KOD 61 - Timeshares/Captain We're Sinking Split 7"
Timeshares bring a lot of what one would expect from an ex-The Knockdown band to their side of the split. Tight playing, some noodling guitar riffs, some staccato ones, and an overall knack for bringing an extra catchy chorus to your ears without beating you over the head with it. They're talented dudes and they know just how to get you feeling good and singing along. On the flip side of this split, Captain We're Sinking tear through a couple of tracks of vocal driven punk. Sometimes fast, sometimes plodding and head-nodding, Captain We're Sinking have enough tricks up their sleeves to open a magic school, but their too busy writing great vocal lines that will get fused to your brain stem.

KOD 62 - Forget Me-Not Split featuring: Senders, Little League, Backpocket, Small Talk
This 4-way split showcases the powerful resurgence of bands influenced by the 90's emo scene. Little League's rocking mid-tempo romp brings to mind Texas is the Reason, Small Talk's noodly tendencies and sometimes cracking vocals calls to mind the Promise Ring, Senders' heaviness and sense of melody is reminiscent of Hum and Backpocket sound like an amalgamation of all three. Anyone who was a fan of emo before it was about "cutting" and haircuts will totally dig this.

KOD 63 - Teenage Softies/Stolen Parts split 7"
This split 7" features two new projects from the members of not-quite-totally-defunct-yet KOD alumni Monikers. Side A is a super snotty blast of female/male duel vocaled pop punk in the shape of Orlando's Teenage Softies. Side B is a more mature approach to the same idea as Brooklyn's Stolen Parts trade in their teenage angst for a more dynamic and layered approach. Depending on what kind of mood you're in, this 7" has something for everyone.
