I can't recommend this enough. Incredible debut album from Brooklyn's GOES CUBE. I've been following these dudes for close to 3 years now, and they've matured into something really great. Incredibly heavy, yet catchy and melodic. Download this asap, and if you dig, buy.

GOES CUBE - Another Day Has Passed
Many bands get all uppity about how they hate labels and comparisons and all that, but Brooklyn’s Goes Cube don’t really care what you call them. They're just unpretentious like that – no fancy gear, no fancy clothes or haircuts. They're simply three friends who are obsessed with making each song heavier, more intense, more glorious, and just plain better than the last. Stereogum has said that the band's "sledgehammer assault" is "inescapably awesome," and that they've become their "favorite underground locals." Oh My Rockness said, "Goes Cube is an insanely good band" and that they give "newfound hope for the future of rock in New York City."

goes from sounding like Unsane to Nirvana to Torche to Jesus Lizard to Quicksand in the same tune.

Thanks, brah. It's been a nice change of pace while I'm buried under a pile of bullshit.

I honestly like their previous work more than I like this.. but they're all great dudes. They played here last year on their more garage sounding material, and this year on their more melodic metal material. They're still good, and a lot of people slept on the richmond show unfortunately and didn't come out to see them.... and they needed a date that was already booked with a punk show, so it was kind of an awkward combination of bands.. but it was still a good show.

I'm sure they're still touring somewhere near one of y'all so check them out!

All three look very pretentious. There is nothing more pretentious than a sleeve tattoo.

And I would not like to get stuck in a conversation with any of them about the war in iraq.

I don't know who that first one is (some mid 90s alt rock band from Brisbane?), the second one is my high school modern history teacher's weekend band, and the Stones, well, apart from Charlie, they always looked stupid.

And I'll give this band a listen, I just found the incongruity between the "no fancy haircuts" description and the fact that that twat has clearly spent at least three thousand dollars on making his arms look pretty kinda funny.

I just found it a bit funny while they do not have fancy haircuts, one of them is sporting old-timey facial hair that just screams 'please look at me'.
