RustyShackelford Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 some of my good friends are putting out their first record. This isnt their first album ever, but their first one to be on vinyl. Theyve been playing for going on 10 years and they are great musicians. they started off as a pop punk group and now theyve definitely evolved. they are on TDR records, and have been touring the entire USA constantly for the last year or two. They just moved out to LA last week. They are great dudes and deserve to have their name out there more than it already is. They are going to be on the Alkaline Trio tribute cd thats coming out soon. theyve got something like 6 albums out, but 3 or 4 of them are only locally released because they were just a local band whenever they were put out, and if anyone is interested in them ill upload em. they are a lot different than the videos below, more poppunk for sure anyway, check them out! if you like it pre order the record here for $14.99: http://tdrrecords.bigcartel.com/product/barely-blind-wilder-child-of-a-thousand-suns - black (ltd. 125) - color tba [half and half w/ splatter] (ltd. 175) here are a few videos and what not of them playing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oi6znyx1O3Q&hl=en&fs=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drtomoe123 Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Yeah, I already pre-ordered this thing too. I'm excited. I first heard about them back in '07, I think. I think it was The Way We Operate EP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyShackelford Posted September 19, 2011 Author Share Posted September 19, 2011 Awesome guys! Glad to hear it! I got an early copy on cd about a week ago. And its great, can't wait to spin it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RustyShackelford Posted September 19, 2011 Author Share Posted September 19, 2011 definitely not the type of music im normally into, but since ive been listening to them for the last almost 10 years, its cool to have seen them evolve first hand and play countless shows. i definitely suggest people give them a shot. i really wish their first 3 albums were readily available to you guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baran26 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I've owned this album on what they called the Cheesecake White/Red split for awhile and it fucking owns. Was just bumping their EP My Life With a Giant today and that also kicks ass. Any chance you still have any of their local releases from early days available to share OP?

samehardluckx Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Came across these guys in the free music section of AbsolutePunk a while back. Needless to say, I have the red/white split of Wilder Child and I'm desperately waiting for more new music. Their new song Golden Child is so good!

And yes I've heard Golden Child and it's much different but I love progression within a band. I'm sure I'd love their early stuff, just as I'll love their future releases.

deafening Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 who are you deafening? Rachel. I went to school in Nederland with Stephen, and went to a lot of their shows around '03 - '04. They definitely have a different sound now! Not really my style, but it's good to see a local setx band succeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
