Current Obsessions 8

1. Cartel

I've been in love with Cartel since I heard The Fortunate. I love every single song Cartel has ever put out - from Wasted to Save Us. I saw them in July with All Time Low and it was one of the best shows I've been too. Cycles was released last month. I love every single track. Each one is just as good as the track before. Some of my favorites are Only You and It Still Remains. Throughout this month, Cartel will be touring with This Providence and The Summer Set. In December, they will be playing with Motion City Soundtrack and Say Anything at different shows.

2. Erik Hassle

"It's music about things you think of when you're going to sleep..." Sweden pop/soul artist, Erik Hassle is signed to Island and Universial Republic Records. His first single Hurtful has made its way onto the the Swedish and U.K. charts. Although, his entire album hasn't been released, you can listen to some of his songs on his myspace. My favorite is Don't Bring Flowers.

3. Nothing But Shoes

GUYS GUYS GUYS. WE HAVE A BAND AMONG THE BUZZNET FAMILY!!! First, add Katie's Buzznet then check out her band, Nothing But Shoes. It's kinda quiet since they recorded it on their own, but other than that it sounds pretty good. If you like Blink 182, Paramore, All Time Low, The Ramones, New Found Glory, and the old Fall Out Boy, give them a listen. I'm in love with One Way. Keep up the great work Katie and best of luck! :D

4. Callahan

Hailing from Ohio, members of Callahan have been best friends since childhood. If you like The Bigger Lights or Red Car Wire, check out Callahan! They have recieved positive reviews from The Daily Chorus, Purevolume, AP Magazine, Fearless Radio, Absolute Punk, and many more. Listen to The Dive, Dress to Impress, This One For the History Books, and Face the Day.

5. We Are Birds

VS.

We Are Birds is one of my favorite Brighten songs. Today, someone sent me a link of Mindy White's cover. I didn't even know she could sing.. :O Haha. Her voice is so pretty! I'm not really sure which version I like more.. They are both equally amazing. Listen here. Which version do you perfer?

Are you obsessed yet?
