Hey! Glad to see this is finally catching on. It was mentioned (by someone other than me) a while back... but you know, may have been ahead of its time.

Early Lines
Hate The Living, Love The Dead

Early Lines
Pure Health EP



http://www.sendspace.com/file/dy7017

Seth Sherman, Dan Doyle, and Christopher Mosley started Early Lines in 1999 in their hometown of Plano, Texas. The trio splits playing guitar and singing evenly. Over the 6 years that they were together (I believe they broke up in June of 2005) they independently recorded and released 3 albums (engineered by Albini and Weston at EA) on their own Deep East Records. Since breaking up, Chris Mosley has started Nouns Group, who are also based out of Plano. Dan Doyle has relocated to Austin, Texas and has started his own solo project under the moniker 'Daniel Francis Doyle'. They both have websites and should be checked out. Great stuff.

I've uploaded Hate The Living, Love the Dead, their 2nd full-length- recorded in 2001, and the Pure Health EP, their 3rd and final album- recorded in 2003.

Please enjoy.

These LPs sound like they might be extremely interesting listens. Can you tell me what bands Early Lines remind you of?

Thanks!

They're absolutely wonderful records.

For fans of Minutemen, Shellac, Mission of Burma, Fugazi.. fairly ambiguous influences these days. They don't really "sound like" any of these, but you can certainly hear the elements in their music. I guess their biggest strong point would be their songwriting. Considering all three members do an equal amount of writing- it's extremely impressive how cohesive and consistent they are. They have an incredibly unique and honest, yet familiar sound.. if that makes any sense.

Blah.. I'm really bad at describing bands. Just give 'em a listen.

Come on, you stingy bastards, quit hoggin' up all the bandwidth and let somebody else have a go!

Oh, and the lyrics.. be sure to listen to the shit that they talk about. I'm not sure if you guys are familiar with the crazy heroin epidemic that took place in Plano, TX in the late nineties, but they grew up in the middle of it. That taken into account, they provide a lot of really personal and intelligent subject matter all throughout their records. The more you listen to it and piece it all together, the more you appreciate the genuine qualities of these guys.

I can't recommend this shit enough.

Early Lines is pretty much the greatest band ever. I've been obsessed with the heroin story in those records for awhile.

Seth Sherman played at SHQ on Friday, I didn't go but I think there was a link to a myspace somewhere. Probably sound samples.

Most of Early Line's reunion show, lots of Nouns Group and some Daniel Francis Doyle videos up at thedentoncatalogue.com

And I'd be really suprised if he cared, but Chris Mosley posts very infrequently on here.

Same! The stuff they pour out about it is some of the most moving shit I've ever heard.

Here're some links to the related projects.

So I was doing a search for an OOP album I've never heard called Brand Abrasive Sound Structure, by a band called Taylor, I can't find it anywhere. But the MP3's may or may not be available at this site:

http://rock81-91-mp3.lyricstemple.com/

Now I've never heard of this site and it doesn't seem safe at all. So I can't bring myself to

Have any of you seen this site before?

Is it safe to download from?
