Download The Graduate's The Evergreen EP FOR FREE on absolutepunk.net. Comes with a coupon for $2 off when you buy their full-length album, Anhedonia, which was one of my top ten albums for 2007. Seriously, if you haven't heard The Graduate yet, you're missing out.

Protest The Hero talks about their new album, Fortress, which hit stores TODAY (January 29). It's an incredible record, I highly recommend it. For being only 21, their talent far surpasses their years.

Unfortunately, they also talk about sharing a bus with Emanuel on Warped Tour '06 (Bus #50 - I spent most of my summer hanging out on that bus drinking Four and watching Protest shred Guitar Hero to pieces on expert level) and how Emanuel's singer used to smoke crack on the bus. That part made my stomach turn, I dated that guy a few years back (when I was young and naive... hah).

Video and lyrics to the song JT wrote for Casey. My comments are on page 2.

for fans of: death cab for cutie, iron & wine, the postal service, the shins, good music

Hi there!
We are The Age of Rockets. We live in New York City. We make music together because we love each other and have fun making it. We are a small baby unsigned band but hope to one day grow big and strong. Our music is made mostly on laptops and keyboards. We are currently expanding to include a giant orchestra!
