Museum Mouth "I am the Idiot of the Jungle"


Museum Mouth are a pretty stripped down folk-ish band. Like Ghost Mice with an electric guitar.

It's pretty fun, but not the kind of thing I would listen to a lot...

It's an old EP that they recorded themselves so their new stuff may sound better to the more discerning among us...

Not posting....

So I haven't been posting on here very often, but it's to be expected. I am often busy and don't have the time to intentionally seek out something and listen to it while not doing something else that takes up my concentration (like homework)...

Anyway, in case you aren't already familiar Punknews.org does a lot of album streams that I've been listening to lately. Check that here

A couple of the bands I have heard recently that I like:
The Riot Before

Vultures United (Really excited about this band! Actually, I may buy their LP tonight)

Sweet Empire

These are streams of their songs you should check!

Brothers From Another - Too Soon EP

Brothers from Another are a Seattle hip hop duo. It's pretty normal for Seattle hip hop: creative, good beats, interesting lyrics, not gangster.

I really dig this, I kind of saw them a few months ago...enjoyed it!

Tin Tree Factory - Admire the Mess

Tin Tree Factory are a folk band from Seattle.

I saw them a few years ago in a backyard with Ghost Mice and Heathers, an incredible Irish band!

I started volunteering at the Vera Project and there was someone there that I vaguely recognized. Turns out it was Marc, who does percussion and key stuff for them. He was telling me the other day that they had a new album up for download!

It's generally slower, the lyrics are heartfelt and often political.

No Kings - Steering Underwater


This band is from Walla Walla, Washington. It's not worth knowing about if you didn't know already. To be honest I'm not surprised that a band came from their, but I am surprised that it's good!

This is fast-ish hardcore, not disimilar to Give up the Ghost (American Nightmare for the "purists") or Cursed.
