BECOMING THE ARCHETYPE!

"The Physics of Fire"-the new album from Becoming the Archetype.I have to say that I cannot wait to pick this up on may 8th. Admit it folks. Metal is becoming pretty bland and saturated with copy-cats. To me, these guys give metal a bit of freshness. It's no secret that ALOT of people are now downloading legally and illegally. I am for sure one of those people.(Legally of course) But this album will definately be bought and will be BLASTED the whole way home. Make your way over to their MYSPACE to hear most of the new songs. Watch em play Ex Nihilo live:

Tapes 'N Tapes

I really recommend you checking out the Minnesota band-Tapes 'N Tapes-If you haven't done so already. You can sample a few songs over at their MYSPACE page. I recently was made aware that they are one of the bands on the new 2Ksports MLB 2K7 baseball game for Xbox 360.
Check out this video of the boys strolling through the streets of Paris singing "Insistor".

Listen to and watch one of the best bands ever:
(in my little humble opinion of course!)

Streetcorner Metalcore!

Haha, check out this video of a Bristol, Philadelphia kid who hopes to be -um- discovered I guess? He screams metalcore songs everyday in front of his house.
Funny Stuff.
