New Jealous Sound song surfaces

Check out http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=1358901 for a new Jealous Sound song video. It sounds like the title could be called "Set you Free." This is different than "Big Loves", which is a new song they played earlier in the tour. Very exciting!!!

Sunday's Best

I have really gotten back into the “emo” genre since I saw Sunny Day Real Estate last month. I have been researching previous bands that The Jealous Sound have been in. Their guitarist, Pedro Benito used to be in Sunday’s Best. I picked up their first two albums and have been listening to them non-stop. Their first album reminds me a lot of Mineral and Sunny Day. Their second album is more catchy and the vocals are more of a focus than their first album.
I wonder why this happens to many “emo” bands. It seems as if many of these bands put out their first album with many layers with the vocals layered into the songs. It’s as if the instruments are just as important as the vocals and the vocals are drowned out and often indistinguishable. Then they put out their next album that sounds more produced and the vocals are often more of the focus. This happened with The Promise Ring, The Get Up Kids, Sunny Day Real Estate, and now I see this happened with Sunday’s Best as well. Just an observation.
I also read that Blair Shehan contributed vocals to Say Anything’s …Is a Real Boy. I picked that album up and am really enjoying it. It’s like a sequel to Pinkerton, that Rivers wished he could write today. Man I have a feeling that Weezer’s new album is going to suck big time.
Gonna check out the sold out Brand New/ Manchester Orchestra on Sunday at First Ave!
