Well, this is awkward. (guess who finally decided to show) 3/30/14

        Well, how do I start this? It has been over a year since I've posted on this. For the very few and far between that have ever seen this page, I'd like to personally apologize for abandoning you. I'm also aware that before this year (and a quarter) hiatus happened I abandoned for about six months. When Carl and I started this blog we were freshman in high school who were bored being only able to share (good) music with ourselves. As time moved on Carl went to another school and motivation dwindled as far as the blog goes. As I sit here now, I am a sleep deprived, semi- insomniac, junior in high school that would like to go to college to hopefully make something like music journalism my job one day.
        As this pat year (and a quarter!) has gone by, I feel like I have grown as a person, musically, intellectually, and also as a writer. So, I'm asking for forgiveness from anyone that has ever looked at this joke of a blog in the past, anyone who has seen the date on the last post and thought poorly of me. With this forgiveness I hope to revive this now long dead publication, and not just for a few months, well, at least, that's the plan.
        I plan on writing on here as constantly as I possibly can. Bringing you reviews, lists, and new music from the underground music world. I'm not promising anything with a specific schedule, last time that was the formula I followed and look where that got me. This blog will be for music of my liking, and (dependent of the review) sometimes disliking. I don't plan on posting any news stories unless they are a magnitude of which I cannot ignore. If you come to read this blog plan on seeing written (meaning actually thought out) reviews of new albums, lists of music stuff just for the hell of it, and new music I find and enjoy while surfing the inter-web deep into yet another sleepless night.
        As of right now, I'm not sure if Carl will be able to return to the blogosphere. I will be in touch with him and will ask him to return to the site. As of right now, this bored, delusional, sleep-deprived music geek will be leading the way. I hope, that this revival will bring new fans to the blog and recapture those who I left behind. I hope especially, whether you are new to this blog, and this post really has no personal value to you, or you are a fan of the past, you will join me as I try to push you to new music, pull you away from bad music, and shove you towards the music that I love.

Daily Squeeze 10/5/12: JP Haynie

Hello Squeezelets, how has your day been? Today the Daily Squeeze comes from local Utah act JP Haynie. I found JP while searching through bandcamp for new music and stumbled upon his fantastic 2012 LP "The Sand". Only after hearing the album did I discover that he was a local, and I decided to purchase this LP on vinyl. Whether or not you order the LP doesn't really matter, what matters is that this has to be one of my favorite albums of the year and when you guys listen to it you will think the same. JP uses an incredible folk sound along with beautiful lyrics (mostly lyrics that are very influenced by the beautiful landscape of Utah) to win over not only your ears but your heart. Please go and give this LP a listen or two, it is very worth the listen and if you like it enough you can buy it digitally for 7 bucks and if you really love it (like I did) you can buy the multicolor vinyl pressing with a beautiful 24 pg. lyric book.

Tattoo - Peace DAILY SQUEEZE

Hi fellow squeegees.
Sorry for the long time no see. Trust me, you will be seeing a lot more posts with "-Carl" at the bottom from now on. I have been busy transitioning to a new school as well as brainstorming new ideas for the blog. On top of that, Evan and I have been working on a "project." That's all I can disclose for now, as it is still in the works. You'll  be hearing more about that in the coming weeks ahead. Now to the post.

Today's Daily Squeeze is more of a micro-review of the new track by the "post-punk" garage rock ensemble   Peace. Their new track "Tattoo" is an insight into the almost (or maybe already?) completed LP entitled The World is Too Much With Us planned to drop quite soon. The track itself is a jambalaya of heavily reverbed vocals piled high amongst complex, yet very catchy guitar riffs that almost have a middle eastern feel. I love the overall groove of the track and see Peace becoming innovators in their genre with their future LP. Check them out with this link to the MP3. http://suicidesqueeze.net/stream/peace/Peace_Tattoo.mp3

Have a wonderful day and see you tomorrow!!

The Biggest Surprise/ News in New Music This Year. GY!BE Has A New Album!!!!!!!!

Hello squeezlets, earlier tonight I along with the rest of the world has discovered that the legendary post-rock band Godspeed You! Black Emperor is releasing a new album. This new album is entitled Allelujah! Don't Bend! Ascend!. This of course is the bands first LP since 2002 with Yanqui U.X.O.
The band is selling copies of the new LP as of tonight in Boston. Since like me, most of the world's GY!BE fans don't live in places they tour, the LP will be officially released by Constellation Records on October 15th for the fans in Europe and the 16th for the rest of the fans the world over. In the meantime you can either go over to Constellation Records and pre-order the new long over due LP or you can wait for the 15th/ 16th to come along (based on where you live) and pray that a leak comes soon.

Peaces, Stay Golden, (and never more importantly than in this moment now) Godspeed to you all,

Long Time No See

Dear Squeegees,

If you've been wondering where I've been, that's good. During the summers, I live in a remote part of NY State in which there is very limited internet access. When I can get internet at all, it is so slow that streaming or downloading music is virtually impossible. That is the sole reason I have put out no content this summer. I am looking forward to posting weekly album reviews once I get back to Utah in about a week. I sincerely apologize for letting the blog die a little, but its rebirth is on its way. Thanks for your understanding.

Carl
