Party At The Moontower – Fifty Year Storm

Posted May 22nd, 2010 by Cole Faulkner in Post-Hardcore | No comments yet.

Here’s a great little sip of post-punk from Juicebox Records. The band is Vancouver’s Party At The Moontower, and their new EP, Fifty Year Storm, isn’t the first time they’ve gone through juicebox’s donation based label for distribution. Check ‘em out, if you enjoy it, you can always give’m a penny (or a buck or two) for their thoughts.

Tiger Riot – Look Up

Posted May 4th, 2010 by Cole Faulkner in Pop-Punk, Post-Hardcore, Punk | No comments yet.

Now here’s something fun and ambitious. At first it might seem like some glossy power-pop band – and you’d be right. But they have a little something more than just garden variety hooks and slick hair. It’s tough to place a finger on, but if you like post-punk, then you stand a chance at getting into this.

Hunt Club – Self Titled LP

Posted February 26th, 2010 by Cole Faulkner in Post-Hardcore | No comments yet.

Hunt Club has crafted a short but great post-punk debut that draws on a little bit of everything. And I mean everything – there’s even a few banjos and accordion flourishes here and there. Oddly the combination works wonders and makes for an engrossing 20 minute adventure that is anything but predictable. Recommended for those who want something a little different.

The Wagner Logic – Easiest To Grab

Posted February 13th, 2010 by Cole Faulkner in Indie, Post-Hardcore | No comments yet.

This Saturday’s second album will find it’s greatest appreciation from fans of experimental punk indie band’s like Brand New. The unique combination of emotional vocals and low key melodies has made this one of my favourite free releases in recent memory. Consequently I listen to it as much as, if not more, than anything I’ve purchased recently. The second track, Ambulance, is an instant classic. Play this track for some friends and you’re guaranteed to have them asking you for the artist name and track title.

Over Stars and Gutters – Consider This Your Curse

Posted February 6th, 2010 by Bobby Gorman in Post-Hardcore, Punk | No comments yet.

Last year, one of my favourite records was a CD from a band called Over Stars and Gutters. They’re a relatively small band from Oklahoma but their self-released CD, Consider This Your Curse simply blew me away. The vocals were raw, think Hot Water Music, the music intense, think Lifetime meets Dillinger Four, and the passion was undeniable. I must have been on to something, because since then they’ve been picked up by Black Number Records who have just re-released the CD. If that’s not enough, they’ve only posted the release as a donation based download – so check it out, I can guarantee you’ll love it (and when you do, think about donating something to the band).
