We used to be called Good Cop, Bear Cop and we just posted a new song "Let The Right One In" at www.myspace.com/wearestrongwaves
feedback would be huge, good or bad.

Myspace rapes the quality of songs, so you can download the new song in high quality at http://wearestrongwaves.bandcamp.com/ or [most likely lesser quality] www.purevolume.com/wearestrongwaves

Our EP will be out later this month and will be available for free download, in the mean time if you could become a fan of us on our AP.net profile, it'd be huge

Better production and this would cause many an AP member to nut their pants. I enjoyed it though. And apparently that says a lot since I hate everything

This isn't the place to post your bullshit spam. No one is going to visit your site when you post the same stupid message on ten different threads at the same time. Go away.

lol the lack of respect some musicians have is staggering. We had people posting THEIR music players on OUR page last month. Obnoxious and disrespectful promotion is only going to drive people away from your shitty band.

We'll be guests on The New Music Inferno on Monday at 8. It'd be sick to get some AP members calling in and asking questions and what not. You can listen live or download the show afterwards.
Some details and previous shows can be heard here

Another short review of our debut EP, which you can download for free (along with more of our songs) at http://www.wearestrongwaves.bandcamp.com
http://thepaintedman.brookiellen.com/shorties-are-back/
By the name of the band and the EP, you could guess (and be quite accurate) that SWKWS is an eclectic indie band. Another example of great musicianship, the band tinkers with layered string arrangements in “Wolves”, jams upbeat synthesizers on “There’s Something in the Sea”, and strums acoustic on “Nothing to Write Home About”. Overall, they sound like a band without a true identity, but a band that is willing to play what they want to play. This EP shows promise and talent… even if they are from Pittsburgh. Another EP or 2 and some maturing and this could be a band to watch out for.
