Ride Your Bike -- an amazing new band.



Wow.

Check out this band Ride Your Bike from Fort Collins, CO. I have to shoutout Come Pick Me Up for being on top of this soon-to-be gem.

Band is recently signed to Deep Elm. Their latest, Bad News From the Bar is slated to be released in 2008 on the influential indie.

Influential - well at least the label was influential to me, not sure about anyone else. The Emo Diaries - c'mon - classic shit. I admittedly had to wikipedia Deep Elm's catalog for a refresher (the Jade Tree, Deep Elm, and Saddle Creek catalogs all sort of blend together at some point). Look at this list of bands:

The Appleseed Cast
Benton Falls
Brandston
Last Days of April
Pop Unknown
Planes Mistaken for Stars.
Red Animal War
Sounds Like Violence

Impressive. No way Sounds Like Violence was a huge influence on Consider the Source. Impossible. haha. Check 'em out. And no, I've never sat in my room thinking about that unfulfilled love and listening to Brandston - emo much? And Pop Unknown?! Shit - now that is one amazing Austin band that I wish I had been into more when they were still around.

Available Now

Recommended listening: "Sticks and Stones"

looking down the barrel of a twelve-gauge, good thing he shot and missed.

we're all taller, with our shoes on if they fit right. those heels make you look ten stories high. i want you to know, you're beautiful, before we die.

Visit Deep Elm!!!
