Threadbare


Heavy, Bitter, And From the Heart...


I couldn't think of a better way to describe them as the official myspace page has done. Such a passionate and beautiful sound that brings to mind bands like Ressurection, Cable, 108, and SeventyEight Days (featuring the vocalist of chokehold) which i'll come around to posting some stuff from them soon enough. Its music like this that clasps tight on your heart strings. The emotion and intensity heard in the vocals (which it may just be me but gives me this Modest Mouse kinda feeling at times?) just pull you into the already breathtaking sound of it all. My favorite release would probably have to be "Feeling Older Faster" the complex distortion of the feedback from the first track that breaks into the song "Midas" with the heavy clean chugs then later you get to the song "Penicillin" and i think that was the song that convinced me of the sheer brilliance of Threadbare's overall sound. The band reformed after 12 years back in July for a show to benefit the bassist's sister who had passed away from a fight with cancer to help raise money for a scholarship based in her name. Everyone probably knows by now that they will be performing at the hardcore event of the year this May in Chicago at the Burning Fight book release show which all proceeds are going to various charities. This compilation is an unofficial discography of all of Threadbare's recordings and releases put together by the guy at the icoulddietomorrow blog im just reposting it. From what i understand Second Nature Records will be putting out a discography before the Burning Fight show too. Download this and be happy.
