I Have 15 Dollars to Spend on iTunes

[Domcakes]

And I don't know what to get.

I want to buy an album or EP from a lesser known band. I normally get my music a different, "cheaper" way, but this time I'd like to pay for something good and to someone who really needs it.

I'm looking for recommendations here.
More recently I've been listening to:
Me Vs Hero,
Two O'clock Courage,
Thievery Corporation,
& Motion City Soundtrack.

I know it's a somewhat diverse list, but that should make it easier for you.
But yeah, anything like that. Your help is appreciated.

[Brand-new-123]

The Snake The Cross The Crown - Cotton Teeth

[more heart]

With The Punches - Keep It Going. Pretty much the same style of pop punk/hardcore as Me Vs. Hero.

[Max_123]

Seven Story Fall- The Getaway

[Cameronisonfire]

Just get Bio-Dome.

[re7ard1337]

Vera - The Sound

[friskycurtain]

If you don't have "Throw Down" or "Capital H" by Motion City...get them.

[codybretto13]

adventures in Tokyo-Calibretto13 (I HIGHLY suggest, Calibreto13 isnt a band anymore but there still one of my favorites.

[Alex DiVincenzo]

Transit/Man Overboard split that came out at the beginning of the month is pretty sweet.

[anthonydarko]

I have $28 bucks to spend on iTunes. Should I use part of it to buy Dear Jack?

You made a wise choice. If you dig what you hear, check out the past material from both bands. There's a link to download Man Overboard's first EP for free in our review (http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=1008232).

Crazy, I remember trying to find this album all over the net not 2 months ago, but had no luck. Thanks for reminding me now that I have money. =P

Nice. See you there, hopefully. Think I'm riding solo.

Good call. I back Jeff Kummer hard.

Thanks for the link, I'm downloading right now.
No problem. Enjoy.

[Domcakes]

Just in case anyone cares, I went with:

Man Overboard / Transit - Split EP
Parov Stelar's Monster EP
With the Punches' Keep It Goin'
We Were Promised Jetpacks' These Four Walls

Ended up having to spend six of my actual dollars and not gift card money, but it seems worth it so far. Liking most of everything I got.
Thanks for your help.

Pre-Order Motion City Soundtrack's new album and get the bonus tracks?

[brandino15]

Moving Mountains - Pneuma and/or Foreword EP.
this band deserves so much more recognition than they're currently getting.

[Big_Guy]

With The Punches - Keep It Going. Pretty much the same style of pop punk/hardcore as Me Vs. Hero.

I was gonna say this.

I love them so much. They're local to me so I've seen them play a few times. What band do you play in?

and I don't know why, but WTP sounds so much more genuine than any of these other breakdown bands.

I didn't know that was up on iTunes...

[theguy77]

yeah man! wish i could have put it up for cheaper though :-(

its really more like a donation than anything. im fine with anyone who wants to download my record for free and maybe they'd rather give me 2 dollars than 10 dollars; im fine with them just buying two songs and downloading the rest.

Oh so it all has to be 99c?

And yea I know, 'cause you're cool like that, haha.

Oh, and have you played the GT5 demo yet?

[theguy77]

Oh so it all has to be 99c?

yeah, and i couldnt sell the whole album any cheaper than 9.99. i wanted it to be 5 bucks.

And yea I know, 'cause you're cool like that, haha.

fuck man gran tourismo games are like radiohead albums, both in terms of how much i anticipate them, and in how much gets put into them and how long they take.

Yea it was supposed to come out in December, but they started working on like an all-new damage mechanics system so that extended it. It'll be worth it once we get it.

[xxemo_kittyxx]

I usually have a list of albums I want to purchase, which comes from the albums that I download and thought the artist deserved credit. Not sure if you have the same, but if you do get something from that list.

Yeah most of their shows are like that too, but they've toured with I Call Fives and Thieves in the past.

Ahhh, I know you guys. I DL'd your demos from one of those pop punk blogs a few weeks back. Really enjoyed it.

I know exactly what you mean. They say what they mean and mean what they say.

This Condition - We Don't Have to Be Alone EP
Awesome band.

[MattADALIE]

I got a good one for you. If you're looking for an EP of a lesser-known band, like mine, we have our debut EP, Awake, available on iTunes for $4.95 (that includes five tracks). Then, you'll still have funds left over for more music. Just search "adalie" in iTunes music store and you'll find it.
