[Dextomethorphan]

Is there a band called Life At Sea that is emo? I heard these guys who are in hardcore bands talk about them the other night, said the guitarist is from Grade. I was drunk, so I'm surprised I even remember that, so maybe I'm way off here...

[whiteminority]

Yeah my bad, I'm thinking about ordering their LP but it's out on Clean Plate and Will takes forever to ship stuff out from there.

Thats a pretty nice list. How was Amanda Woodward? I sometimes dream that one day a good band will come to North Carolina, lol.

[cbmartinez]

Go see Hopesfall.

[Sep]

Thats a pretty nice list. How was Amanda Woodward? I sometimes dream that one day a good band will come to North Carolina, lol.

They ruled. Their drummer's sick. I got this awesome piratey AW tee. This really cool dutch hxc band also opened for them.

[White Goodman]

Go see Hopesfall.

I would if they actually played some shows.

[Dancin' Man]

I'd love some YSI's. Also, whoever had that Yaphet Kotto, I'd dig on that as well. I'll keep my eyes open for requests I can satisfy.

I don't know if any of you know the band Damiera but I'll upload their full length. Very sick band, just played their last show on a 115 date tour. It's kind of poppy but also pretty mathy. Not really emo at all, but still excellent.

Probably my favorite song by Welcome the Plague Year, with a close second being Behold A Pale Horse.

[bottlerocket]

doomsday parade is so awesome. the intro rules

Improv 1 Take 1 > Doomsday Parade > Interlude

Those are my 3 favorite songs by WTPY in order. I love WTPY, though. All their songs are sweeeeeeeet.

[sink sink]

I find myself humming Interlude a lot

[bottlerocket]

Yeah, it's a great song. The sample at the end of Doomsday Parade and the beginning of Interlude is fantastic.

damn, that sucks. hope they are ok. i was just listening to the moon is a dead world while in my car tonight, its heavy to think one of them might be dying.

[bottlerocket]

Yeah, I know what you mean. It's sort of a reality check; "you don't know what you have 'til it's gone" sort of deal.

I just found out Anna Nicole Smith's son died. My friend just IMed me to tell me and I was like, "...yeah...so? That sucks and all but do I care?"

She signed off after. I think she blocked me.

I'm not sure if the Gospel **** is real.

But they're the only band that's acutally doing something interesting in emo, so **** any of you naysayers.

I never dug Gospel much but that does suck.

i find gospel really uninteresting, but if that accident thing is true really sucks

How can anyone be bored with that album?! I bought that album about a year ago and I still don't get bored when I listen to it.

[srt-4]

the drumming alone on that album can keep me listening to it over and over

[whiteminority]

^Exactly. I have listened to that album too many times to count and it seems I still find something "new" about it when I listen to it.

[Matt?]

honestly i just don't really like the way it sounds. if that's worth anything.

i know the amount of technique and originality on it is pretty cool, but it doesn't mean anything if you don't like the way it sounds.

[pixiesfanyo]

honestly i just don't really like the way it sounds. if that's worth anything.

I'm posting just to say that when I heard about that, I laughed hysterically for like 10 minutes straight.

[cbmartinez]

"Members of Rockets And Blue Lights Die In Bizarre Ritualistic Homosexual Orgy"

[pixiesfanyo]

Did the orgy finish by them ripping off Cap'n Jazz?

[cbmartinez]

Yeah, it started when they noticed that one album has the word "anal" in it. It all went downhill from there.

[bottlerocket]

Cap'n'Jazz is sweet. Someone hook me up with them.

[whiteminority]

omg gospel got jacked.

Did anyone here get the new Mars Volta? No matter what im going to get it, im just wondering what to expect.

[bottlerocket]

I bet it sucks.

De-Loused was incredible. Frances the Mute was pretty lame. I bet this will be even lamer.

-Gav

[cobert]

Nah, Frances The Mute was better.

Every time TMV come up I have this argument where its me for FTM and pretty much everyone else liking de-loused more.

[Matt?]

i really like both albums the same- a lot.

i hate the new album.

finished ender's game today. good book

[Luxor]

Nah, Frances The Mute was better.

:confused: :confused: :confused:

[srt-4]

i really like both albums the same- a lot.

i hate the new album.

finished ender's game today. good book
i remember towards the end thinking there was no way card was going to be able to end it in the few pages that were left, but he showed me. haha

it was an ok book, entertaining, but thats about it.

[AIRIC]

What's it about?

[cbmartinez]

I heard the first track from the new TMV on their myspace and it was really bad.

Deloused > Frances

[cobert]

Yeah, I started listening to it on their myspace, and I got bored on the first track and shut it off.

[srt-4]

What's it about?
its been more than a few years since i read it, but from what i remember, its a sci fi book about a young kid that is sent off to a military academy to train to command forces in a war to fight off aliens i guess, i don't really remember who the enemy was that well. anyway, the kid, ender, is like the best of the best and their only chance to win the war.

[Matt?]

basically yeah. it's not like super "deep" or anything but it's definitely easy to get into. i don't really like books that much but i thought it was a pretty fun and easy read.

it's sci fi, i'm reading it for science fiction class

it's basically about how the world got attacked by these aliens and the humans were basically getting zwned by them, but then they come back miraculously and fend them off. the world comes together to protect themselves against the aliens, and all the smartest kids in the world get sent to this space school where they take part in these strategy games, kinda like quidditch but with guns. it's all about how they take this kid and manipulate his entire life just for there one goal of destroying the aliens, and when he finally destroys them, he realizes the aliens were misunderstood originally, and they never really meant to hurt people.

