The Rosebuds, The Love Language, The Preakness @ The Earl (12/01/08)


The Rosebuds

Last Monday night’s show at The Earl was a really good one. The Preakness did a typically solid set. The Love Language were nice live, although they are bit too conservative/old-school country-ish for my tastes. The Rosebuds‘ live show was thoroughly enjoyable and fun, and they appeared to have quite a fanbase in the ATL. Here are a ton of pics and videos:

Monday Night In The A: The Rosebuds

Last year I had bought The Rosebuds 2007 album called Night Of The Furies, but after casually listening to it once, I put the CD in a pile with lots of other CDs and I never stumbled across it again for about a year. Before I drove up to New York back in September of this year for ATP, I started going through my library looking for CDs to listen to in my vehicle due to the lack of digital media player options. I found Night Of The Furies and ended up jamming it again on my journey and really fell in love with it. It is interesting how listening to different media can determine what you choose to hear. I recently picked up their newest, Life Like, and while it has taken me a little while to warm up to it, I’m starting to fall for it too, so I’m excited about the show tonight. The bill is also stacked with two top notch openers, fellow Raleigh, NC’s The Love Language and Atlanta’s The Preakness. Pine Magazine posted an interview with The Rosebuds and here’s some audio and video to get you hyped up for tonight:
