The M/F Thread 2009: The Quickening
Sox:
I found a download link for that CTTS EP within literally 20 seconds of googling for it. If you don't have it, it's because you haven't even tried to find it. And that is why I am vocally against 99% of this thread. You're all fat and lazy from it.

Darryl, you're starting to sound like my mom. Stop whining, seriously.
Sox:
Get a real job and stop spending your money on silly things. Why don't you ever bring any nice girls around? You need to buy some nicer clothes and stop with this whole 'punk' thing. And clean your room, jeeze.

Sometimes it will take the second album uploaded or several comments on an artist before I will decide to delve into a new artist, or even genre. I would rather encourage someone to be a little lazy (because googling an album to download is a LOT less lazy than finding it here? wouldn't the un-lazy method be to get it "legitimately?") so that they say to themselves, "I have to see what this hubbub is all about," than let something beautiful go unappreciated simply because I didn't want to take up an extra 5 inches of forum space. Circle Takes the Square, in particular, is of a genre I was extremely hesitant to dive into, but they especially have helped me appreciate a HUGE variety of music.
Matt Costa - Songs We Sing
--- Quote ---Sincere but not too sincere, cute but not gorgeous, and smart enough to know to steal from the very best, former skateboard pro Matt Costa signed to surfer Jack Johnson's label on the strengths of some very workman-like pop songs and a smooth, appealing voice. Goldilockses of the world are bound to find Costa's unassuming songs just right--and if his work fails to find its way onto the soundtracks of all the hottest television shows, there is little justice in the world. Costa may croon that "These are the songs that I sing/To make the day better," but these really aren't songs so much as they're rock & roll equations. The dude combines the anglophilic sonority of Belle & Sebastian and Donovan with a taste of Elliott Smith's gorgeous downer vibe, heaping doses of the Beatles thrown in throughout. It's pleasantly chiming enough stuff to be sure: it'll just be far more interesting to see what happens once Costa has worked his way through his influences.

This actually reminds me of Andrew Bird in the variety of genres contained in a single cd. I definitely recommend.

I did that this morning, for fucks sake.
(speaking of staying punk..)
Gang Green - Another Wasted Night
Gang Green were another one of those Boston hardcore bands from the 80s. I'd first heard of them in '05 when Dropkick Murphys put out their second Singles Collection, which had a cover of "Alcohol". I didn't really pay attention again until I found the old This Is Boston, Not LA comp about a year ago. (this album is at 320kbs .mp3)
