You recommend anything then?

if Hearing Colors meant that they sound like Fall of Troy due to their lack of production and singing ability then they're spot on!

EDIT: I'm sorry guys - I didn't mean a word - I like to support unsigned bands with all my heart. I'm sorry.

Futures are a pretty good UK band if you're into the poppier side of things.

Polinski track is great too.

appreciate your kind words!

Checking out Long Live and Manchurian Incident. No full lengths

So far I'm liking the Manchurian Incident. If you want to listen to their whole EP and get the whole thing I'd recommend just going here.

I saw The Make live last week and they played that EOTS cover, loved their version. Excited to see it on here today!

Free EP from The Lion Faced Boy. Killer.

why make fun of both bands? Production is real rough, but lets manage expectations, alot of these releases are users new bands. I think theres some cool stuff on this, with a real recording/producer it could be cool.

thanks man, glad not everyone is an internet bad-ass. For the record, we recorded and mixed the EP completely on our own, in our singers bedroom. Not everyone can afford a full fledged studio. Hopefully the next cd will be with a producer. have a good weekend.

Love The Manchurian Incident.

If you want another submission, upon the news of our breaking up, my band put their ep up for free on bandcamp. here's the link for it if anyone is interested. http://myheartmyanchor.bandcamp.com/
