Last time we wrote about Nicolas Merritt, we mentioned that he was about to enter the studio to record his new EP. A couple of weeks later, Nicolas has given an update on what’s been going on in the studio.
According to his MySpace page Nicolas writes,
“Hi Everyone! I spent 7 days in Goldentrack Studio working with Steve Wetherbee and Traa Daniels! We got 3 songs completed, filmed a new video for ‘Rockstar In My Head’ and had a day of taking pictures. There are some BIG surprises in the ‘Rockstar In My Head’ video. We made some changes and added a few things to the song and I think it sounds amazing. =) We played the old version this past Friday night the last time and also played the new version. ‘Rockstar In My Head’ video along with the 3 songs will debut early next week.”

Canadian punk outfit The Flatliners have debuted the song Carry The Banner off of their upcoming album Cavalcade on their MySpace page.
The band also gives us a little backstory on the song. They write,
“Back in the Great Depression, responsible, successful men became vagrants. Everyone was cast out like an economic-turned-social eclipse. When these people without homes or any sentiments of hope couldn’t find a safe place to sleep at night during these trivial times, their only option left was to ‘carry the banner.’ This meant they’d risk sleeping on the streets while trying to avoid being locked up for vagrant charges or worse, being killed.”
The Flatliners are also going on a Canadian tour in support of their new album Cavalcade from Fat Wreck Chords, to be released April 13th. Check their Dying Scene show page to see when they’ll be rolling through your town.

Alexander Hudjohn, former lead singer and guitar player for Anchor Down, is offering a free download of his new EP Acreage on his bandcamp page. You can stream and download the songs from the EP through his site. It sounds kind of like if Johnny Cash and Matt Skiba got together to write some country songs, and then the power went out so they jammed on acoustic guitars. Intervention Records will be releasing the album on vinyl in June.
Alexander also has a handful of shows coming up on the West Coast – check out the dates on Dying Scene Shows.

Streetlight Manifesto’s translation of Catch 22’s timeless album Keasby Nights resonates as a polished piece of work that only Streetlight Manifesto could deliver.
I’ve always been a fan of singer/songwriter Tomas Kalnoky’s music, and Keasby Nights is no exception. While musically, this album may not be as complex as Streetlight’s newer material, it has just as much heart as anything else Kalnoky has made. The songs may be seem lighter and more upbeat, but don’t be fooled; they are still full of emotion.
This is the album for the angst-y, depressed, or socially-awkward teenager. Tomas takes us on a musical voyage through his high school experiences. It’s music that I found I could identify with, and that’s one thing I appreciate most in a song.
As far as musicianship goes, none can top Streetlight Manifesto in skill. Every member does his part, and the result is a fine-tuned album called Keasby Nights.
