last resort en vivo

This one is even better than the last one. Mayday! performing ‘Last Resort’ at their Technology EP (available online, for free) release party at Transit Lounge:

free (the late pass edition)

I was gonna make this about how the landscape of the music business is changing and how these big name bands (Radiohead, NIN, Coldplay, et al) are bucking the system by sidestepping labels and connecting with their fanbase directly online but I’d just rather post a list of albums available for free on the internetz (most of this stuff has been available online for a minute but I’ve just become privy to it):

• Coldplay – LeftRightLeftRightLeft
• Mayday! – Technology
• Mayday! – The Thinnest Line
• NIN|JA – EP
• NIN – The Slip

Naturally, I’m hoping someone actually reads this and maybe gives me a heads up on other groups getting in on the act. (Weren’t Oasis and Jamiroquai following up on NIN & Radiohead?)

live from somwhere

This is probably the nicest live video footage of Mayday! I’ve seen. It’s but a sample of type of energy you get outta one of their shows. Watch Gianni (percussion) & L.T. (drums) tear it up at the end.

another homebrewed joint

This time it’s Wrek’s alcohol fueled “Win the Game” featuring Mayday, directed by (Miami transplant) Rommel Garcia. And it’s nice.

Also, there’s still time left for the Mayday’s “Watching You” Music Video Contest, or if you will, straight from the source:
