Lumber Lung - Lumber Lung

 http://www.mediafire.com/?x4437wpzjwtdfax

Lumber Lung is a punk band from Santa Barbara. They are kind of like if RVIVR swapped out some (but not all) of their pop-punk sound for some melodic hardcore. Super awesome!

damezumari - 2004-2007

http://www.mediafire.com/?b75l53w7ia3u7t5

Damezumari is a band from Tulsa, OK. They are sort of a screamo/emo blend in the vein of The Saddest Landscape, but mathier, i think. I am enjoying this quite a bit this evening.
This collection is apparently 33 songs recorded from 2004-2007, which appear to be the same ones provided for free on the band's website here.

I picked this album cover (even though it is a split) because it looks the coolest

The Republic of Wolves - His Old Branches

http://www.mediafire.com/?b97x0ksx32u2nfc

The Republic of Wolves is a band from Long Island, NY. They have a real neat atmospheric indie-folk type of sound. Kind of like Phosphorescent, if you are familiar with Phosphorescent.

Dowsing - All I Could Find Was You

http://www.mediafire.com/?x2zrdurw775whcc

Indie/emo band from Chicago. Another awesome band contributing to the resurgence of midwest-style emo. And again I must add if the label 'emo' is putting people off due to it's unfortunate usage in the early 00's, please reconsider. This is an incredibly good genre, by and large.

Ravachol - Great Moments in the Void

http://www.mediafire.com/?6pxrpi76yl1urz9

Ravachol is a band from somewhere in the UK. They have an interesting screamo-vocals-over-clean-guitars type sound with lady vocals. They also seem to take influence from political-type hardcore music some.
It is quite delightful, i enjoy this.

Midwest Pen Pals - Inside Jokes

http://www.mediafire.com/?p6pjka89i35cy3t

Midwest Pen Pals was a band from Indiana. They released only one album and were around only in 2009 as far as i can discern. A good example of 90's midwest emo. Twinkles galore. I've listened to this album many times today, i think it is rather enjoyable.

SUFFER MY BRIEF AND UNINTERESTING WRITING

now that i have streaming previews i barely have to be descriptive at all. it is not my strong suit

We Are Trees is James Nee and Josiah Schlater. I seriously cannot find out very much about this band, but they have a pretty rad lo-fi pop type of sound going on. Some almost shoegazey influences perhaps?

Paul Newman and the Ride Home - The Importance of Being Earnest Hemingway (2011)

http://www.mediafire.com/?yt8hnk53w8a4fc3

Bandmember Jacob sent me this via email. Paul Newman and the Ride Home is a 5-piece band from Baltimore. This album is like folky-pop-punk. Reminiscent of Fake Problems, except more pop-punk than that. It is a pretty awesome album!
