Yes, on this thread I am finally making a post about A lot Like Birds. If you’ve ever heard this band, then you know that they are really progressive and are starting to get very well acclaimed within the hardcore scene. The reason this has been happening is mostly because of the fact that they have Kurt Travis (former vocalist for Dance Gavin Dance!) in their band now, but before that they had Michael Franzino doing vocals and he does a great job. Since this thread is one that gives free and legal albums away, a lot like birds put their first album out as a temporary free download on their bandcamp: http://alotlikebirds.bandcamp.com/album/plan-b.
The song I put as a sampler to the album is my personal favorite song on the cd ‘When the Wolf is Counting Sheep.” It is truly an impressive track, it goes across all kinds of styles, from a Fall of Troy-esque intro, to a traditional skramz feel, all the way to a saxophone solo that reminds me a lot of bands like Mars volta or streetlight manifesto, and the song just changes even more from there. Truly it is a great song with some great lyrics, and a very progressive feel. I highly recommend this album, and this is only for a limited time, so do it fast.
