Anthony I noticed you have a Fugazi record in the background. I read about this Balkans album through your site before watching this video. After the first few tracks I was thinking "Sounds like the Strokes put in a blender with a little bit of Fugazi." Did you pick up on this as well or was I imagining it? Also I just wanted to say thank you. If it wasn't for you, I probably wouldn't have found out about this, or some other great albums. This is currently one of my favorite bands. Keep it up!
for all those inquiring about buying info, you can order via insound or the doublephantom site. Or see your local record store and if they don't have it please request it. Also for UK and Japan see pure groove!
Anthony, I'm really interested in buying this album. But I can't seem to find it anywhere. Where do you buy it? (I'm anti- iTunes). Maybe you could do a section that can tell where you can find the album.
You should definitely check out Obits, if you haven't already. They put out two albums so far, last one (Moody, Standard And Poor) was released in March (I think) of this year, and the debut in 2009. Also, Free Cal.
It's not that often you get around to review some new punk stuff, but you should check out "New Brigade" by Iceage. Messy, noisy and playful punk rock.
Too many "meh" reviews lately. I want to see a review of something you absolutely love or absolutely hate. It doesn't have to be a recent release, either.
I think if a band's sound is "influenced" by another band's sound, then half the time it may be intentional, while other times I think that it just happens to sound like that band-not every band plans to sound like someone else, but the Balkans have a good thing going, and I hope they continue to make good songs.
I really think Cal should stay in the whakcalzone, you know, straighten out his life and everything, and maybe when he turns 18, he can make the decision to come back to his loving bro Anthony, who I know misses him a lot. Or not. All I can say tho is, Fuck Cal mom.
why don't you review jack johnsons to the sea? it's older than your usual, but you didn't review it, and I'm kind of in the mood for an acoustic review :D
how long has cal been in there? FREE CAL!
