I used to think that labels were just symbol of pride but over time i've seen they only serve to divide it's so easy to judge people by the way they seem to be we must overcome this problem to live life peacefully break down the walls! yes, we'll break down the walls ! look beyond the fashion or the crowd that they are in look beyond their riches or the color of their skin look beyond appearance and the truth you will find look for what's inside before you make up your mind break down the walls! we'll break down the walls !
You can listen to, download, and read the lyrics for all of Neon Creeps, the new O Pioneers!! LP, here: Also, their homepage has a brand new 2009 label sampler available as a free download (just like all of their releases).
If you like melodic hardcore check out the new demo from these guys:
Members of Champion, Ruiner, Pulling Teeth and some band with too many Ys in its name. I'm excited to hear more from these guys, hopefully we'll see an east coast tour sometime soon.
Wolves in the Throne Room During the Summer of 2002 at an Earth First rendezvous in the Cascade Mountains of Washington State, guitarist Nathan Weaver was inspired to create a band that merged a Cascadian eco-spiritual awareness with the misanthropic Norwegian eruptions of the 90's. The band envisioned would strive to create a mythic space where artist and listener alike could strip away the mindset of the mundane to reveal a more ancient and transcendent consciousness. The mysterious and wild energies of the untrammeled forests of the Northwest would be channeled into sonic form.
The Dead Milkmen Punk Rock Girl
One Saturday I took a walk to Zipperhead I met a girl there and she almost knocked me dead
Punk rock girl Please look at me Punk rock girl What do you see? Let's travel round the world Just you and me punk rock girl
I tapped her on the shoulder And said do you have a beau? She looked at me and smiled and said she did not know
Punk rock girl Give me a chance Punk rock girl Let's go slam dance We'll dress like Minnie Pearl Just you and me punk rock girl
We went to the Philly Pizza Company And ordered some hot tea The waitress said well no, we only have it iced So we jumped up on the table and shouted anarchy And someone played a Beach Boys song on the jukebox It it was "California Dreamin" So we started screamin On such a winter's day
She took me to her parents for a Sunday meal Her father took one look at me and he began to squeal
Punk rock girl It makes no sense Punk rock girl Your dad is vice president Just like the Duke of Earl Yeah you're for me punk rock girl
We went to a shopping mall And laughed at all the shoppers And security guards trailed us to a record shop We asked for Mojo Nixon They said he don't work here We said if you don't got Mojo Nixon then your store could use some fixin
We got into her car away we started rollin I said how much you pay for this Said nothin man it's stolen
Punk rock girl You look so wild Punk rock girl Let's have a child We'll name her Minnie Pearl Just you and me Eat fudge banana swirl Just you and me We'll travel round the world Just you and me Punk rock girl
It's awesome to be back on the air! After a lengthy process of reapplying for shows for the new semester Left of the Dial was approved to bring you the loudest show in Boone once again. This week were some of my favorites that I've discovered over the last month and it leans heavily toward dirgey hardcore and skate punk, which only makes me wish I hadn't failed so hard at skateboarding in my life.
Don't you hate when you find out that bands you've just heard of were in your vicinity at some point recently. After realizing that the only mutual myspace friend Punchhave is Kakistocracy I found out that they played in Asheville last summer. Sucks. This is as close as I'll get for now:
Italy gets down withBones Brigade:
I've really been into this Timber7" and it's dirt cheap. $4. You can email/paypal ambrose.nzams@gmail.com and he'll send you one. You can also download it in advance if you so wish here. I totally stole this from I Could Die Tomorrow, but it's a great blog and a great record, so I don't feel too bad. Go read it.
I'm getting pumped about Scion Rock Fest (sounds lame I know, but look at the lineup) andKralliceis going to be there. Original metal bands are few and far between these days.
Finally, I just read an announcement that Paint It Black scheduled a show in Johnson City, TN for March 9th. Only an hour from Boone! It's during spring break but it'll be worth the trip.
