Meditations in Affinity: SOLICITUDE

3rd installment in a series curated to celebrate in DIY bands and the trials and wins we all experience or share in.
this time around highlighted are

BIGHAND//BIGKNIFE from Denton Texas
a staple in their scene. We see a progressive new Single "Sift" to hold us over until the next project.

ALMANAC MAN from Denver Colorado
from the ashes of Laurium this tweaked line up aims to make a name for themselves. Containing half of TGIC Recs, Brian Dooley and company are currently writing for whats next. Until then we have "Cold Bones"

we flip the 7 inch and have

EMMA GOLDMAN from Vancouver British Columbia
come blazing with one of their trademark chunky and pretty blown out emo dirges "Code Produced Passion" the epic ride empties into another Newer act's offering...

ABANDONCY from Kansas City Missouri
relatively new but like an iceburg have been hiding the bulk of the work for a forthcoming long play.
we end SOLICITUDE with "The Same" where at the midpoint hits a break neck wind down that will make you start it over.

The last two Meditations offerings are in the works and going swimmingly.
