    I'm a metal guy, but there are a few hardcore/punk bands that I really enjoy. Richmond's Avail is one of those bands. Avail combines melody with aggression, which sets them apart from the rest of the hardcore/punk scene. Avail is certainly loud and fast enough for most hardcore/punk fans, but they are also a band that fans of Social Distortion and Bad Religion can get into.

    Over the James is the band's fourth album, and the final in the Jade Tree series of Avail reissues. It's also the absolute best album the band has ever released. Beyond the fact that the band has never sounded better musically, the lyrics just seemed more personal and meaningful. This isn't just a collection of songs; it's a mission statement that speaks to your heart and your head. My favorite songs are "Deepwood," "Nickel Bridge" and "August," but honestly you'll find yourself screaming along with just about every song on this incredible album. I really can't recommend this album highly enough.

    Reissue Notes: Over the James was already perfect, but the 2006 reissue makes it even better. The album has been digitally remastered, so it sounds even better than before. Plus, they've added four bonus tracks - a (sort of) acoustic version of "Lombardy Street" and covers of Embrace, Elvis, and of all people Billy Joel. It's a bit light on bonus material compared to the Dixie and 4AM Friday reissues, but I can hardly complain. In addition to the extra songs, the booklet has plenty of new liner notes, photos, flyers, etc. All in all, the band gives you plenty of reasons to replace your old copy of Over the James. I just hope Satiate receives the same deluxe treatment someday.
