Tuesday Playlist: Brought to you by BandtoBand...
So it's a bit later than I would of liked to gotten this posted, however you can blame the site BandtoBand. I got a bit to caught up in just fooling around on it for a couple hours trying to find interesting connections between various groups. Who knew you could connect practically every band with one other. Most of you out there probably already know about this fairly cool site, however for those that don't, think of it like The Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon game but only for bands. A lot of fun to play around with. Anyway, after realizing that I had wasted so much time on there, I figured it would be cool to just do todays playlist based on a random search that I threw at it. So here you go, todays playlist explains the connection between indie/emo band Boys Life to the experimental/indie Brainiac. Enjoy!
01. Boys Life - Fire Engine Red [MP3]
Key member here is Brandon Butler, who sang and played guitar in the band.
02. Canyon - Drive All Night [MP3]
Later Brandon Butler would show up in Canyon, whom shared the same sort of Americana feel that was found in Boys Life. However, the music was much more spacious and dwelled a bit more into slowcore territory.
03. 1.6 Band - Sticks to the Skin [MP3]
Butler played with Vin Novara who was a member of this 90's Gern Blandsten hardcore/punk band.
04. Beyond - The Death of Us [MP3]
Novara eventually left 1.6 Band to attend college and his replacement was Kevin Eagan who played in Beyond. I guess that technically counts since they played in the same band, however never really played together. Regardless, it works for me.
05. 108 - Solitary [MP3]
While in Beyond Kevin Eagan played with Vic DiCara whom would later go on to form and play guitar in 108. Other than DiCara and singer Rob Fish, the rest of the lineup was fairly shaky, featuring a few different names filling in. One being Chris Daly, whom leads up to the next one...
06. Jets to Brazil - Empty Picture Frame [MP3]
Daly also spent time in the amazing Texas is the Reason, however joined up with Jets to Brazil to play drums after they split.
07. The Van Pelt - My Bouts With Pounding [MP3]
With Chris Daly playing in Jets to Brazil, he played with Brian Maryansky. Before Jets to Brazil however, Maryansky played guitar in this indie rock outfit. During that time The Van Pelt's original bassist Sean Green would leave the group and be replaced by Toko Yasuda.
08. Enon - Old Dominion [MP3]
Toko Yasuda would later join Enon after original member Steven Calhoon would leave the group.
09. Brainiac - Hot Seat Can't Sit Down [MP3]
With that, it completes the connection. Yasuda played in Enon which also featured Brainiac member John Schmersal. Nifty huh?
