Off With Their Heads have been around for over a decade, but they’ve held out long enough to be recognised as one of the best pure punk bands of today. They’ve undergone many lineup changes – notable ex-members include Paddy Costello of Dillinger Four and Mikey Erg of The Ergs and House Boat – but rather than being a sign of dysfunction, lead singer and guitarist Ryan Young says the number of members [...]

After being in the sun all day at a super last minute Phillies game (don't care about the Phillies, hoped to see Tampa Bay lose), I headed out to Philly's Barbary to catch one hell of a pop-punk lineup. I would have went for The Copyrights or Mean Jeans alone, but having them both on the same set? Fuck yeah. House Boat: I came in about halfway through these NJ guys set. I caught House Boat at the Asbury Lanes about two years ago, and [...]
A few nights ago I was driving around downtown Chicago with Ryan (he was actually driving though) and he said something like, "Have you heard the Gooningtons?" I hadn't, so he proceed to play Welcome To Goonington Beach! and blow my mind. He also explained verbally what's documented on this pop punk message board thread . To sum it all up, Ryan recorded 8 Ramones-core songs (written over the span of a few days) in a single afternoon and it's incredible. I have no idea how I missed this (or why no one told me) last year, [...]

Basil and I will be spending the holiday weekend on a houseboat! Endless hours in the sun, in the water, spending time with close friends wouldn’t be complete with some muzik!

On Friday night, I took the 1 and a half hour drive out to punk rock bowling alley Asbury Lanes in my home state of New Jersey to catch one of my favorite sing a long bands, Off With Their Heads.Cloak/DaggerI arrived in the middle of these guys set, but the very little that I did see made me interested in checking out more by these Richmond hardcore dudes. Cloak/Dagger didn't fuck around. Just

![Sleep Whale – Houseboat [Mix Tape Monday]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2193389_lg.jpg)
Came across this album released in November a few weeks back from North Texas' own Sleep Whale and I have to say I am really loving this album so far. Just a great, unique, sweeping sound mixing simple instrumentation into epic soundscapes with lo-fi dreamy vocals. It all comes together extremely well on this album and this is easily one of my favorite releases of the year. The songs wander and careen through cavernous sounding effects and instruments where it sounds very intimate and distant at the same time. There are strings, there are very electronic [...]

Discovering new bands that I enjoy is one of my favorite pleasures in life. What's even more awesome is when one finds you when you aren't even looking. I've got the folks over at Western Vinyl to thank for introducing me to Sleep Whale , as the label recently sent me a copy of their new album. A lot of the stuff I get sent ends up being pretty mediocre, and most of it doesn't get posted about on this site, but I really love this band's new album Houseboat . The album is a mix [...]
Sleep Whale - Make Another Picture I only recently became familiar with Sleep Whale, although it seems they’ve built up some noise over the past few... (Visit my blog for more!)
Li avevamo conosciuti con l'Ep di esordio, "Little Brite". All'epoca erano in due, Joel North e Bruce Blay, in bilico fra architetture alla Papa M e Bert Jansch. A collaborare con loro parenti ed amici. Due di questi, Paul North e Spencer Stephenson, sono entrati ufficialmente nel gruppo. Per inerzia gli Sleep Whale oggi sono [...]

November is going to be a busty month for our local label Western Vinyl . They already have plans to release the much anticipated Ola Podrida record on the 3rd, but now we have news that they plan to also release the new album by Denton duo, Sleep Whale . According to release info, Houseboat is slated to hit our streets on the 10th. Take a sample. Download: Sleep Whale - Cotton Curls [MP3]
