This week marks the release of Emery‘s new album, I’m Only A Man. I’ve always been a fan of what this band has to offer. Be sure to check out their new album streaming here.
For fans of Anberlin & Mae.

We The Kings new album is also set for release this week. You’ve heard me rant on the band for a while now and its finally your chance to fully check them out. Take a listen to their single here, and pre-order their album on iTunes (Plus DRM Free) for only $5.99.
For fans of Boys Like Girls & Cartel

I would also suggest checking out The Quick And The Dead‘s new album this week. Their upbeat rock is sure to please many ears. Pick up the album for cheap at these places, Indie Vision Music, Smart Punk, InterPunk.
For fans of Spitalfield & The Wedding.

All I can say is… Foo Fighters. Their latest album, Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace is phenomenal! Also a huge congratulations to the one and only Brett Favre for breaking the record for career touchdown passes!!!
