You'll see new bands, old bands, unsigned bands, huge artists. Album reviews, show reviews, pictures, giveaways, interviews. Me ramble on and on about music I love, like, dislike but not usually music I hate. I've created this blog for many reasons but one especially...]]> http://kathyknowsmusic.com/2010/09/disclaimer/feed/ 0 http://kathyknowsmusic.com/2010/09/veara-what-we-left-behind/ http://kathyknowsmusic.com/2010/09/veara-what-we-left-behind/#comments Wed, 01 Sep 2010 07:47:20 +0000 Kathy http://kathyknowsmusic.com/?p=554 myspace.com/veara Veara is a four-piece band including a girl drummer (girl power!), produced by Jeremy McKinnon of A Day To Remember. They released "What We Left Behind" in May. Yes, I am very behind on this band but this is my blog and I get to write about whatever I want.

YES! I'm going to spread awareness and promote New Politics, which I am GLAD and happy to do because their self-titled record is one of the four that have been on constant repeat in my car's stereo since I got a copy. The lineup will be a lot of fun and includes: Blink 182, Rise Against, Against Me, Bad Religion and A Day To Remember. You have probably heard (or heard of) all these bands but I'd like to introduce you to New Politics]]> http://kathyknowsmusic.com/2010/09/kroqs-epicenter-2010/feed/ 0 http://kathyknowsmusic.com/2010/08/hey-monday-beneath-it-all/ http://kathyknowsmusic.com/2010/08/hey-monday-beneath-it-all/#comments Fri, 27 Aug 2010 02:23:33 +0000 Kathy http://kathyknowsmusic.com/?p=530 Hey Monday released their new EP, "Beneath It All" on August 17th. I have been reading a lot on them lately and a lot of controversy and drama has appeared in discussions about the future of the band. I'd like to state my opinion on some of the issues surrounding them. Also, I'm giving away a couple copies of the record. Just leave a comment on your thoughts about anything in this post and I'll pick two winners to win a copy of the LP on Monday.]]> http://kathyknowsmusic.com/2010/08/hey-monday-beneath-it-all/feed/ 3 http://kathyknowsmusic.com/2010/08/this-time-next-year-road-maps-heart-attacks/ http://kathyknowsmusic.com/2010/08/this-time-next-year-road-maps-heart-attacks/#comments Thu, 26 Aug 2010 01:50:11 +0000 Kathy http://kathyknowsmusic.com/?p=522 myspace.com/thistimenextyear Basically, this is a record I can actually listen the whole way through and not skip a song.
