Today’s free download is from the mighty Sev Statik. For those that don’t know Sev 1) you have been missing out and 2) he is one the key members of the underground hip-hop super-crew known as The Tunnelrats. Those familiar with Tunnelrats will know what to expect from Sev Statik; the dude is total underground hip-hop. His rhymes are complex and introspective, the beats are intricate and kind of grimy. There is alot of focus here on ministry, samples, and artistic hip-hop. Everything you could need…

The Silver LP is one of Sev Statik’s first solo ventures, and last week he announced that not would most of his library be on… Continue reading

This week your free download is being provided by the good people at Rock For Life. This week they made all of their many sampler compilations available for free download. Considering they starting putting these mixes together in the early 90s, their are a lot of songs to choose from. Granted, you will not have heard of the majority of the bands included, but this is a time to experience news……so suck it up and try some new music!

Seriously, Rock For Life is a great cause, and this free music is a cool way to step back and see some of the impact they have had by being able to bring together so many… Continue reading

Ok, so this isnt one of our regular Free Download posts, but hang with me for a second.  About a year or so ago, we started to hear through the grapevine that one of the former Tooth & Nail higher-ups had left the label, and was looking at starting his own label.  As time progressed, we also heard that he was build an entirely ministry based label, one that would attract artists who be completlty be seeking Christ first, then their music.  Lastly, we also heard that all the music that would be released on this label would be the pay-what-you-want model.

Monday, that label hit full swing with the launching of their website.  It is called Come&Live!, and it… Continue reading

This week’s free download comes from folk/pop duo He Is We. The tunes are a collection of sweet little love songs and musings, all done of the backdrop of acoustic guitars and sleepy vocals. While the duo is now on to full-lengths and EPs, they were nice enough to share some of their earlier ideas with us in this cool little collection.

There are 13 tracks in all here, so this is really quite a steal.

So the download below will take you to the band’s Bandcamp.com site, and further instructions can be had there. Enjoy.

I have really been trying to go for quality and not quantity nwith these free downloads lately. Last week I introduced you to Bosh (you are welcome), and this week a free download of Mr J. Medeiros‘ The Art of Broken Glass EP. I have to say that that the jazz infused, tounge-twisting style of hip-hop on full display in The Art of Broken Glass EP is defiantly my favorite kind of hip-hop. I always seem to fall all over this stuff. The music on this EP is just so SMOOTH, slightly a throw back to early 90s hip-hop, but with a lot of modern senseablities.

Mr J. Medeiros was one… Continue reading | 3 Comments

So, Bosh is a new find for me. They are out of the UK, which is why they have elluded me thus far, but Im trying to make up for lost time now. They are this perfect mix of progressive rock, pop, and hard rock. They write HUGE songs that build and build and then take turns you would never suspect. This is a must have download for anybody into smart, interesting rock music.

Lucky enough, Bosh put their older album up for free, so you can see what I am so psyched for. I know you are gonna dig this! Enjoy!

Back in July of 2009, I introduced you guys to Austin rock band Jets Under Fire. They play a all-over-the-board gamut of rock, from trippy atmospheric stuff, to mellow industrial, to straight rock’n'roll. They have released 3 EPs for free through their website, I posted EP1 and EP2 previously, so here we are with EP3.

EP3 is more like EP2 than anything, it sounds like these guys have been listening to a lot of Kings Of Leon and Snow Patrol. The music is more straight forward than past efforts, but there is still a look of atmosphere and depth. My only complaint is that there is only 3 songs!… Continue reading

We are back on regular updates this week, and so Wednesday brings our free download, and I thought it would be cool to start things off with a Holdfast Records compilation. See You On The Other Side… Holdfast Records 2006-2009 is a chronicling of all the cool metal, hardcore, and hard rock that underground label Holdfast has been offering over the last three years. There is a little metalcore, some southern rock, and even a little electronica in there for good measure. Here is the tracklisting:

01. In Irons – Trust Not in Man (5:27)
02. Alcina – A Fist Full of… Continue reading
