Sleep It Off - by Blood and Water

Awesome stuff - check it out!  You can download their album "In Character" for free from IVM (link provided below…)! (but only for 2 weeks...)

Blood & Water is based out of… well, depends on what site you look at.. but they're based out of California.  They're a 4-piece band who started as a ska band in 2004 (but, as their MySpace says: "began taking shape in the summer of 2006, when they released their first EP") inspired by the likes of The O.C. Supertones, Five Iron Frenzy, Weezer, & Jimmy Eat World.  They've released 2 EP's, followed by 2 LP's - their first was self-titled in 2008; their latest was after signing to Eden Records, based out of San Fransisco - called "In Character", released July 13th, 2010; it was produced by Masaki Liu who did Five Iron Frenzy, The W's, & Matisyahu.  This song is from "In Character".

… So, I just went to get the link for the download, but as of last week, their host server has been giving them problems.  I managed to get my digital copy this morning (it was supposed to be available yesterday), but their site is down again.  It's up for at least 2 weeks from yesterday, so still check in every now & again until it's up (it is a legit site - not sketchy; it's just the host they've been dealing with…)
