Albums Friends Should Hear

2009 started of with three great albums:

Animal Collective: "Merriweather Post Pavillion"

A.C. Newman: "Get Guilty"

Andrew Bird: "Noble Beast"

I will not bore you with my opinion or go into detail. Just find these and listen.

Things Happen

I am not sure how many people read this stuff, but I want to apologize to any musicians that I have offended by sharing music. I wanted to use this blog as a way to share what I was doing musically and what other musicians were creating that I thought was noteworthy. So now, I am just going to give an opinion on new and old stuff as well as all the videos and the like that are legal to post.

This is an improvisation by the band I played in back home and friend CJ boyd that was recorded by a tape recorder in 2007. It was actually the night of the release of my first album. The lineup that night was Cody Campbell, Elliott Mortensen, and Joshua Fulkerson.

ZCFOS- "Gobblin' Death"

http://www.sendspace.com/file/dznklm

This is a thrasher that we recorded when we were just starting out. We recorded eight songs with Chris Owens of the Lords back in April of 2008. This is the only one that remains. We plan to put it out as a seven inch sometime.

Freightliner- "Old News EP"

This is some old stuff that I had on my recorder. I decided that these were worth salvaging into a free EP that I could give to everyone.

ZCFOS in someone's basement.



This is one of the bands I play in. The sound quality isn't fantastic, but you get the idea. WE ARE LOUD. This video contains the first two songs off of our first album, "PRIMO" that we recorded in November. They are 1) Primo Messiah 2) Snow Wolf.
