Pittsburgh and New York City area band Ball of Flame Shoot Fire sound intoxicatingly manic on their new LP Jokeland (pronounced like Oakland). Especially compelling is the spacey and energetic "Patience" which builds slowly into a monster of wailing harmonies, crashing drums and echoing guitars—a moment where the exceptional loudness turns absorbing and reflective. 
This is great! I am an independent singer songwriter and I learn a lot from reading blogs like this - thanks so much for sharing.
