Blog to be closed.... for now.

Hey everyone,

So in recent weeks/months I've been getting complaints from the RIAA about what has been posted here. A number of albums that you used to find on this blog have been removed. Some of these include albums by Silverchair, Still Remains, Alexisonfire, and State of Shock, among others.

I do not want to give up on Micks & Moshpits, but these developments make it hard to continue. That is why you haven't seen updates in a while. It's hard to stay motivated when this happens. At some point I will re-open the blog, but for now you won't see anything new until at least the new year.

Thanks to everyone who has followed the blog, been positive, and made this worth the time out of my day.

Hopefully this isn't the end. Thanks!

P.S. This message will stay up for a little while, but the blog will eventually be closed for public viewing until I'm ready to restart it.
P.P.S. Feel free to leave encouraging comments on this post or in the Comment Box. It will help motivate me to get this going again!
P.P.P.S. I'd also welcome the idea of adding extra contributors when I do restart the blog. Leave me a comment if interested and I'll contact you. Thanks!

SORRY!!

Hey everyone,

I'm SO sorry for the lack of updates. No updates in almost a month! I honestly feel bad about that. Life just gets in the way, you know? Anyways, please be patient and I plan on making a return to posting around August 1st.

Also, I will continue to do requests, but under one condition. There are many other blogs that do this, so I ask that you please keep your requests to CANADIAN content only. Not all my posts are Canadian, but again, other blogs are doing requests so I figure it'll be good to specialize a little. Thanks in advance!

Envy, The - Don't Let Go EP

Saw these guys a couple years ago when they were known as CROWNED KING (search in the blog for the last album under that name). Their sound is so different than when they started so many years ago, so a name change to The Envy is like a new beginning for them, I guess. Great collection on catchy tunes here. These guys are spot-on perfect live...they put on a great show. I wasn't the first to post this (props to Rust In Peace blog for doing it first), but this version is my own rip in high quality VBR.

New links!

Hey everyone,

So starting with the most recent post (40 Foot Echo), I added a new link to the bottom of the post. It says "Facebook" and when you click on it, it'll take you to the bands Facebook page. You can check out the stuff there, become a fan, whatever. I'm not sure how many people make use of the links, but I for one am a fan of well over 100 bands on FB already, so it's something I find cool.

Feel free to comment about it! Do you like it? Don't care at all?
Or don't comment....whatev! :P
