Pennywise – Reason To Believe [2008]
After the release of Anti-Flags album just a few days ago, this will be the second major punk release this week. If you’re a punk you’re bound to know Pennywise. They have put out modern punk classics such as “Fu** Authority”, “Alien” and “Society”. I saw them back in 2004 (along with Anti-Flag as well come to think of it) which was a cool experience (nothing like the mosh pit in a punk gig… except for maybe a Slayer pit). Pennywise haven’t released an album since 2005’s “The Fuse”. Its been a long 3 year wait for Pennywise fans but finally its here. This just got pred a few minutes ago, so I haven’t heard it yet myself, but I hope you enjoy it. Pennywise is releasing this album as a free download through Myspace records btw 
Pennywise is an American punk rock band that was formed in 1988, and is named after the monster It from the Stephen King novel, It. Since Pennywise’s 1991 self-titled debut, the band had released an album every two years on Epitaph Records, a label owned by Bad Religion guitarist Brett Gurewitz. To date, Pennywise have released eight full-length studio albums, one live album, two EPs and one DVD. A new album, Reason To Believe, will be released on March 25, 2008 for free through a partnership between MySpace, and Textango, a mobile music distributor.

these guys lost my respect as a ‘punk’ group year ago when they started doing video game soundtracks. Fail. Check out D.I. they actually stood the test of time (and are of a similar sound to old pennywise so if a like em check em’ out.)
@m0:
really? Then you shouldn’t respect all the great punk bands that were included on the Tony Hawk soundtracks either, which is ridiculous.
@m0:
You are officially a moron
hell yes.
@m0
‘punk’ rockers get bills too.
Sweet. I agree, keep the punkrock albums coming. yea m0 your a bit of a loser if the only reason u stop liking a great band is because some of their songs are on videogames.
yeah, thx for posting

N.E.R.D. – In Search Of… [2002]
Album Cover:
http://img519.imageshack.us/img519/3698/nerdinsearchofkf4.jpg
N.E.R.D. are nothing if they’re not clever, and they brilliantly constructed a back-story to accompany their debut album, In Search Of… As every rock critic in the Western world has said in his review of the album, they originally released the record in Europe, then decided it was crap, withdrew it, re-recorded it with a live band, and then released it worldwide. Now this story is probably true — as the first album by the band driven by the powerhouse production team the Neptunes (though these are not interchangeable terms, as they went to great lengths to make clear in the promo interviews), there was a lot riding on this record, so it had better be right — but it certainly helped them get valuable press, elevating this record to a near-event level.
So, is In Search Of… worth the hoopla? Well, pretty much. Musically, it’s a lively affair, breaking free of the signature approximated-Prince beats, as they borrow heavily from classic soul, breakbeat aesthetics, and postmodern alt-culture, tying it together with live beats. It pretty much deliberately does everything that most modern rap does not do, and it’s hard not to embrace it for that very fact. Alas, there are flaws, mainly in the raps, which are hardly as nimble as the music; actually, they’re rather clumsy and embarrassing, especially since they attempt to cover “socially relevant” issues (i.e., politicians are equated with strippers).
Choruses that croon that “She needs me/Because I’m the sh*t” are hard to stomach, no matter how supple the music is (or how ironic the delivery), but if you can ignore that, In Search Of… does provide genuine musical thrills. Although, be forewarned — it’s easy to overrate this record simply because it deviates from the norm at a time when nobody deviates from the norm or has deviated from the norm in years. With better lyrics and a little less smirking hipsterism, it could have been the record it was intended to be, but as it stands, it’s still a pretty terrific listen and one of the most adventurous, intriguing hip-hop albums in a long, long time. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide

