The nonsensical ponderings of Eric Frisch...

I'm a bit of a music lover.  Anyone who's spent time on this blog knows that, in reality, that's a gross understatement.  Music is an enormous part of me, and one of the things I enjoy very much is listening to new music.  That said... occasionally I find a new band or record to be so simply outstanding that I have to share it here.  Such is the case today 

"The Fold" is a band that I already knew was sweet.  Their first CD (which was called "This Too Shall Pass") is great, and from what I've heard, their live show is pretty awesome too.  So there really wasn't any doubt that I'd be buying their new record, "Secrets Keep You Sick".  Here it is:



Well I got it a couple days ago, and it's honestly about 100 times better than I even thought it would be (keeping in mind that I already expected it to be good).  The band has grown tremendously since their first record, both lyrically and musically.  I've liked them since the beginning, but The Fold has become a really great band in the last couple of years.  So to all of you out in internet land... if you like good, solid rock music (this isn't nearly as heavy as a lot of the stuff I listen to), then you must check out this CD.  One of the best I've heard in quite a while.  Here are a couple quick clips to whet your appetite (click on a track to listen):
