New Music Tuesday!! 6/20/06

I'm Sick of hearing about the radio stations talking about the new hit music that comes out every tuesday. Most of what they tell you about is crap anyway. I once heard while I was listening to 101.7 theFox, this guy give his usual New music Tuesday report. I was absolutely disgusted when he said, "Sorry everybody, there is no new rock music that comes out today.""But make sure you pick up the recently released Disturbed album, "Ten Thousand Fists", in stores now." WHAT???????? NO ROCK ALBUMS COME OUT TODAY?? It just so happened that on that very day, Project 86 was releasing their new album, And the rest will follow. No Rock albums?? Who is this jack ass?? Project 86 is one of the best rock bands of this decade and he mentions Disturbed? Whatever. That's why I have decided to start a blog of my own that let's you know about the good music that comes out on Tuesday's. So, since music is what I love, I will do my best to bring you this information every Tuesday, if any good music comes out at all. So we begin with today which has three new releases that are promising...

Define The Great Line: Underoath has run into soaring popularity after their last CD, They're only chasing safety, got them noticed by people everywhere. In fact, They are on the Warped Tour this year and have been getting lots of play on MTV2 and Fuse. While I'm not sure yet if this CD will be as good as their last, my hopes are high. Underoath has a great way of making screamo/hardcore vocals bring out the insanity in you. Whenever I listen to them, I get a inspired, this fricken rocks, feeling that you can't help but love even if the constant screaming gets on your nerves. I did listen to a few of the new songs on their pure volume page. They still have that same sound that gets you on your feet. The screamer has added a deeper, metal scream in some areas which should add some variety. I can't really critique the album because I don't have it yet. But I can say it does look to be promising and is a must purchase for all of the hardcore fans out there.

Live at the Heineken Music Hall in New Amsterdam: Counting Crows is my favorite band and to those who know me this is no secret. While I have been disappointed that the band has not released a new record and will not until late 06-07, I am excited about this record. Anything they do is gold to me and even though it another live album with all songs I've heard before, it will definitely be in my collection. Their activity of late has been limited due to Adam's personal problems and issues, but the band is finally touring again with the Goo Goo Dolls so check them out if you get a chance. Adam also took time out to appear on Dashboard Confessional's new cd coming out soon. Anyway, the up side to this record even if you don't like live albums and have heard these songs too much is there is a new song on this record. I guess it is just a teaser for us loyal fans waiting for the next release. I still highly recommend it. Were talking about one of the greatest bands ever to walk this earth. Trust me, they never disappoint.

This Town's Disaster: Blackpool Lights is a new alternative band started by Jim Suptic, The Get up Kids. I heard about them because I was interested in what members of the Get up kids were doing. I found this band and went to their my space page. I was impressed. If anyone knows alternative, indie/emo, its the Get up kids. Anyway, this band has a great sound that is perfect listening music if your traveling somewhere. I contribute their sound to bands like Fair, Feilding, and of course the Get up kids. Best Buy has this record for sale for 8 bucks, so pick it up. Also, their on tour with Anberlin at the moment so if you get a chance to see that show, it would be amazing. I also highly recommend this one.

So there you have it. Your new music for Tuesday, June 20th. Happy listening!!!!

The New Underoath album is sick. Not sure if it is as good as the first. I'll have to give it some time. I don't know about Dead Poetic's new one yet, but their just about as due for a new record as Filling the Void. But as soon as it drops, you'll find it out here at Brent's blog. What a shameless plug for my own blog! Bow before the mighty DISTURBED!!
