Daily Rec: 7/4

Relient K’s album Mmhmm is arguably the band’s best work and so if you haven’t listened to it, please do.

The album was released in November of 2004 and even though it was so late in the year it still made my top 10 list. The songs are mature, catchy, and flow perfectly in their order. Some of the best tracks include “This Week The Trend”, “More Than Useless” and “Be My Escape”.

The album’s downfall? The hard title to say to other people because it’s not really a word but more of a sound.

Here is something different yet accessible. Eye Alaska has some lush, full piano sounds combined with soaring vocals which really set the mood.

I don’t think I’ve recommended Son Ambulance recently but they are in the same vain as The Shins. Their new album will be a gem for those in that scene.

First thing I’m recommending is entering our Less Than Jake contest which has some sweet prizes and good odds at winning. Second recommendation is listening to the band. It would seem that most people have heard them but if you haven’t, give them a chance even if ska isn’t your thing. Just saying.

Ace Enders and a million other people (band name) have put out a free album simply because he wanted to, because he thought he should. The acoustic rock style is done justice with his creative approach.

What’s your favorite track from the album?

Go back and listen to The New Frontiers album ‘Mending’ which came out digitally at the beginning of the year and in stores sometime in April. This is a near perfect folk/rock debut for the band and is definitely in the top 10 albums of 2008.

Have you listened to The Midway State yet? The band has sort of a Keane or The Fray feel to them, you’ll enjoy them.

looking for a new genre? The Reign of Kindo play what they call “indie jazz”. They have a new album coming out late August which should be a good album.

p.s. these are members of This Day And Age, if anyone knows or cares.

Love & Reverie play a style of rock similar to Armor For Sleep’s first album which is not the most unique but I haven’t been able to get them out of my mind. ‘The Mapping’ is a fantastic album and this band would do well under a big indie label.

I feel a bit foolish for not expecting much, but I was really impressed with Brian Bergeron and The Late Greats. The band has an acoustic style similar to that of Ryan Adams mixed with Matt Nathanson. One thing’s for sure, this won’t be the last you hear of Brian Bergeron for sure.

Please don’t miss out on Seabird. If this is the only band you check out and the only link you click on, you won’t be sorry. If you combined Coldplay with Acceptance you’d get a wierd combo but Seabird would probably be the result.

Sanctus Real’s newest album is absolutely fantastic and a huge step forward for the band. With plenty of upbeat rock as well as a softer side, the record really is a must listen.

If you ever thought electronic and singer/songwriter folk music weren’t meant for each other let Computer Vs. Banjo convince you otherwise.
