veggiecorecords Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 THE FRONT BOTTOMS 'ROSE EP' “These are the songs that people ask for when we’re on tour,” says vocalist/guitarist Brian Sella of THE FRONT BOTTOMS, about their new six-track ROSE EP (Bar/None Records; “They’re songs that were either we’ve played live at shows or we’ve had kicking around that we couldn’t let go of.” A collection of some of the best tracks of their career so far, Named after drummer Mathew Uychich’s grandmother Rosemary, Rose marks the first in a series of EPs named after their grandmothers which they plan on releasing in the future. “These songs were also Mat’s grandmother Rosemary’s favorite songs,” he explains. “So it was kinda fittin that we named this EP Rose.” Launching the CD with the crowd pleaser “Flying Model Rockets,” it kicks off with an epic and bombastic bang. Epic and conversational, the track propels listeners through their trademark clever lyrics have started massive sing-alongs at their live shows. “Lipstick Covered Magnet” and “Be Nice To Me” continue the punk thematics while the moody and introspective“Awkward Conversations” projects the tension of a relationship on the verge of collapse. The immediate smiling infectiousness of “12 Feet Deep” posits the story right in the middle of that precarious time between high school and college when kids have to confront a wider world. The first song and video released “Jim Bogart” puts Brian in the uneviable position of pining for a girl who doesn’t reciprocate his feelings.

zacooper Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 That price though. $15 for a 6 song EP with etching? I wonder if I should hold off for amazon or somewhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetsfan4ever80 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Is this limited? I'd prefer to hold out for a cheaper price if possible. batnoises 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwhitmuzik Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 These songs are so good. Love how they kept Twelve Feet Deep mostly acoustic. I probably like this better than the latest record which just says how poor the songwriting is on it for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nightonthesun Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Price seems right to me. So ordered. I wonder how many will be pressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobohunter48 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Brian's been talking about this happening for awhile, so I'm glad that it's finally up for pre-order. I hope that on one of the other EPs they do Christians Vs. The Indians. That song is dank. searos and YouLoveHisWife 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwhitmuzik Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 where did you hear the new version? I've had an advance for like a week. I'm really happy this finally happened, it was almost two years ago when I interviewed them that they said they wanted to do something with their old songs.

Rip Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Yea Im waiting for amazon. $19ppd for a one sided 12" is just to much for me. This is kind of the reason why I've yet to pick up Their/They're/There's latest EP. I find it so hard to spend so much on just a few songs, no matter how good they may be.

smeepo Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Considering ordering one, but it's low on my list of things to buy. Also, does anyone else dislike bar-none's website? corey. and jamescandeletta 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
museummouth Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 The price and pre-order date on this is stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha yeah their site is stuck in the 90's. Very hip. Legit label though. On the fence for ordering this, I'd probably pay $15 just cause I love TFB but I'm kind of agreeing with everyone else on the price. If it's limited I'd order it right now.

cwhitmuzik Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 It probably is colored, all the rest of the Front Bottoms stuff from here is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightonthesun Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I don't get why the vinyl date is ahead of the CD release. Doesn't make sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVHX Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 I don't get why the vinyl date is ahead of the CD release. Doesn't make sense. because it takes a lot longer to get a record pressed than it does to have a cd made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightonthesun Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 because it takes a lot longer to get a record pressed than it does to have a cd made. Sure but the songs are done right? So they could press the records any time. And I've never seen any band release a vinyl version of a record on a different date than CD.

nightonthesun Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Did you just get into music? Did you? No label/band that plans to have a CD/vinyl release put them out on separate dates. Sure, sometimes records are pressed afterwards because a vinyl release was decided on after a CD release date. But Bar None knows they're putting out a CD release and a vinyl release. So to not plan on having them released on the same date is bizarre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
