ROB SEZ: I'm a new fan of Five Eight, even though the Athens, GA collective has been around more than a quarter century. I'd say the band, fronted by Mike Mantione, is a hybrid of alt. rock, hardcore, and emo. If you like GBV and/or Superchunk, I recommend you check out Five Eight. Their music is not my usual cup of tea. But after several listens, I see why a National Public Radio blogger put Five Eight first on his list of "Top Five Bands That Should Be Way Bigger Than They Are". Stream the new single "Kids" (below) from the band's forthcoming album Songs for St. Jude.

Classic, original Five-Eight to me is 1989 Live at WREK "Passive-aggressive".
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip! Cheers.
DeleteWell, hello friends! I have both of our cassette releases digitized and I'll get them up on Dropbox this week if anyone's interested. I'm so pleased anyone cares about five eight at all! Thanks for your kind words!
