The One Up Downstairs

"Before American Football, bassist Mike Kinsella (Cap’n Jazz, Joan of Arc) and drummer Steve Lamos played in The One Up Downstairs with Dave and Alan Johnson (both of Very Secretary). The One Up Downstairs recorded a 3-song 7” which was to be released by Polyvinyl. Prior to the single’s release, however, the group disbanded and despite having recorded material, the single was never released."

Penpal

“Penpal is a project of Steve and Brett (former members of Marquette, both guitarists), which started in 2008. Began working together on this, but Steve moved to Chicago in 3 hours from where Brett lives, so they continued working on the project at a distance, by sending their creations to each other over the Internet. The thing was so, one started with an idea, the other finished, and vice versa."

Birthmark

This is Nate Kinsella's first solo-album and i must say it's pretty amazing. It beats anything tim has done the past couple of years and is different from what i expected. He uses a wide range of weird instruments and my favorite song has to be "Escape Routes Merge and Pool". Please go out and buy this.

Options

"Options is the constantly evolving musical project of Seth Engel. After several false starts with his former band, Seth realized he needed a new outlet for his creation. Thus, Options was born."I'd skip past the album Fractures and listen to everything else. He has a similar sound to Owen guitar wise and I listen to him while I'm working out (Sadly that is true).

Paul Baribeau

I'm tired, depressed and it's two in the fucking morning and i'm going to end up waking up at half one in the afternoon but i've found some music that's cheering me up so i thought i'd share.

Paul Baribeau - Grand Ledge
Paul Baribeau - Self Titled

ape up!

Half one in the morning, best time to give away music ? anyway this is ape up! and it's made up of ex-members of Algernon Cadwallader (a band i don't care much for) and The Opportunist. The story behind one of these songs is pretty epic. The band are really good friends with Akon and he came up with this idea to feature in one of the bands songs ("Rudich Ranch") ripping up the vocals at the end*.

*I can't verify it but still, have faith.

Cap'n Jazz

The best emo band ever in my opinion. Not Tim Kinsella's best work but it's in my top five. Analphabetapolothology is a collection of all their work in the short lifespan of the band.

Victor Villarreal

Victor Villarreal has went all Jesus-like on us with "Alive" his solo album. The album is mainly just him and his guitar singing about jesus and crap like that. I don't really enjoy the subject (I'm an atheist) but still i think this is a really great album and deserves at least one listen.

Tubelord

Tubelord are a three piece from KINGSTANNN, London. They play their own brand of post-hardcore math and are starting to build a pretty big following (and they do deserve it).
