Review: Lee Corey Oswald / Three Man Cannon

Letters Home – Take Your Time

Posted on January 1st, 2013 at 12:30 pm by Cole Faulkner in Pop-Punk | One comment

Here’s an awesome little five track EP to kick off the year. The drummer is of former Look Mexico fame who met up with David Settle (of Ex-Breathers and Quiet Clouds – neither of which I’m familiar with) and created something of a gritty little off-key pop-punk(ish?) masterpiece that already has me anticipating where the band will go next… I don’t really have a RIYL list for these guys, so just check them out first hand!

CZAR – Old Haunts

Posted on December 2nd, 2012 at 11:00 am by Cole Faulkner in Melodic Hardcore | One comment

Here’s some really funky…metal-tinged dancecore? Pretty crazy stuff. Loads of screams, crazy guitar work, and peculiar rhythms.

Road To Manila – Distance

Posted on November 19th, 2012 at 2:00 pm by Cole Faulkner in Hardcore, Screamo | One comment

Road To Manila play some pretty in your face post-hardcore punk. With plenty of belted vocals, some well used down time, and a tough as nails attitude, the Denmark quintet are a band for fans of contemporary hardcore and screamo.

Songs For Snakes – Charcoal Heather

Posted on November 5th, 2012 at 8:30 pm by Cole Faulkner in Punk | 2 comments

Here’s a good one from Songs For Snakes (sadly no relation to Awesome Snakes), a San Francisco band with a good ear for craggy melodic punk rock/post-punk – you know, the type we love No Idea Records and all their affiliated labels for. Their official self released debut, Charcoal Heather, is sure to get them noticed, especially at their name what you want asking price. Gotta love this new digital music paradigm, band’s see vast exposure, and people like us get more music than we’ll ever need.

Among Giants – Truth Hurts

Posted on October 8th, 2012 at 9:00 pm by Cole Faulkner in Rock | 2 comments

It’s been longer than a while since something’s been posted around these free music blog parts, so what better to resurrect this little project than some quality 90′s inspired indie-punk tunes. The artist is Among Giants, and the sound feels like something that you might expect to find on a split or an EP from Paper + Plastick Records. Worth checking out for sure, Failure’s Union fans in particular should take note.

Riot Agents – 2 Albums

Posted on December 14th, 2011 at 12:30 pm by Cole Faulkner in Metal, Punk | One comment

That Riot Agents live for the energy of punk rock and the speed of thrash metal could be no more apparent than with their latest album Who Cares!. The album features nine tracks of gruff melodic speed drawing upon everything from The Ramones, Iron Maiden and The Misfits, to Judas Priest, Kiss, Ozzy, and The Adicts. Plenty of loud times to be had. They’re quite opinionated and extreme, so don’t say I didn’t warn you! Oh, and their first effort, Too Hard To Fall, ain’t too shabby either.

Dead United – Two Albums

Posted on December 12th, 2011 at 12:30 pm by Cole Faulkner in Punk | One comment

Dead United is one of those underground European horror gems that if it wasn’t for music discovery tools like Jamendo, you could go your whole life without ever crossing paths. Thankfully their two masterfully melodic horror punk offerings, Chainsaw Chronicles and 3D Audio Horror can now haunt you regardless of your final resting place. As a rather vocal fan of the horror genres I can say with confidence that anyone with a love for quirky melodic punk should embrace this spook-tacular ghoul fest and succumb to the ensuing fever. For fans of Blood Sucking Zombies From Outer Space, The Other, and Nim Vind.

Zombie Fight – Broke For Tomorrow Volume 1

Posted on December 10th, 2011 at 12:30 pm by Cole Faulkner in Melodic Hardcore, Punk | 3 comments

As a big Walking Dead fan, I endorse the name Zombie Fight as a band name. Zombie Dead plays a classic NYC hardcore punk sound heavy on aggression, relentless drumming, featuring a few melodic guitar bridges that help modernize the effort. Check out their debut EP Broke For Tomorrow for a better idea.

Rejectioneers – 25 (EP)

Posted on December 8th, 2011 at 12:30 pm by Cole Faulkner in Indie | One comment

Here’s an indie band out of Columbia, SC who have self released a pretty darn solid piece of indie. 25 is an easy listen made so by Rejectioneers’ knack for great melodies and strong collective personality. Strong lead vocals and a lush soundscape suggest that the next album is destined to be picked up for an official label release. Get this one while it’s free!

Dine Alone Records is getting in the spirit of the holiday season and has released a generous holiday sampler from a whole load of talented indie artists. From Deep Tick to Parlovr and City and Colour, the label’s roster has steadily improved over the years into the masterful list that is today. Simply a great playlist.
