> new music from relient k, switchfoot, lovedrug & lifesavers underground

There is a whole bunch of new music being worked on…..

Relient K working on Ep & B-sides album

We’re doing well. Amongst other things.
One of which is recording. We are not recording the next full length Relient K record, however we have tracked thirteen new original songs that will be going on an EP. We’re calling it The Nashville Tennis EP. We know its a lot of songs for an EP. Whatever.
As well as the EP, we’re going to put out a B sides record. I’m not totally sure of how many tracks we’re going to put on there, but we’re aiming for 20+ for sure. As of right now, we’re calling this The Bird And The Bee Sides.
The two albums together are going form a new release also called The Bird And The Bee Sides. We’re hoping to release it on the earlier side of the summer.

> u2 – listen to “wave of sorrow” (birdland)

U2′s  The Joshua Tree Remastered has been released, and I am glad we have the long Thanksgiving weekend to check it out. With any collection it’s hard to know where to start. I did listen to disc 1 on my noise canceling headphones and the re-mastering sounds pretty good, but the proof will come when I can crank up the stereo. I did sample the DVD disc and the concert from Paris. It’s funny to see Bono and the Edge with their long hair!

I did have to get to the bonus music disc and hear the finished version of “Wave of Sorrow”(Birdland). Of all the songs on the bonus disc “Wave of Sorrow” is the essential one. Listen to it here:
