BUY THIS ALBUM:
Ninja Gun may call Validosta, Georgia their residence, but Gainesville, Florida, is their home away from home. The band really cut their teeth playing around in Gainesville and throughout the process, the band has been adopted by the Floridian college town. Although, Gainesville has become synonymous with bands like Hot Water Music and Against Me, Ninja Gun may have more in common with Tom Petty, who lived in Gainesville before starting the Heartbreakers.
I am quick to tell those who will listen that the band has a lot in common with the Shins and Band of Horses, but I think what sets Ninja Gun apart is their Southern upbringing. The band writes concise, tuneful pop that rides the line between Classic Rock, Southern Rhythms, Indie Pop, and Americana with a slight punk influence. I welcome you to listen to the title track, “Restless Rubes”, which starts the album to get an idea of what I am talking about.
“Restless Rubes” is one my favorite albums of 2008 and I hope that everyone will lend an ear.
when you create a playlist in itunes – select all the tracks and under the “sorting” tab, title the “sort album” as the name of the playlist, and under the “options” tab, click the “part of a complilation” check box and select “yes”. easy peasy. that way it doesn’t change the name of the artists or albums, but the playlist stays organized.
oh – i missed a step… after you’ve selected all the tracks, right click and choose “get info”. it’ll ask you if you want to edit multiple artist info… just say yes.
i make a lot of playlists…
I CAN’T F&%#ING BELIEVE IT! This news is better than Christmas!
That’s exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!
hey buddies i love the new site and as you know ive been missing the fairlanes welcome to nowhere and it makes my year that you have that and drive to nowhere! as i listen to them i just miss when i could go see them play it was a different world then! and we all wish the best for you guys in the new one!
the lack of any MD dates makes me sad.
i so wish i could make this. gonna be a great time.
Should play the Dover Brick House in Dover, NH. Two Cow Garage gets a lot of play in the bar and they have a great set up for live shows.
I am pretty thrilled about tonights St Pete show. I have not seen Drag/Jon in over a year. Even though they’ve been back to FL several times since. That article by Scott on Nine Bullets pretty much sums up my thoughts on DTR and music in general.
So excited for this
Dude is that Obama?
