News From The Frontline...



It's a Friday the 13th weekend and there is a lot of stuff going on...

Saturday, June 14th, at 6pm, at Now That's Class, there is a hardcore show...
Resolve- St. Louis positive youth
Waster- food band
I Can't Lose- members from every Cleveland band, has a demo, get it!
show is at 6pm and costs $5. don't be a cheap fuck!

Besides that...
This is a mega recording weekend for many good Cleveland bands...
Overload
fuck, this band is great! they remind me of something that would have come from California circa 1989, but with a bit harder edge. They have four songs and are recording them this weekend! The songs rip it up! Their first show was good, but no one knew the tunes yet, so this demo is good because now there will be A+ shows to go with the A+ tunes. They practiced last night and things are tight. I'll post a song on here as soon as they record, so all you cheap fucks who won't even spend a cent to support friends can still hear a tune.

My Rulez
they are recording for a new demo, or possibly a 7", this weekend, as well. They sound like early 80's angry stuff, kind of like Negative Approach. They debuted new songs last night, and have been playing other ones at recent shows, and the stuff is great. This band is banned from Luna's in Stow because they "left onions all over the floor". Hahaha.

Mad Minds
Honestly, half of their demo bores me to tears, but they seemed to have learned from their mistakes, since their new songs are much faster and possibly even harder. Always better live than recorded, hopefully their upcoming 7" will match the live show. Too bad the record won't have jokes about disgusting fat girls, like the live show does. They need to play more shows with the real line up or Dan will continue to be pissed.

So...
unless you are a scum who wastes your weekends drinking your life away, you should hit up that show, the inevitable eating hangouts/restaurant destructions. Hey, if you are cool enough, you might even be allowed to do back ups at a recording session! Sessiooooooooooooons!

There is lots of cool stuff coming up too...
Right Idea
They have a classic 12" about to be released on React! Records. Hurry up and get that out! Best band around right now. They are going to California next weekend for three shows. One show is with Betrayed. That is another great band. Anyways, they are also on two comps that are coming out sometime in the next few months. They also have new shirt designs.

There is one song on the upcoming Mad Minds 7" I GUARANTEE you'll hate, but besides that I see you digging it... potentially digging it more than dig can dig, but that's just speculation at this point.

Stoked on this blog, looking forward to more in the future.
