We love Tumblr, but we decided to do something new. Check out the new site!

The talented and gracious gentlemen of State and Madison are working on releasing their first ever record. They’ve had a Kickstarter up for the last few weeks to help fund it and are in the final five days. They’ve nearly met their goal, but could still use a little bit more! These guys are one of the hardest working bands we know and all of us at SFAS would love to see them meet their goal. Every little bit helps, so dig around your Christmas loot for a couple extra bucks and please send it their way!
SkyCast Episode Five: Terminated

Our final episode of SkyCast features two of our favorite bands: Archie Powell & the Exports and The Noise FM. We got cozy with these guys to talk mostly about their upcoming Noise For Toys show they’re playing on December 16th with The Scissors and State & Madison at Beat Kitchen. The guys also discussed their love of Bush (the band), SkyNet, and what not to do while at shows.
Have you heard about Hidden Hospitals yet? These guys have been around for almost three months, released an EP, have played a total of five shows (their most recent had them opening for Hot Rod Circuit at Bottom Lounge) and released a video for their song ‘Swan Dive’.
Hidden Hospitals is composed of former members of New York-based bands Damiera and Kiss Kiss. Their sound is a delicious blend of chugging guitars and carefully crafted and haunting lyrics. If you’re still not over The Fireship’s breakup earlier this year, Hidden Hospitals are a very good surrogate.
The band is deciding to take things slow and are going into hibernation for the next couple of months to work on tightening their sound and work on new material. Before they play their next show, brush up on their music by clicking here and nabbing yourself a digital copy of EP 001.
