The Future is Cancelled by Captain, We're Sinking was one of my most anticipated albums this year and as expected it did not disappoint. Not only that but I am pretty sure this record will end up in the top 5 of 2013.

Captain, We're Sinking is not a new band by any means, although it is young one. The guys are from Philadelphia and are pretty close with the likes of The Menzingers, Tigers Jaw and Title Fight. I would like to share the way the band has described themselves in Facebook: "Four dudes with extraordinary abilities to mess things up. Time to put this turkey in the oven." and "Four strapping young men who write songs about the dangers of getting too close to wild animals."

Captain, We're Sinking had their debut full length The Animals Are Out released in 2008 and it was followed by two EPs and one split 7". The band signed with the amazing Run For Cover Records to release their sophemore effort earlier this year.

There are so many songs on The Future Is Cancelled that deserve to be shared, so if you like the one below, please check the whole record right here. I recommend "Montreal". "You Have Flaws" and "A Bitter Divorce" as the most standing out ones. Bare in mind that the lyrics are so powerfull and sang beautifully.

The song that won the fight for this post is "Beer Can"
