Shiner / The Life and Times

[darshun]

Shiner is one of my favorite bands of all time.  They've released 4 albums, an EP, and a bunch of 7"s.  Shiner is a band that can be best described as "Midwest Rock," or heavy alternative.  If you haven't heard of Shiner, do yourself a favor and check out the track "The Egg" @ http://myspace.com/shiner

The Life and Times is spearheaded by ex-Shiner singer/guitarist/songwriter, Allen Epley.  They have 1 album and a few EPs.  They're about to drop a new record called, "Tragic Boogie," but are shopping the record to labels.  http://myspace.com/thelifeandtimes

Shiner is one of my favorite bands too. Very underrated   

Castor is great too  http://www.myspace.com/castorband93

Castor is another great band, in fact the recent Deftones -x- zip tape/file w/a few songs included "Carnival" by Castor...

Tracking Sounds Alone was also produced by none other than Paul Malinowski of Shiner fame

If yer a Failure fan, you would like Shiner, once you get into Shiner and get all comfy, you'll graduate to The LIfe and Times...

BTW, Shiner did some shows w/Failure back in the day...

[Deadradio]

Yeah, Shiner was the shit. Just listened to Lula Divinia the other day.

Are any of you Shiner Fans, fans of Houston?  Not the rapper/hip hopper...
