“Mondays w/ Craigery.”
Morning World,
Each Monday from here on out I’ve decided to share a song that is special to me; a song that has touched my life in one way or another, right here on my Tumblr page.
“Why Craig? I don’t get it!” - Well, just breathe.. it’s really easy. It simply breaks my heart to know there are so many truly amazing musicians / tracks out in the abyss of the oversaturated world of music / interweb that never get proper dues. I know that the group of people that follow me on this website will be open minded enough to give my suggestions a proper chance (one of the many reasons I care for you all so much).
Today’s song: Casket Lottery - Code Red
Take a listen to the song here ( youtube link - you’ll have to copy & paste - thanks a LOT TUMBLR! : / ) - http://bit.ly/zeqJzL
If you enjoy, then I highly suggest that you purchase the album that this track is on, called “Survival Is For Cowards”. It completely changed my perception of not only the capabilities of a 3 piece rock band.. YEAH, THEY’RE ONLY A 3 PIECE! But, it adds this remarkably dark beauty with a flare of sincerity that I believe to be lacking in today’s music. And, of course, this mournful masterpiece could only be written by musicians from the great state of Kansas. Plus, listen to that voice! I also highly suggest the track “Searchlights”.
Here is the link to purchase the album or to simply download “Code Red” for free —http://www.secondnaturerecordings.com/reborn/release_info.php?rel_id=141
I hope that I can inspire you each Monday by starting your week on a great note. Who knows, maybe I’ll even introduce you to your new favorite band / song.
Please, enjoy your week. Smile twice for me today, and if you feel so inclined - please share this with a friend! - Craig.
