Best Lagwagon song ever, and as a bonus it's live from the Bizarre Festival!
Lagwagon - Violins [live]

At The Drive-In

I miss At The Drive-In. Here's a live MP3 of them playing the first track off their "Vaya" EP:
At The Drive-In - Rascuache [live]
For more info on the now-defunct ATDI, go to AtTheDrive-In.net.

Oh, that's right, I owe you an extra MP3 because I forgot last week. Okay, here's an Anal Cunt song for you. Don't tell your parents.

Elliott

Elliott is *finally* back in the swing of things, recording and touring in the near future. This moody, semi-electronic track is off the limited-edition "Louisville is for Lovers" compilation and is exclusive to there:
Elliott - Bleed In, Breathe Out
The band says that this song will also be on their highly anticipated new album, but it will be almost completely reworked. For more info on Elliott, head on over to ElliottInTransit.com. To view the band's upcoming tourdates with the Liars Academy and Christiansen, click READ MORE. Lastly, to keep up-to-date with the band, join their Yahoo! Group, where Elliott drummer Kevin consistently posts [and treats us fans to MP3s like this].

Alkaline Trio

Don't ever say I didn't give you guys brand new stuff:
Alkaline Trio - Jaked On Green Beers
This is the band's contribution to the new Atticus comp. Read a review of it over to the left, if you'd like, and if you want more info about the comp, click on that nice shiny banner at the top of the site. Oh yeah, for more info on the Alkaline Trio, go to AlkalineTrio.com. And please don't crash my server downloading this, thanks.

Saturday Supercade

Every band, no matter how forgettable, seems able to produce at least one completely kick ass, "signature" song. This would be Saturday Supercade's:
Saturday Supercade - Leave It Like This
Want a description? Imagine the singer of Millencolin fronting an amalgamation of old Saves the Day and old Alkaline Trio. Toe tapping hand clapping good times. For more info on Saturday Supercade, head on over to TheCade.com.

The Ghost

Holy fucking christ this band is good:
The Ghost - By The Books
6 minutes of wicked angsty post punk coming at you, right there. Download that shit and tell me it doesn't rule. For more info on the Ghost, go to TheGhostBand.com.

The Killingtons / The Strokes

Well, since last week's MP3 got messed up, I'm posting it again:
The Killingtons - All My Friends Are Vampires
This song rules. Download it, you'll see. But since it's a new week, I must have a new MP3, too:
The Strokes - New York City Cops
Here's the infamous song that was dropped from the band's domestic release of "Is This It" in response to the 9/11 attacks. Get it here, get it now.

For more info on the Killingtons, go to TheKillingtons.com and for more info on the Strokes, go to TheStrokes.com.

The Killingtons

In tribute to the band since they just broke up [read the story below if you haven't already], here is one of the best tracks off the band's only full length album:
The Killingtons - All My Friends Are Vampires
This has a killer guitar line, and J.K.'s vocals have rarely sounded better. If you wanted to define "emo rock," this would be it, as far as I'm concerned. Check out the band's website if you want more info on the now-defunct group.
UPDATE: Okay, I got a full MP3 up. Check it out, it rules.
UPDATE 2: Had to take down the MP3 temporarily; bandwidth issues prevail - Aubin
UPDATE 3: Man, you're probably sick of these now. Anyways, a clip of the song is now up, hopefully sometime soon I can get the whole song up. - Scott

Wesley Willis

Who better to write a song about OJ Simpson's wrongdoings then the man, the myth, the legend himself?
Wesley Willis - O.J. Simpson

The Promise Ring

Whoops, almost forgot it was MP3 of the week day. Anyway, in celebration of the Promise Ring's new album due out in just a mere 3 weeks, I bring to you what is arguably their best song ever written:
The Promise Ring - A Picture Postcard
This is an oldie but definitely a goodie off their "Falsetto Keeps Time" 7" - it's also included on their "The Horse Latitudes" CDEP [both available at JadeTree.com]. For more info on the Promise Ring, go to www.TPR-Online.com.
