3 songs from Crash love?! :explode:

3 songs from Crash love?! :explode:
Sounds like a sampler to me. It'll probably leak all over the internet if several media outlets get it, as is usual with samplers.

[cwhit412]

Boys Will Be Boys are great. They sound like FTSK recorded, but not as shitty live. They sound almost exactly the same as recorded. I've met them in person several times and they're nice as hell. Definitely some stuff to check out.

[FuckAutotuners]

Destination: Destroy Yourself (Alternative Rock / Grunge). They have 3 demos up, and also 3 live tracks from their second show ever with Framing Hanley. Not too bad. They're for fans of Foo Fighters, Thrice, Saves the Day.

Free 3 song download @ purevolume.com/destinationdestroyyourself

[teh_erica]

Awww, This Is Energy!

[CrimsonJihad]

thank you so much for including me in this list. i will be touring again this winter with my full band and i will be releasing a split soon with folk artist jessie williams. i also will be featured in the la magazine revamp (revampmag.com) in their next issue (though i apologize for my ugly mug and awkward appearance in advance).

sincerely,

colton saylor

[InaGreendase]

Figured In Circles took their name from SDRE...considering they sound like a heavier As Friends Rust, maybe not.

Restorations is pretty great. Hopefully I get that and the Into It. Over It. / Nanna split eventually.

Prawn EP is pretty good.

This Is Energy's name is way too close to a certain Mass. band's.

Check out the Boys Will Be Boys--Summer Tour Video

[You Won't Know]

3 songs from Crash love?! :explode:
Anybody know if the other stuff from Crash Love is better than the single?

Not one interesting note on that first song. And I really liked a lot of stuff off DecemberUnderground, including Miss Murder. Someone have some insight?

[TheTitusPants]

Posting Book Fair is much appreciated. Gonna have to check out some of the others, now, too.

[amcmsc]

book fair is the shit.

[BrittonCampbell]

Need to give This is Energy's EP a spin!!!!

[ztboy]

Wow -- just checked out the Book Fair EP and it rocks! What an awesome collection of music! Not your typical stuff, but catchy and thoughtful nonetheless.

I really really liked The Record Kid too. Every song was pretty great...but the picture of Bobby kinda freaked me out on their MySpace page.

[MusicFreak74123]

I would love if you could write a review for This is Energy!!! :]

XoXo

Yeah, i definitely think you should PLEASE give This Is Energy's new EP, "How It Begins", a review.

They're stuff is really good, and totally worth listening to. Trust me, you won't be disappointed! They have been featured on MTV's Buzzworthy Blog (http://buzzworthy.mtv.com/2009/02/02/the-buzz-on-this-is-energy/ ), so why not write a review about them? lol.
