Living a life kept shut by a dream,
I'm reaching out to grasp my reality.
Hands of time wrap tight around my neck, and hit me so hard,
leaving me eyes black.
staring at a ceiling,
wondering why i never left,
penning words in a notebook,
wondering why haven't slept.
sanity is tapping in a cell
inside my fucking head.
begging for redemption
after hearing what was said.
the nights, they will not sleep
cause the days, have played for keeps.

I've rediscovered my love for a few bands recently. Wretched Ones and Whiskey Rebels are at the top of that list.
You heard belligerent 86 yet? Singer of the wretched ones.

Bio doesn't say anything about Wretched Ones. Not sure if these guys would make the regular rotation, but I dig the outlaw country vibe to "Been
Drinking."

Sorry you're right! Fuck knows how I thought it was the wretched ones singer??
Band started in Austin/Texas 1997 by some members from the locally infamous Contradicks.
The original lineup was Houston Ritcheson on guitar/vocals (also playes in Brewtality Inc.), Bobby Fuentes on drums/vocals (also plays in The Oistrs,
Blunt force trauma and Knocked out stiffs) and Josh Nash on bass (later replaced by Josh Purrpura from Endless struggle). Playing around Texas for
some years as a three-piece band they broke up in 1999 to focus on their more succesfull "side-projects".
Reuniting again in around 2006 they had replaced Josh with Mike Conklin (later played in the skatepunk band Knocked out stiffs with Bobby) on bass and
also added Doug-O from Route 23 on lead guitar.
This band is total surprise for me since i never had heard them before this album was released. And damn what an album it is! They really remind me
about Beltones and Those unknown but with a more modern sound.
I can easily say there is not a single bad song on the entire record and the way that Bobby and Houston shares the vocal duties on the songs gives
some good variety to the album.
One of those few punk albums that gives me a happy feeling when i listen to it and if you like good old drinkingsongs or just plain good music you
will love these guys.
The best of the best is It gets better, Beltones inspired track Its over and Yesterdays hero that i think i have listened to atleast ones every week
for the last two years.

wez, that's a recommendation if I ever heard one. Will definitely check these guys out some more. And I've been meaning to ask the board for new
music recommendations, since I really have been rediscovering some old favorites recently and been feeling out of touch with what's going on these
days. Thanks!
Also check out, off with their heads album from the bottom.

Funny thing is though most hardcore kids buy into all that posh slag turned street without knowing the full facts thing.

Reminds me of the Streets a little bit for some reason..catchy. Cute broad too..but c'mon..ANOTHER chick pining over a skinny bearded douchebag
...break away from the pack and get yourself a fat guy HOney, that fridge will be empty but he'll treat you like gold...I like the way she dresses
though.

so explain to me the posh bird acting ghetto thing that the hardcore kids buy into. not familiar. i've only know of lily allen because the fact that
her boobs come out a lot seems to make her newsworthy. not familiar with kate nash other than this song. watching the video made me like the song a
bit less, though.
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

For the likes of the B9 users who seem to think the likes of lilly allen and kate nash come from the "streets" of London when infact they've both had
very privileged lives........Lilly allens dad is keith allen who happens to be a very big actor over here and wrote that god awful vindaloo England
world cup anthem and kate nash was fucking the singer of some art-house indie fag band who also was massive over here and then low and behold she was
the next big thing all because she could suck a cock or two.

The reason it reminds you of the streets is because it's all produced by the same label who shot the streets to fame along with dizzy rascal Which out
of the whole Dub-step,grim,two-step,garage bullshit Is the only one I actually respect as an artist and a real person.............The rest are just
another bunch of music media produced puppets.
