I wanna like this, but something is awfully emo about the sound? Not sure if it is the vocals or the guitars or what? I could get into this if it were a little faster. I hear hints of Hot Water Music, which is a good thing.

Chris rules, and you SHOULD like this.

I am definitely intrigued and I like it more than dislike it. I'd just like to hear more and hope there is some faster tempo stuff? Good musicians for sure.

This band is fucking awesome, I have no clue what you're talking about dude.

i have never seen a band who hasnt played show yet have so many shows planned

Srsly. That's pretty nuts/awesome.

We are going to let you all down.

why do people feel obligated to like their friends bands?...just wonderin'...

You like your friends' bands because you want to support them. Because, you know, that's what friends do.

new concepts 2k9

yeah, but theres a fine line between supporting your friends bands and 'having to like them'...

its almost like your lying to your friends...which is not very friendly...

Because it's actually something we like? I have liked about 99% of bands my friends have started..

like i said, its cool if you like them and support them...but alls im saying is be honest with yourself and like them if you like them, don't like them just because they are your friends...if they suck, and you know it, support them, that is cool, but don't lie about your like for them, just because they are your friends......just not cool

whats the 1%?

How the fuck is this even relevant? You're just drumming up discontent for no reason.

Mostly Stand United. Derek, Blayhn, Seth are all my buddies but it's just not for me. I'm not trying to get any shit talking started on them either. They are all good kids who love music just as much as we do, just another form. The Finest and a few other bands that have came and went.

Do you REALLY not like Long Nights? I think it's awesome. Although I miss Ian's vocals in Old Men Dead Dogs, I'm stoked on this new band they've started and I think Chris sounds pretty good vocally.

diggin the Hot Water Music vibe. Keep it up dudes.

truth

You should like this because this band is good. Not a difficult concept.

I believe what he's saying is there are things that he likes and dislikes about this band. Thus, he wants to like them, but the things that he dislikes keep him from doing it wholeheartedly.

lets just all compare weiners and call it a night.

I'm fucked.

whats good though is relative...whos to say what is good and not good? i don't know...new bands rarely trip my trigger anymore...everybody is always like somebody else, and i've become discontent with about every new band i've heard, whether i typically like the genre or not...which is a flaw of mine...any band that somebody starts around here that sounds like minor threat, good clean fun or rambo(pulled these outta my ass) is going to be considered 'really fucking awesome'...and i don't really get why...they may be fun, and a good time live...but what are they doing thats really so special? i would probably dig them to...this is a real question...i suppose holding on to the roots of hardcore, but at the same time, add a new element and make it your own...blah blah blah

agreed.

shores of the tundra is/was? really good

race to the bottom was tite.

awesome dudes..not into the electronic thing though.

i only saw them(rttb) once, and i really like them...i think it was their last show...colonizer played it
sott....the electronic thing weirded me out when i saw them, way back...it seemed like they had a lot of potential...i guess part of what turns me onto new bands when i see them, is knowing that they have original ways of thinking and writing riffs and you can tell that they are going to grow and develope as a band and write very well written songs some day...don't interpret that as a gimmick...
