cincy's got major talent

so i have a brand spanking new obsession. bands from good ol' cincinnati. yes the town of cornhole and goetta and three ways ((the non sexual ones, perv)) finally has something to be proud of music wise.

until recently i thought the only bands that existed in cincy were sweaty potbellied men playing banjos to bluegrass and oldies. turns out, i am wrong.

numero uno obsession: close to home. ((thats their name)). now i know when it comes to music looks shouldn't matter. but let's face it, the world's imperfect and good looks reign as king. yes friends, close to home is a gorgeous band. but they can also rock hard. very hard. they have a sound like boys like girls, the fray, etc. with a little punch kicked in there every now and then. and when i mean "punch" you know i really mean "screaming". so of course they're a favorite of mine. they should be yours too: myspace.com/cth

another obsession: the upset victory. now cth rocks hard but the upset victory has a bit more fire in their songs. they're not hardcore deathcore screamo though don't worry. they just have what can only be defined as fire. their songs have hooks and amazing lyrics which will implant themselves in your brain for days. myspace.com/theupsetvictory

final obsession: a decade to die for. yeah yeah yeah. technically they're not from cincy, they're from the aquariam's home, newport kentucky. they remind me of a tackle box. you can't listen for less than thirty seconds without getting hit by tons of lively hooks. another band whose songs you'll be screaming as you skip down your school's hallways. well... maybe thats something i only do. either way, they're your new love. myspace.com/adecadetodiefor

note to michiganians: don't worry. you are neeeext. are you ready? (:

much love,
sallee ann <3
