Update on The Ranks

Aug 04 2010 Published by Tyron Bache under Music

So I thought I would put together a little update on my friends who play in the official “2nd best band in the world” – The Ranks. Neil, Brett and Dom have released Sky Mountain Brave and have a new myspace page ;) [I helped them with the myspace layout].

Sky Mountain Brave

This 5 track EP was released by Justice And Mercy Records and features the following songs:

  • 36th May
  • A Is for Ambulance
  • Adelaide
  • Superman
  • The Something Sailor (hands down my favourite track of theirs!)

Jonty from Lazerclaw did the stunning artwork, you can email Jonty Hurd.
You can purchase Sky Mountain Brave on itunes. Get it while it’s HOT!

Speaking of HOT you should go visit their revamped myspace page!

They also do some of the best vlogs (Video blogging) I have ever watched, like this one, that one and who could forget this one.

The will be playing next at EJECT in Pietermaritzburg. If you have a chance go check them out, support SA Music!

Versus The Wolf

Jun 29 2010 Published by Tyron Bache under Music, Video

Wow, I haven’t posted anything in weeks, I have been working and playing hard but anyway one of my biggest passions is music, I love finding decent new music. Myspace has been a lovely testing ground for this. I can sit and stream music for hours while I work. Another thing I really enjoy is supporting local music, South African music. Versus The Wolf are one of South Africa’s best live bands – in my opinion – they have been going strong since 2005 under a different name though however they have now re-invented themselves and are about to launch an album called “Uncovering Faces” this Winter. Go check out their myspace below and give them a listen.

Below are there first two vlog’s that they did and I think they are pretty rad.

Here is a link to their myspace.

Best place to find new music

I love music and listen everyday but like most people I guess I get bored too quickly so I am in a constant search for new tunes to pump into my eardrums.

Right so the best place to find new music… the internet. I could end the post here but then I wouldn’t be letting you in on all the sites I just love. Right it’s time for a list:

  • Myspace – Ok so if you haven’t heard about myspace don’t bother reading any more of this list go and explore myspace now. It is just full of bands that are just waiting to be heard, I challenge you to search myspace for any band you can think of, they will have a profile and a couple of songs to listen to, here’s one of my favourites: New Altum
  • Facebook – Also full of pages and groups of bands waiting to be joined, here’s one of my favourites: The Ranks
  • Purevolume – Specially for music, this site also has great charts with free downloads, here’s one of my favourites: The Almost
  • Thesixtyone – A music adventure – go explore – you have never seen a site like this one! here’s one of my favourites: WWPJ

That should keep you busy for a while, if you find a cool band let me know just as long as it isn’t pop music I will give it a listen.
