any OURS fans on here? These guys are incredible! Their album, "Distorted Lullabies" is by far the most visceral, emotionally-charged rock album I've picked up since OLP released "Naveed" back in '94.

if you're not familiar with their music, here are a few of their songs to try out:

- Sometimes
- Medication
- Fallen Souls
- I'm A Monster
- Meet Me In The Tower

or, feel free to message me and I'll send ya the goods.

I like Sometimes.

My brother said he had the CD, but didn't like it.

Yeah my sister is like, their biggest fan, she saw them live a couple times, but I haven't listened to them a lot, just what she makes me listen to and they're pretty good from what I've heard.

I just bought their new CD "Precious" yesterday, and it's amazing. Some songs that everyone should download:

Kill The Band
Leaves (first single I believe)
In A Minute
Realize
Places

I really like Leaves. They remind me of Jeff Buckley :)

They're playing a show at a tiny little club in Vermont, but I'm going to be in Maine then :(

Places is beautiful... Jimmy's voice has range like no other!

But I must say the best song off their new album is "Chapter 2 (Money)"
