Four Year Strong - Heroes Are Remembered, But Legends Never Die
--------------- You might think that for my blog, I slouch over Billboard charts and scour Myspace pages for hours out of the day in search for the perfect tune. Well, it is actually not always that noble of a quest. I was sitting around my favorite home away from home coffee place and heard a couple of punk bro-ish dudes name drop Four Year Strong, and I jumped onto their website to check them out.

Four Year Strong explains it all, they didn't have to do much explaining to have me hooked onto their magnetically attractive pop punk/hardcore music. "Heroes..." stuck out to me as the perfect song for kids who are too tough for The Maine but aren't too hardcore dig a decent head-shaking beat.

Fun fact! Four Year Strong receives a lot of cred in the punk and hardcore scene for re-popularizing synthesizer laden tracks with their 2004 demo release. "Heroes Are Remembered, But Legends Never Die" is from Four Year Strong 2007 album Rise or Die Trying.

Relient K - Jefferson Aeroplane

--------------------------------------The guys of Relient K have this to say: if you are a fan, they LOVE you. Says so in the jacket of their EP/LP The Nashville Tennis EP/ The Birds and the Bee Sides. Not only do they have clever puns, but they have 26(!) killer tracks from their early days that serves up pop rock 40-luv. Jefferson Aeroplane is a demo track on The Birds and the Bee Sides, and everything from the whistling intro to the fly away chorus makes this a sunny getaway when the clouds are overhead. Since Relient K love you, it only seems right if you love them back.
