Teen Suicide (The Band)

Teen Suicide, an emo band from Maryland, is like no other band I can think of. They’re like a lo-fi experimental emo band or something. I feel like that doesn’t do them justice. You should really just listen to them. They’re clearly outta my league review-wise.

Their first release of 2012, DC snuff film, came out in February. I downloaded it from their bandcamp around that time and have loved it ever since. BUT I went to their bandcamp again today and realized they might be superheros or robots because in the past year they’ve put out three more releases. That’s two LP’s and two EP’s over the course of ten months. Their second LP i will be my own hell because there is a devil inside my body  I am now discovering is even better than DC snuff.

If you read this and don’t click one of the above links you will for real break my heart.

Do you think it’s too late to buy these albums for everyone I know for Christmas?

COLLEEN GREEN

Fall tour announced! And she’s covering all the bases so no excuses. Her first full album, Milo Goes to Compton (a spin on the Descendents’ Milo Goes to College) was released last February by Art Fag Recordings and includes covers of I Will Follow Him originally by Little Peggy March in 1963, the Descendents’ Good Good Things (one of my old favorites) and the Ramones’ I Wanna Be Sedated (sorta, it’s called I Wanna Be Degraded and it’s fuzzy and really only a half cover.) The rest of the songs are lo-fi garage pop about her weed and her crushes. The vocals are sweet and distant and the beats are a blast. Mostly she’s just so coool. She’s the indie grrrl of yr dreams if there ever was one. She even draws comics!!! <3

I can’t wait to see her live and hear tracks from Milo, wacky covers, and hopefully some EP B-sides (Y Do You Call Me especially!)
