Tuesday's Playlist

As I'm sitting here in my government job at the library in my home town, I am listening to a crazy lady reading stories to kids. It's this whole reading program thing and if you were here and hungover you would rather have the jaws of life squeeze your head than listen to this lady. She's wearing a frog hat and showing more enthusiasm than a gay pride parade.

After listening to this I am practically forced to put my headphones in and the enthusiasm beaming off this lady got me to think about the enthusiastic Hardcore music. I'm talking about electronicore. Yes it's a word. Bands like

Abandon All Ships

(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Lg2wiyk40E) and

Attack Attack!

(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFuUAeiSN4M)

These bands have carved their own style of music and listening to it makes me more enthusiastic. Sure Attack Attack is prone to tune to Drop A but the techno breaks in this song make me weak at the knees. Today it's this kind of music that gives me a feeling and shivers down my spine and music should always do that. Always. PERIOD!

Being keys and clean vocals in my band i have a certain respect for these guys. Especially Caleb Schomo from Attack Attack. This guy has learned to combine the 2 styles almost seamlessly and for that, I thank you.

One more song i would like to talk about is the new The word Alive song

The Hounds of Anubis

(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0OR1rspGSE)

This is an epic of music in which i have no idea how they pulled this 4 minutes of insanity off. Great Tune.

That'a all for now,

Noah
