Balance And Composure

So I just realized that I mentioned these guys in the last four posts I've done, and was shocked when I realized I didn't have a post on them already, so here we go.


Balance And Composure are a five-piece post-hardcore band from Doylestown, Pennsylvania that formed in 2007. A couple of them played in a band called The Erection Kids (who were very pop punk-oriented), and a few other bands. After they disbanded, B&C were formed. They took influence from bands such as Brand New, Jimmy Eat World, and Texas Is The Reason, as well as Nirvana, Mineral, Sunny Day Real Estate, Jawbreaker, American Football, Small Brown Bike, The Appleseed Cast, and Neutral Milk Hotel (name dropping errywhere). These guys are brilliant at what they do, seamlessly integrating catharsis, melody, grit, gentle noodling arpeggios and crushing, distorted walls of chords. They fuse so many things into their perfect dynamic, and they're so effective because of it. These guys are probably one of my favourite bands around now, and they've got a new full-length coming out this year which I'm really stoked on. They're also really tight live, so check them out.

  17. Driving and enthusiastic, Mp3 music makes that Black Gospel music follows its underlying foundations back numerous hundreds of years, at any rate to the appearance of African slaves in North America. In the African-American people group, Gospel turned into the music of obstruction, strength, and self-control.Mp3 Download
