So it's come to my attention yet again that Anberlin(not that we don't hype them enough around here) simply write perfect rock songs - and singer Stephen Christian is getting together with some of his Florida homeys to do Anchor & Braille, a sombre, sweet side project. Others included in the cast are Copeland mastermind Aaron Marsh and drummer Jon Bucklew, manager extraordinaire Kyle Griner(Denison Marrs, among others) and a few other cats. Give it a listen over here. Note who their first Myspace friend is - yes, indeed, if I'm not mistaken, that's Underoath drummer Aaron Gillespie. What a guy.
Today, because I'm a lover of hardcore music and lifestyle(a lof of its facets, anyway), and because I've heard the name bandied about literally for years, I bought Strife's In This Defiance album today. 1997, Victory Records. I feel like I should be wearing an Earth Crisis hoodie right now.
Does it count that I'm blasting Blacklisted as loud as humanly possible?
I'm so hardcore.
