I have been wanting to write about this since the second I got back from listening to the new Man Down Medic tracks yesterday afternoon, but I haven't been able to come up with the right words to describe how incredible everything is sounding so far. I guess 'incredible' would be a good word, but maybe I'm a little biased.

In case you don't know, Man Down Medic is a Seattle band made up of three siblings- Sam, Jacob, and Larissa- along with a keyboardist named Phillip and a drummer named Harrison. I booked their first show at KTUB almost two years ago when they were really only playing acoustic, and since then they have gone onto the final round of EMP's sound-off, played multiple tours, and released an EP entitled Fantasyland (and there is a review of that album somewhere on the site). Oh yeah, and they also built a studio in their house on Anderson Island. No big deal...

ANYWAY, Sam and Harrison showed me a few of their new songs yesterday, and I honestly can't remember the last time I was this excited for an album to be released (aside from Alexisonfire, but that excitement ceased a couple of days ago as outlined in this blog). They really have a little bit of everything- electronic, rock-n-roll, electronic rock-n-roll, and then the songs they already have on their Myspace page. The new album should have around 10 tracks, and trust me, once I find out when this bad boy is going to be released I will plaster it all over this website.

You have been warned.
