90s-era post-hardcore/emo outfit Sense Field has confirmed the long-standing rumours that they would be reuniting for the upcoming celebration of Revelation Records ' 25th Anniversary. The show is a one-time reunion set for June 7th at The Glass House in Pomona, CA. The band is promising a set assembled from their three 90s-era Revelation Records albums - 1994's Sense Field , 1994's Killed For Less , and 1996's Building . After their time on Revelation, they signed to Warner Music Group and released [...]

Jon Bunch of Sense Field , Reason to Believe and (briefly) Further Seems Forever recently discussed why he started singing ("The reason why I sang was because I didn't have an instrument."), breaking away from his early "scene" days, ("I didn't want to play shows where it was predominately a gang fight.") and the inspiration behind his lyrics: I'm singing to the broken people because I'm a broken person. I'm right there with all the rest of the [...]
New End Original – Better Than This (live 2001) Den heutigen Song gibt es nicht bei Youtube, aber bei last.fm . Vor ziemlich genau 98 Jahren, so schreiben es die Geschichtsbücher und Wikipedia, war der Tag, an dem in den Wogen des eisigen Nordatlantiks über 1.500 Menschen starben. Ein Eisberg war der RMS Titanic zum Verhängnis geworden. Ganz so dramatisch sah der Abgang von New End Original achtzig Jahre später zwar nicht aus, doch auch er hinterließ ein großes Loch das – wenn es schon nicht wieder gefüllt wird [...]
Do you remember the first time you heard that incredible song? You played it to the point of redundancy and still managed to enjoy it every subsequent listen. Then you got older and your ears more selective, moving onward to find more great songs. After time and upon nearly forgetting the track all-together, you hear it once more and go through an entire renaissance with your cherished tune all over again.

Image From Here I don't know what it is but I need something. Random thoughts crowd my overloaded mind and I can't sort through it all. There is definitely something lacking in my existence on this earth. Maybe, it's the lack of having someone to hold and love? Maybe, it's just the lack of having a real life to live? But, all I know is that I need something to help me through. Something to believe in to fill the void in my soul. And, I'm not talking about material things [...]

Thanks to Elisabeth Kubler-Ross , we all have the ability to pinpoint exactly how far along we are in the grieving process when we experience a catastrophic loss in our life. With today being Friday the 13th, and also the Day Before Valentine's Day, we're going to examine the 5 Stages of Break-Up Grief through the majesty of song. We'll be in better moods tomorrow considering we both have significant others, but if you have been made recently single, this post is for you. Denial Frou Frou - Hear [...]

I just wanted to post some great old 90's indie rock songs ... (look at me cleverly avoid the E word) lincoln - benchwarmer mineral - gloria sensefield - overstand

I was sick at home with the flu yesterday, and between sleeping and generally feeling sick I came up with some illness-related tracks for your entertainment. I hope these can help you through the inevitable day when you too find yourself with the sick-at-home blues. Fever (Starsailor) It all starts out with a fever. Not necessarily on the freeway (or in the morning, in the morning). And I guess, to be perfectly honest, it doesn't always start out with a fever either. Sometimes it starts out [...]

"Who is this '.hopesfall.' you speak of?" IGN has a good list of indie rock releases that should have gotten more recognition when they were first released. Here's what they said about my favorite of the list, Hum's Downward Is Heavenward : Despite all of the guitar histrionics, Hum always had gorgeous melodies and top-shelf songwriting just beneath the surface. A song like "If You Are to Bloom" foreshadowed the amplifier crunch and honeyed vocal line recipe current acts like Brand New and [...]

Sometimes 12 songs just isn't enough. Sometimes, you're just listening along to a new cd, and that last song ends, but it doesn't end . Or sometimes it'll just be an extra track thrown your way, as a very special thank you for buying the cd. You'd better buckle up, because you've entered the realm of bonus tracks, baby. I (Brock) will go first this time around. The Damnwells - Air Stereo [...]
Thirty years ago today that simple phrase debuted on the big screen and with it created it's own mythology. Star Wars came out on this May Day back in 1977. The movie changed a lot of things in the movie business, inspired countless children, and birthed the Herd of Star Wars Nerds Triumph the Insult Comic Dog comedy sketch. I saw the movie about 11 times when i was seven years old. This weekend I will show the movie to my four year old son. Hopefully when the movie ends he has [...]
