However, with German group Farmers Boulevard I'll make an exception, if only because I think at least one of their free albums is rather accessible. "Still Four" is the one of which I speak, and throughout it the band flirts with melody very admirably. The other two should probably have an extreme intensity disclaimer on them, but hey, if you like that type of thing, go for it!</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://farmers-boulevard.de/band/">Farmer's Boulevard</a></span> - <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">Still Four</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_fqnqZwIOf4Y/SzzdOPqDCII/AAAAAAAAAo0/zylua1cMsOk/s1600-h/StillFour.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_fqnqZwIOf4Y/SzzdOPqDCII/AAAAAAAAAo0/zylua1cMsOk/s200/StillFour.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5421451288238033026" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://freemusicarchive.org/music/zip/0214a30d211d37ad2ecc13e64ecd4ebd4480de63">Download the Album From the Free Music Archive</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://farmers-boulevard.de/band/">Farmer's Boulevard</a></span> - <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">Red Carpet</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_fqnqZwIOf4Y/Szzd0O8vfgI/AAAAAAAAAo8/U5rw9BhiCaA/s1600-h/RedCarpet.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_fqnqZwIOf4Y/Szzd0O8vfgI/AAAAAAAAAo8/U5rw9BhiCaA/s200/RedCarpet.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5421451940883037698" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://freemusicarchive.org/music/zip/7b321ccf27ca81fd75df9a2fb919b323da72b87b">Download the Album From the Free Music Archive</a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://farmers-boulevard.de/band/">Farmer's Boulevar</a></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://farmers-boulevard.de/band/">d</a></span> - <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">Caught By...</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_fqnqZwIOf4Y/SzzePDj-xoI/AAAAAAAAApE/cPXm14p0YKc/s1600-h/CaoughtBy.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_fqnqZwIOf4Y/SzzePDj-xoI/AAAAAAAAApE/cPXm14p0YKc/s200/CaoughtBy.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5421452401682859650" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://freemusicarchive.org/music/zip/0edf8bcd47f3b5b27cba1df9f5080725da319028">Download the Album From the Free Music Archive</a></div>VultureDudehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09592901647528118945noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6104315428043988426.post-85012598018699751312009-12-31T09:00:00.000-08:002009-12-31T09:52:30.121-08:00Bastard Child Death Cult - Year Zero<a href="http://downloadfreepunkalbums.blogspot.com/2008/01/welcome-post.html">About This Blog (Click)</a><div><br /></div><div>I reviewed this album a while back - fairly favourably I might add - but now it's available for free download via the label's site.

I absolutely love UK horrorpunk group The Ruined. They've got a fast and ragged, to-hell-and-back intensity that's a pretty rare find these days. Back in 2006 they released Hear Lies, and fans like myself kept waiting for something new and substantial. A few minor splits and compilation tracks were reported, but nothing was available for the average internet goer. In any case, the band has opted to upload an eight track compilation of all that hard to find stuff, as well as some of their personal favourites from Hear Lies. You'll find it below.

Lofty acoustic melodies and soothing vocals make for a great album.

The Challenged have been kicking around for what seems like forever, and Nancy, well, I've never heard of 'em - but based on their contribution to this split, it looks like I'm gonna have to get out and do some research! I highly recommend this awkwardly named split to rough pop-punk enthusiasts.</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"><a href="http://www.thechallenged.com/news.htm">The Challenged</a>/Nancy</span> - <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">7 Guys 1 Cup</span></div><div><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_fqnqZwIOf4Y/SwMzdprgJWI/AAAAAAAAAmM/6Mp1yMhC_54/s1600/Album+Art+-+7guys1cup.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_fqnqZwIOf4Y/SwMzdprgJWI/AAAAAAAAAmM/6Mp1yMhC_54/s200/Album+Art+-+7guys1cup.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405220562272265570" /></a><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.thechallenged.com/7guys1cup.zip">Download the Album from The Challenged</a></div>VultureDudehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09592901647528118945noreply@blogger.com0
