Two-story Friday.
who: Conditions
why: just put up a stream of their 2009 'You Are Forgotten' EP on PureVolume, check it out!

Their first album with Rise is set to be out February 10th, 2010, so be on the look out!

Eyegasm - Zombieland
who: Zombieland
why: it was like a funnier, action-packed, white men can't jump better version of Adventureland. The similarities are hard to ignore. Lead actor... check. Similar (but better) female actor... check. Amusement Park... check.
Not quite as good as Shaun of the Dead, but it wasn't trying to be... it was just a solid, good movie that I'll definitely watch again, and sometimes the subtle quiet ones are the ones that stick out.
Rating: 
fasho.
fasho. Premature Infatuation? - Dashboard Confessional
who: Dashboard Confessional
why: I'm not sure if I really care, but their new single "Belle of the Boulevard" is now streaming on their myspace. If you're a big fan, then you're looking forward to November 10th, when their cd 'Alter the Ending' will be in stores.
Boycottage - Twilight: New Moon (cont.)
who: Death Cab for Cutie
why: debuted their new video for Twilight: New Moon's "Meet Me on the Equinox" last night on MTV... and I like the song as long as I'm not watching the video... weird.

New Release Tuesday - October 6th
On the most anticipated day for quite some time, it was kind of easy to forget to write it all down on the intranets.
why: because these two have been on my radar since the end of last year, and they're finally out! The Fall of Troy's 'In the Unlikely Event' is completely different from what you should probably expect, especially considering it's following last year's revolutionary (at least for me) 'The Phantom on the Horizon'.
HORSE is like a loyal puppy that could never disappoint you. The more ridiculous the more undeniably entertaining. 'Desperate Living' is out today.
You absolutely must listen to both of these.

Fool for Thought - lala.com
who: lala.com
why: because we should have seen it sooner... Every day we're finding new ways to keep the internet and anything else we can as close as possible. Think of the future... True "nano" ipods, and cell phones that fit into your ear and allow you simply to think about turning them on right?..

Nah. I'll take a cell phone that can give me internet access to any song I've ever wanted, though. CDs and Vinyls are cool to have, but eventually I'm gonna run out of room. And recently, my hard drive got screwed up and I lost most of what I really cared about owning... the mp3s from the albums so I could actually listen to them.
So look. Here it is. Lala.com allows you to buy an "Online Album" of The Fall of Troy's newest album 'In the Unlikely Event' for only $1.08, OR the mp3 version for $7.49. $1 sounds good, so you buy the online version, but shit that means you have to be on the internet to listen to it? Yeah... but what if you could somehow get really good internet on your phone that would load lala for you no problem?... Yeah it's probably gonna happen.
Lawyered?
New Thread - "..."

Premature Infatuation - Vampire Weekend
who: Vampire Weekend
why: because I've somehow managed to ignore Vampire Weekend until now, when I have a song about horchata stuck in my head... Their new release 'Contra' will be released January 12th of next year.
'Horchata'
