Music Tip – Noise By Numbers
July 19th, 2010 / No Comments » / by Jonathan Young
New week and tons of new music – getting it started off this week is the band Noise By Numbers – here’s some basic info about the band from Jim DeRogatis before you get to dive in and let your ears enjoy the vibrations:
“Though two of its members have much higher-profile pedigrees — Dan “Vapid” Schafer has played in Screeching Weasel and the Riverdales, as well as leading the Methadones, and Jeff Dean is in the Bomb — their new collaboration, Nosie By Numbers, with bassist Rick Uncapher (Textbook) and drummer Jimmy Lucido could easily be overlooked outside the punk underground, and that would be a shame. Noise By Numbers draws inspiration from the fertile ’80s indie-rock scene of Husker Du, the Replacements, Dinosaur Jr. and their ilk as well as classic Chicago punk sounds like Naked Raygun and the Effigies to inject a heaping dose of sing-along melody into every propulsive and hard-hitting groove, making for an instantly familiar yet somehow distinctive and fresh-sounding formula.”

Music Tip – The Real Danger
May 24th, 2010 / 1 Comment » / by Jonathan Young
Rainy outside today and I have a day off (yeah, another German holiday) so I’m checking out bands I haven’t heard of much before like I do once and a while. Today I seem to be in a melodic punk mood as the guys from “The Real Danger” out of Rotterdam, The Netherlands have really made it into my skull while I’m typing away on my laptop. Easy going music, no frills, just straight forward easy listening music with some good vocals and a band that backs it up well. Listen in to some of their latest efforts right here and I’ve thrown in a video clip as well. Read more…

The Mighty Mighty Bosstones Release New Record
December 9th, 2009 / 1 Comment » / by Jonathan Young
“Pin Points and Gin Joints” is the name of the brand new studio album just released by The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, seven years after their last album “A Jackknife to a Swan” which was release on SideOneDummy Records. After just having a listen it sounds to me like nothing has changed. Sure, it’s not as raucous as some of the earlier recordings but it does get you wanting to dance. If you like ska then this is definitely a record for you. The Bosstones are back and playing three shows in – where else? – Boston from December 26th – 28th. At the time of writing this two of three shows are already sold out.

Music Check-Out: Hatebreed
October 20th, 2009 / No Comments » / by Jonathan Young
I have always been a fan of loud guitars and screaming singers – there is just something about it that gets my blood boiling and puts me in the mood to get something done, basically have fun and enjoy myself. But there are loads of bands that put together a good record which doesn’t quite make it to a great record which you play over and over again – a record you remember.
Hatebreed’s fifth album gets the not too original name of, yeah “Hatebreed” but regarding the rest of this package, it is absolutely fantastic! If you like death/groove metal then this is one record you have to get…listen in here:

Music Tip – Threat Signal new record Vigilance
September 6th, 2009 / No Comments » / by Jonathan Young
Trying to keep myself on schedule with at least one new music update daily to keep the area moving and I again couldn’t resist plugging in some heavier tunes into the site for you to listen to. Threat Signal has recently brought out their latest release entitled “Vigilance” and are proving with it that they can back up their earlier releases with even more powerful musical combinations. The Canadian metal powerhouse took their time with this album and the result is just mind shattering – listen in while you can on their MySpace page as the entire album is being streamed (as of September 6th 2009).
You can buy the new Vigilance album September 8th 2009 in America and September 11th 2009 in Europe. And to let you find out more about this great band, watch the “Making of Vigilance” video right here!
