My friend has a band. I've been listening to John's stuff for a few years now. It's been really cool listening to them as they've developed. And now they're VERY good!! They're having a CD release party later this month. I'm seriously psyched to go to that thing.

Here's a site to download some of their music:

I especially like "Whiskey Glow" and "Morphine Drip". I'm listening to "Morphine Drip" right now as I'm posting this. Trust me. You should definitely check these guys out. It's your turn to be cooler than your friends. You heard these guys first.
