There’s my Jimmy Fallon reference for the day. There’s this new thing called “digital music.” It’s odd…nowadays, you can just get online, pay some money with your credit card (or PayPal….but that’s another blog in itself), and instantly have music on your computer. Yes, full songs! Full albums, even! Anyways, […]

We Recommend: As Cities Burn, “Come Now Sleep”
As Cities Burn had a great start on Solid State Records, but after Son, I Loved You At Your Darkest, they seemed to be done due to having no lead vocalist anymore. Thankfully, they got the position filled and they came back with Come Now Sleep. It was one of those seemingly rare […]
We Recommend: Mojo and the Info, “Doctorate In Cold Rockin’ It”
The O.C. Supertones held a top spot in many Christian music fans’ hearts, with their light-hearted – yet always deeply spiritual – ska music. After Five Iron Frenzy called it quits, The Supertones ended up not being too far behind. In 2008, their lead singer, Matt “Mojo” Morginsky, took some […]
We Recommend: Philmore, “Philmore”
I sorta hesitate to recommend this album to the fine JfH readers. Reason being is because, in all honesty, it’s not really all that good of an album. But Philmore‘s self-titled album is fun, quirky and, if nothing else, entertaining. Now “Our Finest Hour” is a good song, so it does […]
“Out of print downloads” by Scott Fryberger
Question: Is it illegal to download music that is out-of-print? I’ve been wondering the past few days, and I haven’t been able to find any proof one way or the other (the RIAA only had a phone number as a contact, and I really didn’t feel like calling them haha). […]
We Recommend: Maylene and the Sons of Disaster, “II”
When a new band was announced that would be fronted by Underoath’s old vocalist, I was on board. Maylene and the Sons of Disaster‘s self-titled debut didn’t really catch me too well though. Then they released II. I was sold. It was raw. It was southern. It made me feel tough when […]
We Recommend: The Ember Days, “The Ember Days EP”
This young group of musicians are wonderful. They write worship songs full of heart and passion, and they also craft ambient, well-written music as the plate the message is served on (isn’t the meal more appetizing and appealing when the plate is clean and fresh instead of stale and worn […]
We Recommend: Five Iron Frenzy 2, “Electric Boogaloo”
Five Iron Frenzy‘s DVD came out recently, and so I’ve been in a big FIF state of mind. I watched it and saw that the general consensus amongst the bandmembers, in regards to their personal favorite FIF album, was Five Iron Frenzy 2: Electric Boogaloo. So I listened to it the […]
“FIF vs OCS” by Scott Fryberger
So, I miss ska music. Who’s with me? You? Yes? Yes. The acquiring of The Rise and Fall of Five Iron Frenzy (review coming soon, I promise) has put me in a ska mood as of late. It’s mostly been FIF, but I’ve also grooved to the O.C. Supertones lately, too. Now, […]
