Feeling a Little Down Tonight? This Won't Help. Just Kidding but Seriously..

My friends, my enemies, friends of my friends, friends of my enemies and anyone who is left over; it's the time of the week. No, not that time of the week. The other time. Also I feel I should warn you tonight that I'm suffering from a bad case of writer's block. I feel like I'm forcing every word I type from my brain to my fingers. It's just an overall terrible feeling, and I must say that I feel for anyone reading this now. Without further to do, lets do that thing we do..No, not that either.

I will if I may start out with a band I miss. American Head Charge. This band was absolutely amazing. They were what rock was supposed to sound like in the industrial rock scene anyways. Big sound, great vocals. Unfortunately certain chemicals got in the way of the music and after the death of guitarist Bryan Ottoson during a tour the band fell apart. Truly a shame...Although I still listen to their music.

NEW STUFF

Ok slow week for music but some highlights...

Athlete's album Black Swan was released this week. This album has everything you wanna hear. From the moment I heard this band open for Switchfoot in 2005, I knew they were something special. This band has an incredible, well HUGE sound: rumbling bass laced with echo driven guitars and on top of that orchestra like synth. This band is actually very radio friendly and I would love to hear these guys instead of everything else that I keep hearing. Give it a listen. It'll make you feel happy.

Bullet for My Valentine has a couple new songs out. These songs are really good and very well written. I'm excited for their new album. Could be their best one yet and what I think they should have sounded like all along. The album should hit stores sometime in April.

Things to Look Forward To

Like I said its been sort of a slow week for music, but there is plenty to look forward to!

EMPIRES. These guys are the future of music. They just need to be promoted. They have released some new stuff for their upcoming album which will be released Tuesday. Their previous two albums set the stage for what is to be an excellent third release. They have matured and improved in their musicality and technique and with the howling vocals they are setting the bar high for the rest of the music world.

Songs that Make Your Week Better.

The Broken- Coheed and Cambria

We Die Young - The Showdown

The Jesus Lizard - Showbread

Pink Lighted Suicide - Papercut Massacre

shouts to all my fans just wanna say I appreciate all my readers. Next week is my break, but I will have a blog for you guys next week. I apologize for the short, late blog, but I hope you enjoy. Tell All Your Friends and Enjoy Your Week!

One Love,
C2RD
