Greetings Earthlings, 

Happy Earth Day!! Be sure to do your part today and everyday to preserve our planet. Save the Bees, recycle, use reusable straws, and all that good stuff. 

Anyway, thats PSA #1 for today. On to our second PSA is that Folded Flags released a brand new track today called Amazons!! First off, I’m shocked they put this on Soundcloud. I didn't even know that was a thing anymore. I thought everyone either uploaded music to Spotify, Amazon or Apple music. Regardless, I listened to the song and it really exceeded my expectations. Like I was expecting it to a decent single, however, it blew me away. The sound is phenomenal, and the lyrics are sensational. When everything comes together, it makes you feel the emotion in the song. It has been a while since I had a song send chills all throughout my entire body. The last song to give me that type of strong feeling was Don’t Miss the Brakes by Dear Love. Before that, it was Don't Stop Believing by Journey*. 

(*To clarify: I mean like making your heart race, your adrenaline skyrocket, and basically giving you goosebumps all over your body. Don't get me wrong, I love music and it defiantly has some healing powers; however there are just very few songs that give me that intense feeling.)

This song is a 10/10!! I absolutely love it!! I love the direction they are taking with this new project and so far they are doing a FANTASTIC job!! I’m super excited to hear more tracks from these boys. I highly recommend checking out Amazons right now!! Start your week off right with some epic music:

Also random side note: You know I often wonder, do you think we will ever get the second Final Atonement album, Unknown? Hmm, I mean I hope so, because the teaser sounded amazing!! (and yes there is a teaser available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7eWBTdinnM. Yeah just like ACFS’s last album, I never got that one either. I know it’s been like two years since they sent the complementary album to which I never received. I’m still a little bitter about it. I mean come on, at least put it on iTunes so I can download it. It was a wicked album...just saying.) Then again we can’t be too mad, because Folded Flags is wicked awesome!! 

Anyway, while we wait for the new music, make sure you check out The Motions!! 

Start your weekend off right, and check it out TODAY!!

This is my first review for Another Youth in 2012 and I'm reviewing Folded Flags fantastic ep "Young Minds". I never expected to actually like it but as you can tell by listening to it, the guys have worked so hard to produce such an amazing record. As everyone knows the hardcore scene keeps growing and growing, in America, the UK and other parts of Europe. With every band they all have something new to offer, Folded Flags are definately one band with potential for 2012. If only they were UK based i'd definately go catch them at a show, but if your from Bad Neustadt / Bad Kissingen then you should go check them out at their next gig on the 27th of January with Pathways. For fans of Defeater, More Than Life and Foxxes. 8/10.
