Wow. It was one year ago today that I squeezed out my first post as The Burning Ear and 411 posts later and here we are. It's amazing how fast time flies and how much great music can come out in a year. Birthday's are a time for celebration and gift giving so I've wrangled together a little something for all of you to celebrate with. Over the past 12 months a number of great tracks have found a happy home in my stereo but for whatever reason or another I never covered them on the site. As a 1st [...]
Gosh, is that another month gone already? Looks like it has, so it's time for another Music Alliance Pact, where the world's blogs come to The Daily Growl, courtesy of the hard work of MAP organiser Jason Pop Cop. This month he's outdone himself by providing HTML script to make ...
Here's March's edition of the Music Alliance Pact. For those of you who don't know about MAP, it's a collection of music blogs from around the world who band together once a month to shed light on up-and-comers from their home countries. It's sort of like the WTO without the human rights violations. This month we've welcomed French blog SoundNation and Denmark's All Scandinavian to bring the total participation to 24 nations. Our contribution this month includes a beautiful, budding track from Florida-based Viernes . Nathaniel's decree [...]
This month's instalment of the Music Alliance Pact is out & about - there are now 24 participating blogs from around the world; every month you get one track from an artist or band in each country. It's a great way to discover something new - read the March list at The Pop Cop , who came up with the idea. As always, there's some splendid finds to be made; and not to suggest that the others aren't well worth a listen - these jumped out & grabbed my attention. [...]

Hoy es 15 de Marzo y llegamos al sexto episodio de MAP, que fascinante cierto?, bueno este mes mis seleccionados han sido Resplandor, una banda imprescindible y que regreso el año pasado con "Pleamar" quizas su mejor logro hasta ahora, el camino que esta banda tiene fuera de este país es increible y facilmente podría ser la banda que mejor ha sabido vender su estilo, ese dream-pop que ni en sueños sonaria por aquí. Este mes no podre traducir las descripciones, pues porque hoy es domingo!. Disfruta... [...]

Once a month the Music Alliance Pact brings bloggers around the globe together and, by heck, that time is now. The number of countries in MAP stands at a record high of 24 after we tempted ambassadors from Denmark ( All Scandinavian ) and France ( SoundNation ) to join our gang with the promise of riches beyond their wildest dreams. As Scotland's representatives, The Pop Cop has something very special from We Were [...]
Bands mit ganz vielen ! im Namen machen in der Regel hektische Rockmusik. Dies ist bei Five!Fast!!Hits!!! tendenziell zwar auch so, allerdings wird hier doch erfreulicher Weise auch auf die Melodie geachtet. Das Quartett aus München hat letztes Jahr sein Debütalbum herausgebracht und war u.a. mit The Rifles und The View auf Tour. Das passt vom Sound her auf jeden Fall, denn die Bayern klingen sehr britisch. Nun gibt es eine neue Single - «Keep my name out your mouth» -, und diese verschenken sie zusammen mit der B-Seite «One man riot» . [...]
