It’s been almost two years since we’ve heard a release from You, Me, And Everyone We Know, and within that time, we’ve seen vocalist Ben Liebsch take his life back into his own hands and deal with his issues surrounding addiction and depression. Well, he’s come back swinging in 2015 with the release of Dogged, a six-song EP showcasing a side to YMAEWK listeners haven’t seen before.
Dogged kicks off with the short and loud “Raise Them Bones”, allowing listeners to take in what the rest of the EP is sure to offer. It’s followed by my personal favourite, “Does It Amaze Thee?”, a track that showcases the EP’s best. Featuring a catchiness that masks lyrical content like “I’m chewing off the skin from my fingernails, hoping some half-studded drug is going to tip the scales” and “I’d take a tub full of bleach over a life with this”, it’s a musical representation of Liebsch’s experiences and is by far the most real we’ve seen him.

What do you get when you take one of the post-hardcore scene’s staple acts and have them work with one of pop-punk’s fastest rising bands? You get Senses Fail and Man Overboard’s brilliant new split, a four-song EP guaranteed to leave you feeling both nostalgic and impressed.
Starting off the EP is Man Overboard’s “One Fixed Point”, a track that blends the authentic pop-punk the band are known for while incorporating the occasional heavy element. It’s followed by their cover of Senses Fail’s “Cute When You Scream”, which is probably the release’s best showing. While it sounds quite similar to the original version, the band are able to give the track a rawness the original couldn’t quite harness, an element especially noticeable in the vocals.

Young Guns have announced they’ll be releasing the music video for their latest single, “Speaking In Tongues”, on March 2nd.

Sound System are a ska band from Chatham, Ontario. The three-piece, who are currently promoting their latest single, “Cabeza Da La Seta”, are steadily making a name for themselves within the local scene, and I recently able to speak with drummer Josh Gyssels about the band’s upcoming album, their musical influences and their plans for the rest of 2015.
Howwould you describe Sound System’s music to those who have never listened to theband before?
I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to say 100%, but I guess I’d want to say fun, happy and, of course, a little badass. Why? The Johnstones. For [myself they] were a huge influence on me when we were writing and forming this band. The songs we’ve recorded and produced albums with always make me feel happy, go-lucky and a little badass. Just like The Johnstones.
However, it’s funny… You asked me to describe this to people who “don’t know the band”. The only reason I say this is funny and a little difficult to answer is because my description of this band and these tune isn’t based off my opinion. It’s based off how I have seen the music affect my friends and people I’ll never probably meet again, so you can imagine my answer is always changing.
How did the band come together?
Well, at the time of the band forming, we called ourselves “SNAFU” and had a jam space with my old roommate, Nick Grande. We later changed [our] name to “Soul Of The Soundsystem” and the band ever since then has consisted of the three members we currently have: John O’Rourke, Colin Sinclair and myself.
We’ve also shortened the name one last time to just “Sound System”, as people would continually mistake it for something really strange. No, really, some really weird names have been stated… For example, “Sounds Of The Solar System” happened at a show in a boutique shop.
