Let me review your band, etc.

Rob and Matt and I are going to bring back our website Zest For Life and this time it is going to be better than ever, and this time we actually mean that, maybe. Earlier this week, me and Rob kicked around some really good ideas on how to just make it in to something we actually want to do, and we’re all meeting up on Tuesday to discuss it. The best thing is, it’s actually made me want to write some stuff again, so I’ve been writing some reviews, a few of which are very overdue. I’m actually really enjoying it, and liking what I’m coming up with. If you’re in a band that has an album/EP/demo you’d like me to review, then drop me a message with a mediafire/wupload/(free) bandcamp download link (I’d rather not stream stuff, just for convenience) in either my ask box or at rob.d.evans@hotmail.co.uk, regardless of geographical location or musical style! I want to hear it and write about it! If you read my blog, you know I have impeccable taste and can usually string a sentence or two together, which puts me ahead of at least 85% of music reviewers already.

Anyway, here’s what I’ve been writing about, for anyone that might give a damn. If we get our shit together, hopefully they’ll be up on the site in the next few days!

The Martha EP

The T-Shirt Weather EP

The new A Silver Mt. Zion EP

The Reno Dakota EP

The newest Johnny Foreigner album.

I don’t know whether to try and review Hello Sadness or not. Young Attenborough, Algiers and The Magnificent will likely be next up. Maybe Baskin’s Wish, the newest Park Jefferson, and maybe SundayxLeague and Nai Harvest, even though they’ve been out for a while. I dunno. I’m gonna write about a bunch of stuff, and I’m mostly putting this here to make sure I actually do it.

Leave something for the rest of us to write about. Jesus.

Not that I’ve listened to much new music apart from Martha, The Magnificent and the Menzingers, over and over and over again. Because fuck, their new record is really fucking good.

Also, I could review Hello Sadness if you’re unsure. Although it’ll probably be the complete opposite of what you would say about it because I actually really like it.

ALSO, also, I should probably watch a few more ‘new’ films at some point so I have more to write about.

ALSO, ALSO, also, the sentiments that Rob has said re: music that you’d like reviewed and that is echoed. If you want me to listen to something or watch something that you’ve made then hit me up and I’ll say some words about it, probably.
