One of the pioneers of the emo-rock genre, it is probably fair to call Jeremy Engik (melo)dramatic. His 2006 album World Waits is has a huge, sweeping sound that can only be described as drama in instrumental form. With rumors of Sunny Day Real Estate once again getting the band...

NEW UPDATED (time sensitive) INFO (at bottom of post)
It's still a secret, so keep your voice low... but Derek Webb has found a "loophole." We're still trying to piece it all together, but Webb seems to have had some dispute with his record label over a song on the album...

My wife and I once spent a week in Ireland. After days full of hiking and exploring we'd spend our evenings in warm neighborhood pubs sipping from pint glasses, making small talk and waiting for the music to begin. At some point during the evening a few men and women...
