rhg5010 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Did anyone see the punknews story tonight? The New Rising Sons (Garrett from Texas Is The Reason) are reuniting. Man I love this group about 10 times more than TITR and Solea, and those are two great bands. Anyway all of a sudden the New Rising Sons have a myspace page. http://www.myspace.com/mugofbrimstone Hey Virgil, I'm sure you're at least familiar with Texas Is The Reason. If you've never listened to The New Rising Sons, think Texas Is The Reason minus the emo plus a more upbeat sound and country aspects... almost like the Refreshments, Ninja Gun, or certain songs from None More Black. On top of that, Garrett Klahn is one of the best songwriters around. Why am I writing this? Because on the Myspace by the "Record Label" it says Unsigned. I just got to thinkin... country influence, good songwriting, a multi-group artist... this sounds a lot like Suburban Home/Vinyl Collective material... why not send them a postcard? Just food for thought. A guy can dream can't he? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottheisel Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 I only heard that one EP this band put out (I believe it was self-titled) but I remember thinking it was a whole lot of not-good. Then again, that was a long time ago, so maybe I've matured and would like their stuff now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhg5010 Posted October 24, 2008 Author Share Posted October 24, 2008 Their first EP was just alright, kinda had weird ska elements, but the second was about as good as possible. Seriously I'm a true backer of this band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oakland Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 I did not like the EP either. And I think there was some association with Into Another's old guitarist, too, which for me is a big plus. Still, I didn't think it was anything special. Same with Solea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottheisel Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Solea's always been a big pile of "meh" in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
