Expire

Expire has put together 4 songs of straightforward, heavy-hitting hardcore. Members of Expire live in different parts of the midwest and the band seems to draw influences from the east and west coasts, finding a happy medium with heavy grooves reminiscent of the NYHC style and fast parts that are worthy of a good ‘ole California circle pit.

Track List:
1. Sleep Lost
2. First Fall
3. Grip
4. Focus
Download it here, and if you like it, pre-order that shit.
There are three colors of vinyl available on a first come, first serve basis.

Yellowcard

In all honesty, I was never a huge fan of Yellowcard. They had some catchy tunes, and the music wasn't bad, it was just never anything I found myself constantly wanting to listen to.

They've come out with a new album called When You're Through Thinking, Say Yes. I've yet to listen to it myself, but I've heard great reviews. Decide for yourself.

Tracklist:
01. The Sound of You And Me
02. For You, And Your Denial
03. With You Around
04. Hang You Up
05. Life of Leaving Home
06. Hide
07. Soundtrack
08. Sing for Me
09. See Me Smiling
10. Be the Young
