Boys Life - Departures & Landfalls

Boy's Life is one of those emo bands that gets talked about a lot as being really influential. They're name dropped next to bands like Mineral, Sunny Day Real Estate and Christie Front Drive....unfortunately I find they're a band that people like to talk about, but not listen to. Which is too bad, because Departures & Landfalls is a fantastic record full of noisy, angular mid 90's emo, with a heavier edge to it that reminds of bands like Julia or Fugazi. Definitely check this out if you're a fan of any of the aforementioned bands. (Again, sorry there has been a lull in the posts lately. I say it a lot, but I'll try and put more time into this...unfortunately time has been in short supply as of late.)
