Almost There

I've made an agreement with myself to spend most of my time on things that actually matter to me, instead of FACEBOOK... and various other useless websites. Something that matters to me is keeping up this blog, and sharing music that makes me tap my toes or feel something amazing inside. I love music. I wouldn't go so far as to say it's my "life", but it is a really important part of my life, if not one of the most important parts.

While I was home for thanksgiving I collected a crapload of new music, but considering I'm pressed for time I'm gunna start with something small. So here's The Almost's latest EP, Monster. For those of you that don't know of The Almost, it's a side project fronted by Aaron Gillespie who also plays drums/does vocals for Underoath. Note that if you like Underoath, this is not the same ind of music. But I think you'll like it anyway.


1. Lonely Wheel
2. Hands
3. July
4. Birmingham
5. Monster

And this is the first song I heard by them:

Dirty and Left Out

Let's Go to Paris

Back in January, I went to a Speak of the Devil show at the Kathedral with a few of the res boys, and for some reason this one band's name stuck in my head. Their name was Dancing With Paris, so I decided to check out their Myspace to gain any recollection of why I remembered them so well. Lo and behold, they put up their demo to download for free. These guys are from Toronto, and I'd say their music is in between the genres of Being-Angry-Enough-to-Scream-At-Inanimate-Objects and Throwing-Copius-Amounts-of-Heavy-Things-At-Walls. They encouraged me to pass the demo around, so if you're into the hardcore/experimental-esque scene check 'er out:


1. Dirty 40's
2. There's No Mercy in War
3. Hardcore Like Bruce Willis
4. Witch Hunt
5. Bled Dry
