Oven Fresh New Music Tuesday!!! (7/21/09)

It's time once again to see all of the new music coming out this week. I didn't have much expectation going into this week but let's take a look at some good stuff this week had to offer.


Albums:
Civil Twilight - Civil Twilight - I'm only recommending this album because I really like the song "Next to Me". The rest of the album is pretty damn boring. But check out that track because it's a very solid track.

RX Bandits - Mandala - This album has a very unique sound to it. I guess I would consider it to be Ska-punk. I'm not sure how they classify this kind of music but I find myself enjoying it. If you want to hear something a little different then check out this album

Dope Stars Inc. - 21st Century Slave - Sounds like an electronic Hard Rock band. Very fun to listen to and I love the sound. You might be seeing them on my yearly countdown very soon. Check out the songs "21st Century slave" and "It's Today".

Modern Day Escape - House of Rats - This band has a little hint of emo to them. They mix some screaming with a little bit of punk sound to it. I really like the track "Corpse Masquerade"

Set Your Goals - This Will be The Death of Us - A Good punk Band. They have pretty catchy songs. Check out the track "Look Closer"

Lovehammers - Heavy Crown - I recommended the song "Guns" on an earlier post. This band has a very good Rock sound to them. I still think Guns is the best track but the release of this album provided some very good tracks like "Your Time, My Time" and "Neverfall"

Our Lady Peace - Burn Burn - I Feel like I haven't hear from this band in many many years. This is a pretty decent album. It's not as good as their older stuff but I really like the track "All YOu did was save my LIfe"


Singles:
Five For Fighting - Chances - If You are a fan of this band then you should be a fan of this song because it sounds just like a typical FVF song. It's not quite as catchy as their big hits but it's still catchy and worth a listen.

Drowning Pool - Shame - I can honestly say that I'm starting to like this band better with their new lead singer. I love his voice. This is a good hard rock song and it kinda sounds a little bit like old school Alice in Chains

Vertical Horizon - Save Me From Myself - Another old school band. I like this song but it is nothing amazing. If you want to check it out go ahead but it isn't going to blow you away or anything.

Five Finger Death Punch - Hard To See - Usually I don't like a lot of songs by this band. They always seem like they have potential to be good but come up a little short. Again, this is a good song so I'm recommending it but I'm just waiting for them to come out with a great song some time.


So that's it for this week. We saw the return of some old school bands like Vertical Horizon and Our Lady Peace. The Lovehammers new albums sounds great and I'm really liking the new Drowning Pool. Check back next week for more new music and keep checking back as i continually update my songs to listen to and my top song charts.
