UTP Reviews: Streetlight Manifesto's The Hands That Thieve

In order to prevent Cait from hunting me down and smothering me with a pillow in my sleep I will now proceed to write a review of The Hands That Thieve by Streetlight Manifesto.

The big reason that I haven’t written a review yet, besides being lazy, is that I really like to take my time with Streetlight Manifesto albums. Or album if you’re counting the ones that has been released since I started to write reviews. I wasn’t enthusiastic about Somewhere In The Between when it first came out, and it was not until a couple months later that I understood how good of an album it was. Things were quite different with The Hands That Thieve (THTT). From the first listen I was getting into nearly every track on the album. Time will tell, but this newest release may emerge as my overall favorite Streetlight album.

So Less Than Jake started a tour & quietly dropped a new EP today

In concert with Less Than Jake starting a short tour of the northeast U.S., the band released a five-song ep on their own Sleep It Off Records. You can get the new ep, Season's Greetings from Less Than Jake  here. You can hear a song from it, 'Younger Lungs', over at AbsolutePunk.net. This record serves as a companion to last year's Greetings from Less Than Jake ep.
