I’ve known my friend Alex for about thirteen years or so. Dang. That makes us seem old. We first met back when I was still in high school and Alex was in an acoustic band called Five O’Clock People. Anyone remember them? Sure you do. But you may remember them from years later when they were signed to a record label and put out a record called The Nothing Venture.  Memory getting clearer?  Well, guess what peeps?  They are back and in my opinion, better than ever.  Temper Temper is the newest EP from the boys in Five O’Clock People and it’s without a doubt, a must have EP.  The writing is amazing, instrumentation is awesome and the originality is nothing short of what you would expect from these guys.

And here’s the thing. It’s not just because I really like Alex, Drew and Pat, although I’m currently working on talking Alex into moving into the house next door to me, but this EP is ridiculous. And you know I don’t say that about many records. Seriously, have I ever steered you wrong when it comes to blindly purchasing a record based solely on my opinion?

So here’s what we are going to do. We’re all going to buy this record. That’s right. Every one of us is going to purchase this record and write a review of it right here in the comments.  Now, here’s the tricky part.  This record is kind of hard to get right now.  They are currently sorting out some distribution plan, so here’s what you need to do.  Email glassjoerecords@yahoo.com and tell then you want a record.  They will take some of your money and then send you a CD like the one I got yesterday.  Now, this isn’t some ‘Oh well, Brody’s just doing this because he’s friends with them so I don’t have to do it’ kind of thing.  Seriously.  Get.  This.  Record.  Then come here and tell me (and them) what you think.

Sound like a plan?  Leave a comment in the comments when you’ve ordered it, and once everyone starts getting their copies we will revisit this post for reviews.  If you’ve already heard the record or already have it, go ahead and start the reviewing.

Ready?  Go.
