Big Money

by Noiseheads

"Big Money," was the first track recorded with Steve Albini. He called it a rager after we played for him. This energetic, raw, and anthemic track shows our band going full steam ahead: There's no such thing as moderation. Overkill is just sedation.

by Blend

Hey! We're Blend, a rock band from Ohio, & this is our song "Me, Myself and I."

Feelings of fear & self-doubt can creep up, even when we're at high points in our lives.
