Mira was also nice enough to send me a physical copy of their beautiful record. The cover is made with lino printed artwork with a 4-sided Booklet and several drawings made by the band. Something that I definitely appreciate! I cannot wait to see what they will do with their 12''. Stay tuned!

There is supposedly some unreleased stuff from them out there: a 4-Track recording of the LP, the song "Orchestra", live recordings of at least two unreleased songs.

request stuff if you want im still here

if any of the links of any posts are down or you want to request a band just send me an e-mail (you'll find it at the right) or leave a comment! i'm still alive, just barely breathing.

Bands who deserve your attention

I added a new element to my sidebar called "Bands who deserve your attention". I get so many active bands asking me if I want to review their stuff and I don't really do that since I mainly post 'dead' bands here, but I still feel like some of the bands are so amazing they definitely deserve some kind of recognition. So, if you have a band or you know a really cool band or something feel free to mail me and if I like the tunes enough I'll add a link to the list.

Split w/ Turbo Slut (2009)

Cold World/Guilt (2011)

I wanted to post this band ever since I heard of them but since I'm a lazy typist I didn't post them, until now! I present you the entire Pygmy Lush discography! In case you haven't heard of Pygmy Lush before (shame on you!) they're a folk/indie band from Sterling, Virginia. The band was formed by ex-pg.99 members and are accompanied by other band members that were in bands such as City of Caterpillar, Majority Rule and Malady. I don't think I've come across a band lately that gives me chills like Pygmy Lush does and I have no words to properly describe them. Just listen to them and you'll understand what I'm talking about.

I Have Dreams

Three Days 'Til Christmas (1999)

I Have Dreams was one of the finest screamo bands around in the 90s. They were born from the ashes of the band New Ethic, after their guitar player Daniel died in a car accident. I Have Dreams were more than a band - in the words of Mike Peters (vocals): “It was an attempt to cope with the pain everyone was feeling after Daniel’s death.”  They were together for roughly six months, and they broke up in the Spring of 1999.
