Age Sixteen & Wren Lloyd Split





I just snagged this shit from Stoking The Roots. This split is from two of Baltimore's most popular acts, although Age Sixteen recently decided to call it quits. In case you have never heard of either of these bands, Age Sixteen was an Emo/Screamo band who had song structure similar to the European screamo bands that are becoming more popular, two of which being Suis La Lune and La Quiete, while Wren Lloyd (formally known as Odepius) is a grindcore outfit who play dirty music and put on extravagant live performances (wear a dress, get dick naked, that kinda thing). I have no idea what the track names are, except that the last song is a cover of Sunny Day Real Estate's "Seven". Overall the album is pretty cool: I like the Wren Lloyd songs more than the songs on their previous releases, but even though Age Sixteen's songs clearly show musical growth and is a testament to their song writing abilities, this is not my favorite release of theirs(not being a dick, but you can't really beat the demo, sorry). I'm sure you can pick up a copy from either of the bands' websites, and I hope that you do so. And for the record, no need to cry too hard over Age Sixteen's demise, there is a post A16 band in the works. Below is their split.

Word.

мища



мища is 2 parts Vikings! and 1 part Drug Money. I play drums in this band, and we have been around for about a year. At first it was just James and I, but then Alex joined the band after like 3 shows or something. We did a New England tour this summer and got to play with some really great bands like Pathos, C'est La Guerre, The Sharpest, and We Were Skeletons. Our name was supposed to mean "bear", but when it was written to was written incorrectly. So when you write our name it dosn't mean anything, but if you say it (its pronounced Mischa) it does mean "bear". Before we went on hiatus we played our last show at David Krasner's house with Pianos Become the Teeth, Age Sixteen, Wren Lloyd, and Pansori. We also got the chance to play with Matsuri and Moldar(RIP) on their summer tour. That shit was bomb. We are trying to play a show or two when I go home in December, and we are getting ready to book another tour for this summer. We were going to go to Europe but its starting to look like we won't have enough money. If you have a house or can get shows, wherever, and you wouldn't mind us stopping by you should talk to us on our myspace. Before I left we recorded two songs for a 7" split with Bears!, which is going to be put out on Bear Records next year. You can buy all of our stuff from Unity Through Harmony, and you can get our mini disc from Noise Park Activities, who we still owe like twenty five dollars.
Heres a video from a while back in Hampton's Garage.
