Bring Out Your Dead – Just Stay Asleep... — Detonate, 2010

Bring Out Your Dead features members of Scraps and Heart Attacks for anyone else out there that gives a hoot. I liked Scraps and Heart Attacks so I was excited hear this EP. What we have here is a metal band that plays fast and has some nice melodic picking parts and some decent early 2000's type mosh to it. ust Stay Asleep... could have came out on Ferret and Trustkill at the beginning of the millennium and no one would have a battened an eye. It's metalcore play fast and tuneful and thankfully doesn't have any of the downfalls of today's modern metalcore scene. There's no bad haircuts, no "deathcore", nothing...Just decently played hardcore with a good sense of head banging. I think I'm going to burn this to my computer and keep it around.

I get a lot of music here at SPB and, unfortunately, my memory isn’t perfect.

The Sketch
Permanent Teeth (2025)

When The Sketch opens, I find myself quickly thinking of “Got The Time” by Joe Jackson. For the most part, that comparison fades by the time the power chords kick in at 10 seconds, but I also bring it up because (at least in my mind) that’s a classic track that doesn’t get enough fanfare. No artist wants constant “sounds … Read more
