Come and Live records is now up and running!


They have their website up, and a free 16 song sampler. Go check it out and get involved.

Thrice - Beggars


Thrice - Beggar

If you own Thrice’s four EP set The Alchemy Index, and Dustin Kensrue two solo albums, then you know what you are in for. Take all five of those albums smash them together and you get this amazing album. Unfortunately, someone leaked this album way too early so there has been a rush to get the digital copy out. There will be a physical deluxe copy coming later this month. This is by far my favorite Thrice record. I loved Vhessiu, and the EP’s, but this one blew me away just in the advancement in song structure and sound. Dustin’s voice is perfect on this album (don’t expect a lot of screaming), and the musicianship is phenomenal. You will hear so many things sneaked into each song such as jazz rifts and electronic beats. This is in the top ten ‘09 releases for me. The flow of this record is just what you want from an album. Buy it, and recommend it.

So Long Forgotten - Things we can see and Things we cannot


So Long Forgotten - Things we can see and things we cannot

These guys are part of the Come and Live roster and sound great. They do have strong similarities to As Cities Burns last two albums and a little mewithoutyou. The lyrics are open and honest, and just feel like your chilling in a living room as their lead singer pours his heart out right in front of you. The music has its heavy moments then goes right back to some clean guitar to settle things for just a bit, then right back in your grill. It has take me several spins to reach my true appreciation for this album, but has earned its spot in a heavy rotation of one of my playlist. You can purchase this album on Noise Trade, which is a great resource for free music, or by donation.

Sleeping Giant - Sons of Thunder


Sleeping Giant - Sons of Thunder

Don’t let the nine tracks fool you. This album is 41 minutes long. This thunderous album definitely covers more musical endeavors than their last record “Dread Champions of Last Days”. It took me several listens to absorb it. This record is heavy, somber, challenging and moving. I like it better than their first. I also like how his vocals are not just screaming, there is also singing, and much better gang vocals. His singing is not trained, but I like it because it feels passionate and personal. There is a surprise vocal by Ryan Clark from Demon Hunter. Each song is different than the last in vocals, music, and power. I feel this is Facedown Records best release this year. Hardcore fans this is a heavy worshipful album, and you need to give it a chance. You will feel challenged to stand with your brothers and sisters in Christ.
