DAILY DOSE VOL 1:01


band: SHINY TOY GUNS
song: YOU ARE THE ONE

Since the Sophomore release from Shiny Toy Guns comes out today, 11/04/08, I felt as if I should pay homage to one of their classic songs from their first album "We Are Pilots." This dynamic electro-pop infused song is called "You Are The One," and it's a great representation of what this amazing band is all about! Shiny Toy Guns had one huge song on the radio called "le disko," it was an average song (in my opinion) that didn't wow me any, but if it gave perspective Shiny Toy Gun fans a sneak peak/sample of what the band sounds like then I guess it served its purpose.

I highly recommend you buy the album "We Are Pilots," on iTunes - the new album, well the jury is still out! I for one had no idea that the new album was coming! I have to admit that I don't subscribe to the band's gossip sites so I had no idea that one of the lead singers was booted out of the group and that the new album was a bit heavier than the Freshman release - I'll see about that. I am hoping that my BFF, Joseph, gives me the new album called "Season of Poison," so I can check it out and give it a gander - I'm hoping it's good because I fell in love with this band a few years ago, and even turned a few people onto the band too! The one thing I hate is when a new band comes out with an amazing album but doesn't follow through with their second - kinda like Pearl Jam, kinda *wink*!!!
