Quick Notes: Shoes and Socks Off, Guards + Tidal Arms


*Shoes And Socks Off have posted a short message for the New Year entitled "Casio nosebleed"... "By 3am everyone was asleep. I drank a lot of milk last night, and stayed up until about 7am making a song on my laptop. Slowly getting to grips with some software. Gonna make a lot of crazy shit I rex. Gonna record the next SASO album myself. Its about half written. Two thousand and fucking eleven."

*Guards, the new project from The Willowz' Richie James Follin, are featured as Spinner.com's "MP3 of the Day". You can download "Swimming After Dark" for FREE HERE. Check out what Follin had to say about the song...

"I wrote this song about a maniac friend being in love with a girl. It follows their story without ever resolving, it just kind of revolves around a night and everything that brought them there. We tried to give the song more of a live recording vibe and [make it] super-driving to convey the sense of urgency within the story. We recorded the drums and guitar live in upstate New York and the rest I did at St. Marks studio, which is what I call my studio at my apartment on St. Marks in Manhattan." - singer/guitarist Richie James Follin

*Tidal Arms have posted a brand new track available for streaming or download via their official Bandcamp page HERE!! "Social Landlord" is the first track from their upcoming debut album The Sun Exploding, and we here at EIS can't wait the full length release.
