Devon Kay & Solutions EP...pretty damn sweet

Deep Elm Records compilation is always good. On the compilation check out Les Sages and Ride Your Bike two quality bands.

is it just me or is mediafire extremely slow these past few weeks ?

The Deep Elm Records sampler is just epic

Scott Beowulf rules for including Gayngs in his RIYL.

Thank you for posting our EP! (Devon Kay & the Solutions "Songs to Sing With)
We hope you like it! If your a fan of Say Anything, Los Campesinos!, Bomb the Music Industry! or any form of punk that takes a little bit of thought and initiative. . . you should check it OUT!
Love
Devon Kay

Loving the tunes, dude. Well done!

lots of RIYL's for This Will Destroy You

i noticed that about "this will destroy you"
i kinda like the other band that has a girl singer though, kaleidoscope brighter

god i just wanna stick my dick in DK&S' EP oh also chocolate sauce, and maybe drip some of that juice- that-sometimes-comes-out-of-the-bottom-of-a-garbage-bag-on-especially-dirty-trips-to-the-dumpster on it.

Oh yeah dude totally like when you pull the draw strings on the garbage bag but you pull them too tight too fast and trash juice sprays you in the face and you can't help but find the nearest plastic soda bottle and rub one out
