I can't get enough of the Fake Problems. I've probably listened to their EP more than anything else this year. I love it. I think the new album drops in April.

I saw Bort had their song Motion of the Ocean on his mix.

It's kind of a brash countryish punk sound.

They're opening for the Riverboat Gamblers right now. I'll up the EP for you if you're interested.

I was kind of wondering if they'd keep the energy up for the debut and sustain it for a full album.

Yeah, you sent me this...but weren't completely sold on it at the time. It came on randomly this morning (coincidentally) -- I LIKE! As with The Broken West, nothing ground breaking, but quite enjoyable, and both are perfect for the fine weather we are having here these days. I need to burn some discs of this stuff for the truckster.

Sounds good to me. I'll check this out later on.

Sounds like these guys could be right up my alley, but I think the lead singer's voice is just too grating in the long run. Not so much on "Motion of the Ocean," though.

Hmmm... we book Riverboat Gamblers. Didn't know they were on the tour. I dig the music/hate the dudes voice. I turned it off after 30 seconds.
