Texas Blind

There were a few dudes from my area who had a band...or still have a band. They always used to remind me of At The Drive-In...or maybe they still remind me of ATDI. They haven't played a show in forever and PROBABLY SHOULD GET ON THAT SOON.

Anyway, I present you all of this bands recorded material. Texas Blind is RIYL At The Drive-In, Fugazi and The Mars Volta; and even if you do not like those bands you should probably download this anyway.

One Last Wish

Damn, we fell off for a minute.

Anyway...I've been listening to this alot lately.

Completely underestimated this band. Kind of sounds like Rites of Spring (which is fitting because this band formed out of their break up) mixed with The Clash/Joy Division. Super catchy hooks with lots of punk energy and I love Guy Picciotto's vocals on this.

Life Detecting Coffins

In my opinion, probably the best band from Orange County, NY (just waiting for the response comment on that) and when you share members with Off Minor, it's not hard to see why.

Haunting, simple melodies dancing amongst sparse monotone vocals summarize Life Detecting Coffins interesting and original sound. You can hear influences of Fugazi, Black Flag, At The Drive-In and early 90's screamo.

Catatonic Begat Napoleonic

Bill Tone, I still want your guitar, but Dave Grohl had to steal that shit.
