#10: Showtime - The Horror Show



So, I'm definitely not against putting albums in this list when for one, it does have it's own place in my top 50, and two, I know the members of the band personally. I think it was back in 2012 where I first saw a good friend of mine post on Facebook that he and his band will be releasing their EP soon. I was curious so I asked them what band he was in, he then told me it was Showtime. Intrigued by the name and the possible concept of the group, I started to follow their posts via Facebook. They decided to release their EP titled "The Horror Show" in March of 2014. Upon hearing it the first time, I was so excited to message that same friend, and let him know how much I loved the album on first listen. Fortunately, that opinion still stands to this day. It's a genuine post-hardcore album, with it's own special elements thrown into it to still make it unique. It's of course mixed with the theme of being on stage and performing a play/show, hence their name. I don't spread the positivity of this album just because I know the band, I spread the positivity because I think it's great for bands that are both unsigned, and bands that want to just have a good time, can prove to make a pretty solid album. You'd listen to it and you'd never think they were just a few guys playing music in their basement. The production quality is fantastic, and it's definitely worth a listen or two, or ten.
