DOWNLOADS: Facel Vega / Harbour - Split

It has recently occurred to me that I haven't posted any downloads of any South Wales bands... Ludicrous! This stops NOW. The first South Wales record to get the "treatment" is the Facel Vega and Harbour split. With arguably two of the best South Wales bands sharing a piece of wax, this is arguably the best split record to come out of South Wales. Facel Vega play urgent and noisey revolution summer style emo, and feature members of the late and great State Run and Twisted from Leeds (who I have posted about before). Harbour play stupidly fast, and stupidly tight melodic hardcore for fans of (being lazy here as always) Kid Dynamite and leatherface. This record was released about 2 years ago via State Run records, time flies! Download the record, and if you like it be sure to buy a copy from the State Run Records webstore!

DOWNLOADS: Hail Brethren - S/T

A few weeks ago, while in Manchester, my band were lucky enough to play with Well Wisher (Thanks Rosie!). Well Wisher are a pretty new emo band, forming from the ashes of the great and short lived Hail Brethren. Well Wisher were great, but while watching them, deep in the back of my head I was thinking about how great Hail Brethren were. I know, cool story bro. Hail Brethren played a style of emo that's been said to sound like "Forever and Counting" era Hot Water Music. I guess that isn't too bad a comparison, if a lazy one at that. Unfortunately, Hail Brethren broke up not long after this record was released, a crying shame to those of us who never got to see them live. Download this record from the link below, which is hosted on the ROIDH website, so I figure it's ok for me to post it here too. Regardless, if you like the sound of this please do pick up a copy from the label! Dead cheap too! Oh, and be sure to buy the Well Wisher 7" when it eventually comes out too. I've heard it, and it's brilliant!

DOWNLOAD: Her Breath On Glass - What We Left Behind

What's that? You've already heard Her Breath On Glass? Good for you! For those not in the know, Her Breath On Glass feature "emo god" Andy Maddox, of The Saddest Landscape fame. The sounds of Her Breath On Glass aren't too distant from The Saddest Landscape and they are about as Emo as you could possibly get. "What We Left Behind" is a record of intense and powerful emo goodness that grabs you by the throat. Desperate Vocals full of despair, noisy and abrasive drums and guitars, but still at the same time they manage to maintain melody. Below is a link to the record. If you like it I strongly recommend you buy it from here (and buy other stuff too)!
