Premature Infatuation - We Came as Romans

who: We Came as Romans
why: because they're one of the latest bands to be signed to one of my favorite record companies, Equal Vision, and have announced their first full-length release, 'To Plant a Seed' will be available November 3rd. Go listen!

WE'LL DO IT LIVE! - Paramore

who: Paramore
why: is it just me, or was this really boring?

New Release Tuesday - September 29th

who: weaksauce
why: because nothing can really compare to what's dropping next week (The Fall of Troy and HORSE the band). This week we have Omar Rodriguez Lopez with another release that'll likely end up being many layers of noise that people will claim is a "masterpiece". I personally think he doesn't have to put every single thing he writes down on a record... but maybe that's just me, and maybe I should actually listen to it before I say it sucks. Second we have Paramore. They made the cover of AP magazine this month and the article makes them out to be some sort of legendary revolution of genre fusion... I'm not gonna lie, I liked Riot!... and I liked playing Paramore songs on rock band even more, but I gave a listen to 'Brand New Eyes' and got nothing. I was waiting for it to be over. Wow, I just read this over and realized how harsh I'm being... point of the matter is that if you like Omar or Paramore, today might be a good day - but I'm just waiting for next week.
