Modern Life Is War- Witness

Making come true our modest impossible dreams. Stuck in public school classrooms at age 15.
Those long hot days just before the summer knowing that we're stuck here
And there's something happening somewhere knowing we know we gotta get there.
It's true what they say. Death is more perfect than life. That's why we already died.
What could have been? We don't wanna know.Tonight we'll get our kicks. Tonight we're all letting go!'Cause we're all Dead Ramones!

Sore back! Sore feet! A ragtag army and we're sick in the heat.
We're not pretty and we're not rich. We're gonna hafta fucking work for it.
It's our life! We do what we choose! Black Jeans. Black Shirt. Black Shoes.
Mom and Dad still don't approve.

Twenty eight shows. 28 days.
Pulling up new rogues all along the way.
I'm just another face in this desperate youth parade.
And all the bunk beds locked doors, hardwood, sweat,
Guts, skateboards, cold war bomb shelter basement screams, no sleep, good dreams.
We're playing hard as we can and a whole lotta time stuck in the van.
Reading the graffiti on every bathroom wall in truck stop fast food hell.
Save me from ordinary. Save me from myself.
Another punk rock summer came and went
Now I just wanna go back home and turn up my stereo
Until the rhythm melts my bones 'cause I'm a Dead Ramone

Guster - Lost and Gone Forever

god I love feel-good indie pop

i really do

Agalloch - Ashes Against the Grain

Post-black metal from Oregon. This might the most beautiful music ever that will still make you want to kill yourself.

Cannibal Ox- The Cold Vein

one of cokemachineglow's hip hop albums of the decade. music made by black people approved by white people!

what you figure? that chalky outline on the ground is a father figure?

Emery - ...In Shallow Seas We Sail

Standard hardcore, but done better than standard hardcore

music

Pretty Lights

A dude and his DJ from Colorado making sick dubstep beats with melodic samples and exotic harmony. It's spacey and trippy, and awesome chill music. The best part is, a la In Rainbows you can download all of their albums for free from their website, although they deserve a generous donation. They're all great but Taking Up Your Precious Time is a good record to start at.

do it up

The National- High Violet

About a month ago, I said that The National's latest album could be a strong contender for album of the year. High Violet is now streaming at the New York Times website. And yes, as per usual, I am right.

BORIS - Pink

Stoned Japanese punks play doom metal shit

At the Drive-In - Relationship of Command

Though their all-too-short career spawned The Mars Volta and Sparta, At the Drive-In is by far the most powerful group of the three. A unique blend of punk, hardcore, and post-grunge are synthesized to have the following effect: "Did you hear? Five guys from El Paso, Texas have found a way to condense pure energy and convert it into music. They call it Relationship of Command," as Matt Conrad of sputnikmusic.com says. Don't miss out

Animal Collective- Feels

Being that today is today (a Tuesday), I thought I'd post Feels.

I don't think there's been an album I've been so passionate to defend and explain to anyone who will listen or even to those that won't. I think I do this more to hear myself think than to convince others of its quality; the fact of the matter is that, unlike, say, that other Animal Collective album (you know, with the wallpaper cover), I could care less what others think about Feels because I'm still figuring this one out myself. I've been living in Feels for about two years now, and I'm still finding new reasons to love it. Passages once overshadowed by just how fucking good "Banshee Beat" is are still revealing themselves and I suspect several more are lurking behind "Grass" and "Purple Bottle." I mean, I'm not even going to pretend to understand "Bees" yet but "Daffy Duck" has started to evolve into something that will make me like Feels even more. And I already have this as my number one album of all time. Of all time!

you should turn into something

Against Me! - Reinventing Axl Rose

everything, you've got to hold onto everything

Circa Survive- Blue Sky Noise

Better than anything these guys have put out before. Thrilling stuff plus Anthony Green still lacks testes which makes for some tortured vocals.

Blue Sky Noise

Freelance Whale - Weathervanes

How many stars think you possess? How many in your butterfly net? Build me a star in your forehead, you were so misunderstood back then

weathervanes

Pinkerton - Weezer

Remember when Weezer was good? This is what made Rivers Cuomo and his grungy, power-pop sound so popular in the 90s.

Download here.

Dystopia - Human = Garbage

This has been described as "one of the most miserable and depressing albums ever recorded." If you like crust punk talking about how humanity is a cancer this is for you.

Taking Back Sunday- Tell All Your Friends

WE WON'T STAND FOR HAZY EYES ANYMORE

now which would you prefer? My finger on the trigger or MIDFACE DOWNTOWN ACROSS YOUR FLOOR

you're such a sucker

The best albums have eggs on the cover. It's science.

The White Stripes - Icky Thump

Because who honestly hasn't hung out with a one-eyed red-head in Mexico after a night of heavy drinking?

Icky Thump

El Guincho - Alegranza

Happy Spanish indie rock bro

Owen Pallet- Heartland

Owen Pallett used to be named Final Fantasy which makes me think of playstation which makes me think of metal gear solid and I like all things that lead back to Snake.
