end of a year and half hearted hero are both great

[OdeToTheSun]

I've been meaning to check out Narrows, but haven't got to it yet. I shall later.

[HammersNStrings]

I checked out A Modern Love Story... Not bad.

I thought I had read something about them somewhere before in some Chicago paper, something comparing them to Fall Out Boy. It's clear the reviewer didn't actually listen to their music at all before writing about it.

[DRUMMERGIRL121]

David Moore!

[denissuxx]

Nothing of interest this week

[Gahed Indie]

Sha-zam. Gahed Indie.


Thank you Linda.