Does anyone have the 2 bonus tracks? I can’t find them anywhere and I have read on the net that they are two of the best songs
Here is the Free link Textango is providing for the album – missing tracks 15 & 16 (BTW only available for another week or so.)
http://promos.myspace.com/download.ashx?pid=1&did=1
Enjoy!
~ Lovies Amanda
Is that link including tracks 15 and 16 or excluding them?
i have 3 versions of the album… which gives a grand total of 2 bonus tracks… i have “next in line” and “just one more day” if anybody has “one nation” hook it up and i will give ya the other 2 bonus tracks
johhny: Can you uploud somewhere these 2 bonus tracks?
yea, Johnny, go give us those songs^^ at least “Next In Line”, since one can already download “Just One More Day” directly off their myspace site for free. But don’t live in the US, so I am no able to write a text message to textandgo (or whatever it’s named) and receive “Next In Line”, because this feature is exclusively enabled for US-Americans.
“just one more day” was the textango offer… they messed up with the text thing and just gave it for free… check your fav torrent sites say mininova in the new few hours… i will post the retail cd rip with track 15 “next in line”
Johnny, and?
Let me guess we gotta go buy the CD to get “Next in Line” and buy the vinyl to get “One Nation”
http://www.mininova.org/tor/1273201
sorry i crashed out haha anyways enjoy!
thanks alot why 256 cbr instad of vbr or 320
my buddy ripped it and knows very little about ripping… if i was ripping it i wouldve posted a flac version… it dosent matter cuz im borrowing his cd by the weekend anyways… when i get it i will post a lame V0 rip or a flac rip
How can we get one nation on the net? Thats the only one I need now
Johnny, thank you so much for the song! It’s great!
When does the vinyl with One Nation come out?
It is already out: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=300210341722
When is someone gonna put it on the net?
one nation? one nation? one nation?
I’d love to have it too, but I don’t know if somebody’s gonna record it from LP and upload the song for us.
what happened that vo rip or flac rip that was mentioned would be up this past weekend
http://rapidshare.com/files/104365518/Pennywise-R_eason_T_o_Be_lieve-2008-VAG-neutek.rar

http://www.badongo.com/file/8488787
link to “Next In Line”
sadly only 256 kbps and not 320 ;/
still one of the best songs on the record, imo
sorry guys havent checked this lately… got the import cd so for the sake of keeping things consistent im gonna post a 320kbps rip of the import cd and as a bonus throw on “just one more day” just cuz so many people have the 320 rip it only makes sense to put that up… on a sidenote if anybody just wants the import cd reply in this thread and we will set somethin up
http://www.mininova.org/tor/1307706
posted a deluxe edition as i call it… comes with nfo,m3u and sfv
tracks 1 to 15 are from my import cd which includes “next in line” and track 16 is the myspace bonus “just one more day”
thanks johnny
no problem guys enjoy!!
awesome album, i luv it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hello guys!
Anyone have the “One Nation” bonus track for download?
thank you!
Just got the vinyl by mail. One nation is a solid track. I will try to rip it, but I’ve never done that before.
So I just rip it… It’s a poor rip done by plugging my turntable directly in my computer… I post it so everybody can hear this great song, but someone will have to do a better job.
http://www.megaupload.com/fr/?d=KN7JNSU7
good job simon for making the effort to rip that… its much appreciated!! i can likely help ya with the ripping issues so reply in this thread and we can set something up!
hey simon that vinyl version ya bought comes with a free download of the entire album including “next in line” and “one nation” use that voucher/coupon and download the album then post us a link where we can grab the tracks… we would all appreciate it a lot
hum… there’s one problem… I don’t where the f**k is that coupon. I tought it was just to download the same digital version that I already own via myspace. I feel so foolish at the moment!
Ok I just found that coupon and they’re not talking about downloading the album. It’s telling me that I can download a bonus song if I send a ”text message” to textango. so I don’t really understand…
hmmmm from what i read its suppose to be you can download the whole album once you bought the vinyl… as in you get a digital version of the vinyl ya bought… the textango thing was for us people who got it thru myspace… the bonus track is called “just one more day” but your textango option for a bonus song might be diff…
new rip. much better than the last one
http://www.megaupload.com/fr/?d=0Y2IL42T
yes much better!!! big thanks simon
Better quality….. when???
Simon, it’s really great! Thank you so much, I’ve been looking for this song for ages!
Thanks for One Nation dude ! It’s really great ! I’ve got Next In line but I’ve been looking for One Nation for so long ! Cheers from Peru ! PENNYWISE RULES !! my favorite band ever !
