What I have been listening to - Every Time I Die

Another generic photograph of a band :D

I stumbled on another Metalcore band (I promise I don't listen to just Metalcore guys, believe me) which I think has to be one of the best I have heard in a while, and unlike the other two I have written about, these guys have been around longer and they have 5 albums and a whole bunch of compilations as far as I know, and they are from America. I am very excited!

Who are these guys?

Brothers Keith (Vocals) and Jordan Buckley (Guitar) formed the band back in '98 in Buffalo, New York along with Micheal Novak (Drums), Andy Williams (Guitar) and John McCarthy (Bassist). After a tour around the local area, they released their first EP 'Burial Plot Bidding War' under Goodfellow Records in 2000.


In 2001 McCarthy left the bad to be replaced by Aaron Ratajczak before the band released their first Album with Ferret Records, 'Last Night In Town'. This was followed up by a tour with Killswitch Engage by their side.


Since then these fellas have released more albums such as 'Hot Damn!' in 2003 and 'The Big Dirty' in 2007 and have been touring worldwide.


Haha :P


Awesome - That one word that sums up what I think.


Even after getting a few of the albums I have only had time to listen through 'The Big Dirty' and a few pieces off 'Hot Damn!'. I think that each and every song I have heard has awesome! The songs are not so much melodic or heavy as other Metalcore bands I have heard, but the music doesn't have to be heavy to be good at all - it is against the point anyway.


ETID has a very hardcore, somewhat punky feel to it, as well as including some southern and mathcore elements in the music, and it is definitely a good mix - and it works! Some of the sounds sound very trashy with the symbols, which adds more awesomeness to it.


New Album Alert! Where is my noisy horn?!


If you already knew these guys, then you probably already knew that they have a new album scheduled for release later this year, titled 'Ex-Lives'. Here is some more on that...


Epitaph Records has some cool behind the scenes videos on their YouTube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/EpitaphRecords


Links 'n' Sh*t...


Alright, so my favorite album (so far) is probably 'Hot Damn!', with my favorite track (so far) being 'Ebolarama', which is just great, and I think if you are into this stuff you should listen to it if you haven't already...




And here is their site! http://everytimeidie.net/
