Don't know what to title this one

Just wanted to share a song that is hitting the spot for me today. This record never gets old for me. Enjoy it like I am on this lovely fall day. Peace.

Metal Monday

Ok, so I just came up with the idea of having a metal monday for my blog for the metal heads out there. For whatever reason monday just seems to be a good day to listen to metal. Thoughts? PLEASE LET ME KNOW GUYS!!!

Well regardless of whether metal monday will become a weekly installment, today is going to be metal monday cause I feel like it. Today's tune is one I've listened to for awhile now and always revisit when I'm in mood for some good metal. It's by a hardcore band called As Blood Runs Black and has one of the best double kick lines I've heard. Check it out. Even if you hate metal, you can still appreciate the talent within metal, you just have to listen!

2 New Music Videos

I just stumbled upon this video on XCLR8R and thought it was worth sharing with everybody. Lorn is a Milwaukee based producer, so not far from home and has created a music video that fits nicely along with the single the video is for. Check it out cause whether you dig the tunes or not, it goes well together and is worth seeing/hearing at least once.

Another video I happened to come across was this lovely Rone - Parade music video which has a bunch of shots chopped and put together very nicely. The tune is great and the music video is amazing. This video is even more so than the Lone worth checking out and once you enjoy it you will understand why.

Haven't posted in awhile.....

So I will begin by saying, I apologize to those waiting for a new post. I began student teaching within the past couple of weeks which takes up a lot of my time and if I'm not busy with that, I'm usually out and about. I will try and be better about posting stuff and force myself to at least post a quick little video or something at least!

I'm going to start this post by highlighting a band my good friend Timp turned me onto called Part Mammal. These guys are a local group which is fairly new to the scene as they only began performing live back in 2011. This has been one of my local music spotlight bands this year. They have a indie rock sound with a little distortion and some lo fi sounding effects but for the most part, your hazy indie rock sounding band. It reminds me a lot of deerhunter to be completely honest so anyway who is a fan of those guys, will dig these dudes. I haven't had a chance to catch their live act yet although I can only imagine it is great like the record being this group has such a dynamic sound that engages you. I just noticed they are playing two shows coming up, one this Thursday, Sept. 13th at the Hexagon and the other on Saturday, Sept. 29th at the 331 Club. Regardless of whether you are trying to catch this group or not, visit their bandcamp and give them a listen. The record is also on spotify. http://music.partmammal.com/music

The next and final thing I want to bring to people's attention in this post is some great recent releases. Now that things are getting in the swing of Fall records are starting to be dropped like crazy. A few records worth checking out if you have not include:

So there you have it, that should hold some over until I post next.

Until then, keep listening and enjoying the grooves.
