Bare Arms

As good as it gets, seriously. This band has me dancing for joy for the future of post-hardcore! Finally, a p/h group that doesn't sound exactly like 1000s of other 'bands' like A Day To Remember, Alesana and all that rubbish.

As a bonus, they're local too. Unsigned and unheard of - WIN WIN WIN!

Now, for the music. They've only released a self-titled five-track EP and a few demos, that are awash with lyrical complexity, bass oriented direction, and a kick ass female lead singer that shreds hard.

Of particular note is the track 'The Refrain' on the self-titled EP. I've pretty much had this on repeat for four days now and it amazes me. The opening crescendo and bass line gives me shivers.

I've heard along the grapevine that they might just be touring in my town, so that'll be pretty awesome

I've posted two links, from which you will be able to find their material as free downloads.
