Suburban Home Records Mix Tape Vol. 5

Suburban Home Records is the label many of our favorite bands call home; Drag the River, The Takers, Look Mexico, Tim Barry, Two Cow Garage are just a few of the groups making great music for this little Denver label. Every few months they put together a mixtape and send it out in their mailorders. Recently they have switched to distribution through InterPunk. So they are self-distributing this Volume of the mixtape series electronically.

Download it here.




Celebrate 1 Year!



This coming Sunday, July 18, at 11pm Embrace the Sound is Celebrating its 1 year anniversary by going live. We will attempt live radio for the first time. I'll be joined by my two favorite co-hosts, Ben and Tom, of Patrick's trivia fame. We'll chat, play some songs, take your calls requests and dedications, as well as give away a few special prizes.

Thank you for listening over the past year. KMSU is just an awesome radio station and I couldn't be happier to be a part of that community. It has been a dream come true for this young music lover, and I hope to be around for many more.

Oh No! It's DEVO!

I had a chance to voice my dis pleasures about the off stage antics at the MN Zoo DEVO show this week. I started a topic on the DEVO community page, read all about it.

There is no denying that the 70 minutes DEVO was onstage was one of the best live music performances I have ever seen. Tons of energy and a band that loves to play the music they made. But coming off a nearly 2 1/2 hour Tool show the previous Thursday, I was quite irritated by the shortness of the concert. And that the copy of Duty Now For The Future I purchased on ebay a while back had New Traditionalists inside!

Oh well, I still love DEVO...except Shout. I'll post more pics and a few vids I took in the next few days...
