Tom Gabel- Heart Burns


This is Tom Gabel of Against Me! playing some songs. Really not much more to say other than that. Most are acoustic, one is electric. The songs sound much more like Reinventing rather than New Wave though, and that is a very good thing. My favorite track off of this is probably 'Anna Is a Stool Pigeon' which is about an anarchist that falls in love with an FBI informant and ends up going to jail. I really thought this was going to be terrible, but it was actually one of my favorite EP's of this year.

For fans of: drinking PBR and upping the punx while you check your transcripts

The Steinways- Missed the Boat



This is the one of the most legit pop punk albums I've ever heard. With song titles like 'Why Dont Jewish Girls Like Me' and '((Holy Shit) I Can't Believe I Still Don't Have) A Girlfriend', you can't go wrong. This album makes me feel less ashamed of myself for being single sitting in my boxers eating eggs on a Friday night while I post on a music blog that no one is going to read. The only thing I can complain about on this album is the typical verse-chorus approach to the songs, which makes a few of them seem pretty repetitive, but the good ones definitely make up for it.

For fans of: songs about running out of weed, the descendents, and not being ashamed for playing pokemon in public
