The Great Divide of an Ocean

So for you Humber kids that are reading this, you may or may not have met Jamie Riccotone while living in res. If you haven't, you're going to meet him through his music. I knew he was in a band called Oceans, but I never heard any of their music until this morning. They just came out with their debut album entitled The Great Divide, and lo and behold they have it up for free download. I just love it when bands do that, because you're more inclined to tell your friends about their music if they can get it fo' FREE. *ahem* sorry for the unforgivable quote. Anywho, I'm gunna quit rambling & just throw this album up for you guys so you can start listening to it already!


1. Bring Us Home
2. Find the Words
3. Martyr
4. Carrying Onwards
5. Slipping Backwards

Mystery Men

So a few months back I was listening to good ol' Last.fm radio, when I came across an artist by the name of Gena. I liked the tunes, and lucky for me a few were up for free download. I kind of just forgot about the music, until I logged in one day and under the "Free Downloads Recommended For You" section, there were a whole whack of songs by this "Gena". So I downloaded all the songs, and decided to take a gander at the artist's profile. Not much there, except for 2 pictures, 2 albums, and not even one comment. So I typed the name in Myspace to see if anything came up. Nada. So who is this mystery person/band/possible robot? I can tell you I honestly don't know, but what I do know is that I like the tunage, so I'm givin' ya Gena's debut album, Mister. It sounds like DIY garage-punk, so if you're in the mood take 'er for a spin:



1. Free Market Fight Song
2. Safety Nowhere
3. Bald and Sexy
4. Scenery
5. Feet Don't Follow
6. Goin' AWOL
7. Hand In Hand
8. Something to Starve For
9. Vulture Gourmet
10. In Good Company
11. Elegy
12. 24 Hours in Warrenton

Oh whaddaya know, in the time frame of me posting this, I dug up their dirt. Those sneaky bastards! Looks to me as if they're on a slight hiatus.
