Uhh...how much this album art cost again? Anybody?


From the soil of Marysville, Michigan in 2003 formed a band named Every Avenue. They had played alongside Boys Like Girls and Metro Station. Memory refresh : Metro Station once became famous with the song titled Shake It on the radio and lost it fame when Seventeen Forever didn’t manage to capture the hearts of Malaysians.

If you are checking them out, here’s the line up. Or else just hit the play button on the right side of the page or on the youtube player at the bottom. Give em a shot!

Albums and EP’s :
Every Avenue EP (2004)
Skip this whole album, trust me or you would waste approximately  20 minutes.

This Is Why We Don’t Have Nice Things EP (2006)
Pretty darn good, all the tracks are good but non are catchy or addictive.

Ah! (EP) (2007)
This  was  when they  started to record good tracks and got acknowleged.
"Where Were You"
"Think Of You Later (Empty Room)"

Every Avenue (2007)
It’s a combination of the Every Avenue EP and This Is Why We Don’t Have Nice Things and it’s somehow special for Japan.

Shh. Just Go With It (2008)
"Think Of You Later" and "Where Were You" were repeated in this album.
Song that stood up for itself in this album was
"A Story To Tell Your Friends"

Picture Perfect
The first five tracks are just brilliant, genius, addictive, makes you want to listen to it over and over again, close to be named  their masterpieces. They’re just that awesome!  And this is where I fell in love with Every Avenue ;)
"For Always, Forever"
"Mindset"
"Tell Me I'm a Wreck" (written with Tim Pagnotta of Sugarcult)
"Picture Perfect"  feat. Tom Higgenson of Plain White T’s
"Happy the Hard Way" written with Stacy Jones of American Hi-Fi

No hard feelings but after this 5 tracks they lost their charm, the rest do not own the reason to re-listen to them. Unless you are deeply in love with Every Avenue then you’ll know what  I am talking about. 

Nevertheless, they are coming out with something new this year. (During Summer..uhh when is summer?) No matter if it’s an EP or an album, I am looking forward to hear it.  DC heroes up next..
