Hey guys! Welcome to the brand new look of The Sound Faction! We all honestly never thought that we would come to a point with our site that we would outgrow ourselves, and so when we in fact did come to that point there was nothing else we could do except suck it up and redesign! It was a daunting task, but we're in this for the long haul with you guys, and we'll do what we need to. Hopefully we can stay in our current skin for a while!

So thanks for sticking with us while we redesigned, and if you find a dead link here or there, send us a note at and let us know so we can get back to fully functioning ASAP!

You guys know that we here at The Sound Faction love our Hasket boys to death! (PS, if you missed last week's announcement, their album "The Change in Weather" is out and available on Big Cartel for only seven bucks here!!) We've worked with them a lot around here, and now we are STOKED to unveil a new sub division here: The Sound Faction Presents: Exclusive Hasket!

Be sure to drop by and check out our Exclusive Hasket page, 100% Hasket with Interviews, Videos, Photos and Downloads to fill all of your Hasket needs!

Awwww!!!

That's really all I can say about this video! Well that's a bag of lies... I can say a LOT about this video and Suburban Legends in general, but I just watched this video for the 10th time and after each one the only thing I can spit out is "Awww!!!" This my friends is Robot (Brian Robertson) of Suburban Legends gettin' his groove on to a Legends cover classic of Under The Sea.

One more time, join me...: "Awww!!!"
