We have a new contributor!

I would like to keep the site fresh and the posts flowing. Besides Natasha and Chris, Adam F. from Canada will also write some reviews/articles for My Endless Minutes. He has a cool melodic punk/post-hardcore band named Landslider. Listen to it! Welcome Adam!

We Were Skeletons - We Were Skeletons

01. Drawn From The Houses I've Burnt
02. Exposure To Heavy Metal Causes Whatever
03. Pudge Paws
04. It's Like Science
05. Kids
06. Her Stomach Is A Lioness
07. Bruce Willis Is Dead The Whole Time
08. This Destroys Us
09. Well, I Did Spend A Year In College

Pennsylvania's We Were Skeletons play a brand of screamy, chaotic hardcore should appeal to long-time fans of the genre. The album was recorded with Will Killingsworth (Orchid, Ampere) at Dead Air Studios and is the band’s strongest material to date. Imagine City of Caterpillar, Kidcrash, Off Minor and Hot Cross, and Comadre rolled into one. Definitely one of the best releases of 2010. I figured a repost was in order since the album has been officially released. Do yourself a favor and pick up a copy. You won't be diasppointed!

Suis La Lune - Riala

01. Cornea
02. Stop Motion
03. Wishes & Hopes
04. Hands Are For Helping
05. In Confidence
06. Remorse
07. All That Meant Something
08. Riala
09. Sense In A Broken Dialogue
10. One And All, Every Bit

Hell yeah. Here's the album from Suis La Lune. I know this has been on several blogs already, but I decided to do this post and give Riala a proper review. Suis La Lune is a band from Stockholm and Gothengurg, Sweden. It's been almost four years since the band released Quiet Pulls The Strings, and Suis La Lune's sound has evolved a great deal since their last album. Suis La Lune has added a calm, melodic, and almost poppy texture to their sound that adds a layer of complexity to their trademark frenzied, tense, and chaotic sound. Suis La Lune's new album is phenomenal and the band's hiatus has paid off for the band. The ten songs on Riala are tense, melodic, and are at times catchy, which really offsets the band's frenzied and chaotic moments. Amazing album. Fans of Funeral Diner, Pianos Become The Teeth, The Saddest Landscape and Kidcrash need to give this a listen. Highly Recommended!

02. C'est Trop Tard
03. C'est Pas Ringard

Cromwell O was a great French band with ex-members of Anomie and Leka Thcipa. They played intense screamo/emo-violence and broke up in 2004. Sadly they have only one album named 'Dance Ce Soir, Soumet Toi Demain'. If you like French bands and chaotic screamo, you must check this out!

In their part they play post-metal combined with the elements of sludge, ambient and drone. If you don't know these bands, you should listen to this split.
