked it at first, but it has grown on me and has been stuck in my head.

Currently Listening To....

Fun. - Some Nights

Fun. is like a modern day Queen. They're not exactly like Queen, but you can tell that they have influences from them. They have different sounds in each of their songs and the little chorus of voices. The first song that I heard and could not stop listening to was "We Are Young". I had a problem for a little while where I would turn on the radio and this song would be on, but I always caught it just as it was ending. Not anymore!! I have the CD! Once I heard the CD there was a lot that I was not expecting. There was more autotune than I expected and a bit of an electronic feel. Hey I said MODERN Queen. This song that I called "track 5" because I didn't know the name was very unexpected, but beware even though it surprises you and you're not sure if this is what you bargained for it will pull you in like an abnormally large alligator catching a cow. You'll be like "What is this?!" and then Bam! You have it stuck in your head for a week, and find yourself conjuring it up "What was that song again? Oh yeah!" aaaand it's stuck. "It Gets Better"

More: "Some Nights", "Carry On", "All Alone", "All Alright"

Alkaline Trio - Agony & Irony

I love the song "Love, Love, Kiss, Kiss". I think it's funny when songs aren't fans of love and they make fun of other people being in love. There are a lot of good songs on this one. This may be one of my favorites from them. There are a lot that are easy to sing along with and some that will be stuck in your head the next day.

Some great songs: "Calling All Skeletons", "I Found Away", "Do You Wanna Know?"

There are more...so get the CD.

No Doubt - Rock Steady

I love No Doubt. I remember always waiting for the radio to play "Hey Baby". This CD can't go wrong with songs like that and hits "Hella Good" and "Underneath It All"

New Punk Finds

The Forgotten

A Global Threat

Chaotic Alliance



The Abused

Don't Judge...People Do Meth

Both of these songs are from artists that I usually don't listen to, but these two songs have somehow made their way through the barricades of my mind. I blame the chorus, both are catchy. And catchy is my weakness along with square dancing, but we'll save that for a rainy day.


The first one is in that huge rock genre that branches off into whatever it can to get it's grimy little hands on. Not that it's a bad thing... sometimes. But this band is pretty close to others that I listen to, so it's not a huge surprise I guess.

And now ..... the one you don't tell anyone you like, unless they say something first and then you have this moment where all the confessions poor out about how one of you likes the tune to "Hot n' Cold"and the other admits that "MMMBop" changed their life. Trust me it happens. Don't judge.... people do meth. (Ha I use that saying way too much, I blame you! You know who you are!)

New Find/Artist Friday Moment

Why have I never heard of these guys? I don't know, so don't ask, but they're great.

Unfortunately there's not much you can find on them, so random youtube videos!

The Frantic

New Metric

Metric just came out with a new song, "Youth Without Youth". Check it out here. 

I like it, it's got a great beat. It's a head bobber. 

And they also have a new album, Synthetica, coming out in early June. I think it's going to be a good one.

If you haven't heard Metric, I recommend the album Fantasies, it's my favorite CD from them so far.
