why: because I haven't posted anything in awhile... been kinda busy. This is the first thing I've seen in some time I felt was worth posting. If you don't know The Dangerous Summer... think of a more layered and technical version of The Starting Line. I like em.

VOTW - April 9, 2010
who: Freelance Whales
why: are the shit. I was really pumped when I heard they made a video for this song ("Generator ^ 2nd Floor"). It's one of the best singles I've heard in a long time - definitely my choice for last year's song of the year (maybe tied with Manchester Orchestra's "I Can Feel a Hot One")... but either way check out the new vid.
WE'LL DO IT ACOUSTIC!
Suck it Dex, this is a pretty solid live version.

WAFFLE FRIES: Download their new song "Solid Ground"
WE'LL DO IT LIVE! - Manchester Orchestra

Friday Flashback - Bayside
who: Bayside
why: one of my favorite bands of all time, I've been listening to this album a lot recently since I got their self-titled on reprinted vinyl in the mail the other day... soooooo good. Here's an acoustic performance of probably my favorite song from the record - "Montauk".

WE'LL DO IT ACOUSTIC! - New Found Glory
who: New Found Glory
why: my last live video for the day... I promise? NFG take it back a ways and perform "Something I Call Personality". WHERE'S IAN?!
WE'LL DO IT LIVE! - Manchester Orchestra
who: Manchester Orchestra
why: because I've been going overkill on the live videos recently... and the latest addition is from Andy Hull and his boys' performance last night on Jimmy Kimmel. Every track on 'Mean Everything to Nothing' approaches perfection, but "In My Teeth" was one of the few I have yet to see live and I'm glad they hardened it a little for the performance. Any thoughts on the new drummer, or how cracked out the keyboardist always looks? I love everything about this band.
PS: who wants to go see them with me March 23rd at the Metro in Chicago?!
