The Famine
Brand New Tooth and Nail / Solid State Sampler

This could very well be the biggest news in free music since MyFreeMusicFriday.com shut down. Only this time, it’s good news.
Tooth and Nail and Solid State Records have teamed up again to create the ultimate free sampler once again. (The last one was the Hey! sampler, last year.) This time, it’s full of free new and unreleased songs from the latest and greatest artists on Tooth and Nail. To save time, I’ll just post the track listing. It speaks for itself.
- Children 18:3 – “LCM”
- The Classic Crime – “Abracadavers”
- Underoath – “In Regards To Myself (Live)”
- Capital Lights – “Outrage!”
- Ivoryline – “Be Still and Breathe”
- Sever Your Ties – “Captive”
- August Burns Reds – “Composure”
- Secret and Whisper – “XOXOXO”
- MYCHILDREN MYBRIDE – “HEADSHOT!”
- Oh, Sleeper – “Vices Like Vipers”
- Inhale Exhale – “I Needed A Spaceship (Instead I Got Problems)”
- Destroy the Runner – “Mr. & Mrs. Cuckoldom”
- Emery – “The Party Song”
- MxPx – “Shut It Down”
- The Becoming – “I Cry”
- Anberlin – “The Haunting”
- Demon Hunter – “Storm the Gates of Hell”
- Once Nothing – “The Dust of A Town”
- The Famine – “Scar the Earth”
- Advent – “Blackout”
- The Chariot – “And Shot Each Other”
- Soul Embraced – “Curtain of Deceit”
- Showbread – “The Pig”
- Search the City – “Son of a Gun”
- Family Force 5- “Fever”
- Run Kid Run – “Captives Come Home”
- Far-less – “A Toast To Bad Taste”
- Norma Jean – “Robots 3 Humans 0″
You can get all of the mp3s for free, in one .zip file, just by entering your name, email, and country of residence at the website. Tooth and Nail will them email you the link for the sampler.
Standout tracks are Anberlin’s “The Haunting”, which is a hauntingly beautiful Cities b-side, Capital Lights’ “Outrage!”, which is so unbelievable happy and catchy, it should be a controlled substance. Capital Lights is one of the best power-pop bands I’ve ever heard, and a must-hear for Hello Kelly and Eleventyseven fans.
For hardcore fans, “Vices Like Vipers” by new hardcore band Oh, Sleeper, is amazing. Tons of lyrical depth, plenty of screaming, eerie choruses, the works. And you can’t go wrong with Demon Hunter, Norma Jean, The Chariot, Inhale Exhale, and August Burns Red.
Actually, most of the songs on this are must-hear. Packed with new and old songs, this is one sampler you don’t want to miss. After all, it’s free!
Song Combat Results: Tie?!?
I’ve got some bad news for you. No one won the Song Combat this time. But, hey, no one lost either!
Thus, I’d decided to give you both the link to The Famine as well as the link to Fee. Alas, when I went get the link to The Famine, I discovered that they’d removed the song since last saw the page. You can still listen to the song, but you can’t download it. Major disappointment.
However, I did go ahead and find another hardcore alternative to The Famine. There’s a band called Beloved (you may have heard of them) who has two songs available for free on their Purevolume. The songs, “Aimless Endeavor” and “Death to Traitors” aren’t exactly the same style, but it’s the best I could do short notice.
Song Combat: The Famine Vs. Fee
vs.
Fee – “Burn For You”
The Famine was formed out of the RIP band Embodyment. They have a new CD coming out in May, and will be touring this summer with Demon Hunter, Living Sacrifice, and Oh, Sleeper, on the Stronger then Hell tour.
Fee is a new worship band on INO Records. Closest musical cousin would be David Crowder*Band. You may have heard “All Because of Jesus” on your local Christian radio station. They are one of my new favorites.