[srt-4]

you have a science fiction class??

and what kind of stuff does that xiu xiu band that you mention play? i just saw that they are coming here in a couple weeks.

[RetiredAt21]

My sister listens to Xiu Xiu alot. I can't stand that crap.

[srt-4]

what is it? they don't have a purevolume

[Sep]

the drumming alone on that album can keep me listening to it over and over

The drummer is really good, but he plays a bit too flashy for my tastes.

I do dig that 7 mins song called Paper Tigon (I think)? It might be track 4.

[Eliminator]

Nah, Frances The Mute was better.

Every time TMV come up I have this argument where its me for FTM and pretty much everyone else liking de-loused more.

I love you for this.

Very good book.

[whiteminority]

I think you're thinking of Golden Dawn maybe?

and what kind of stuff does that xiu xiu band that you mention play? i just saw that they are coming here in a couple weeks.
They play like indie with some experimentation I guess you could say. Just go see them.

[bottlerocket]

Ender's Game is good but Ender's Shadow sucked. It's about how Bean follows Ender's footsteps.

The best part of Ender's Game is the simulation game with the giant and the 3 shot glasses.

-Gav

[RetiredAt21]

Everyone listen to Grief.

[k1ckthecat]

everyone listen to Wheatus.

[Matt?]

i like that giants drink part too.

i want to name a song after it

[pixiesfanyo]

Ender's Shadow is so much better than Ender's Game it's ridiculous.

The whole Bean deal is so much better, it's less about action and much more about politics and decisions.

Ender's Game is like Tool, and Ender's Shadow is like TMV.

[pixiesfanyo]

also. gav's so scene it hurts.

[srt-4]

I think you're thinking of Golden Dawn maybe?
hey you, you got a cigarrette man? you know i know you got one on you.
They play like indie with some experimentation I guess you could say. Just go see them.
hmm. maybe i should download some stuff first.

[srt-4]

i don't get the big deal about enders game. i liked it, but it was nothing amazing.

[Matt?]

no one said it was amazing


but i enjoyed it as much as any "amazing" book

[pixiesfanyo]

Ender's Shadow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[srt-4]

no one said it was amazing


but i enjoyed it as much as any "amazing" book
i'm not criticizing you. not on here, but in general people talk about that book like its so amazing. its entertaining, but i don't see why its a "classic."

speaking of books, on the road was really cool. although, for me not the life-changing book that other people have said it was for them.

[pixiesfanyo]

you should read The Naked Lunch.

that book will **** you up.

[srt-4]

alright, i'll check it out.

right now i'm reading plato's republic. its kind of disturbing.

[Matt?]

i don't read much. i probably missed a lot of fun reads. people should post easy to read books that were really enjoyable.

because i aint got time to waste

[pixiesfanyo]

easy to read book that was enjoyable - The Cat Inside - William S. Burroughs

It's about kittens.

[whiteminority]

Catcher in the Rye is an obvious choice.
I remember reading The Giver in like 6th grade and liking it a lot and going back and reading it recently and loving it so much more.

[Matt?]

pixies: sounds good

read catcher and the rye and the giver.

both were very enjoyable

[pixiesfanyo]

The Golden Compass is neat.

I'd consider it an easy read.

The sequels are lame though.

Just read The Golden Compass and pretend it's singular.

[AIRIC]

I started The Catcher In The Rye today in English. I read The Giver in 7th grade and I think I liked it. I'm gonna re-read it.

I'm reading the Godfather right now. It's sooo ****in good. Almost finished but I would recommend it.

[srt-4]

i never finished catcher in the rye. i probably should do that sometime.

one book that i read recently was "colossus: the rise and fall of the american empire". its excellent. anybody that takes any interest in their country or world affairs should read this book.

[whiteminority]

pixies: sounds good

I'll agree with everything you said but this.

You obviously haven't read enough Burroughs if you think Kerouac is better.

Read "On the Road" and that will change.

Burroughs shoots heroin and writes stream of consciousness; you're probably one of those people that jerk off to him but have no idea what he means, to be honest. I don't know what he means half the time.

We never read anything way radddd in english class until youre a senior. Then again, my english teacher last year said when he first read some of the books we read that year, he thought they all kind of sucked, then he read them again and college and now "The Awakening" is his favorite book. thought it kind of blew, it was extremely straightforward and didnt make me think about anything besides 'o noez theres a chick whos not a housewife like the other chicks because shes trying to bone some dude with the same name as me on the side'.

I've read plently of Kerouac and Burroughs, I was heavily into the beat thing in 10th grade.

Burroughs acutally was not really a junkie during any of his major writings, I think he really was only using heavily during The Naked Lunch but that was written over such a long period of time that it's hard to determine.

The difference between Burroughs and Kerouac is acutally the complete opposite of what you said. Half the time I find when reading Kerouac that half of what he is writing is useless dribble (Which is funny because on the other side of the spectrum, I absolutely hate Hemingway), where as with Burroughs he's always being satrical or pointing out some flaw.

I think I like Burroughs so much because you have to invest time, I don't think anyone gets The Naked Lunch the first time through completely. I'm sure many are replused you know, because that's one of the main purposes of it. But whatever.

And by the way I like the nice burn in there about how I like things but don't really get them. It's kind of like you and ya know.. coming in this forum and pretending you're super into hardcore, when.. ya know I first came here and you were like BLINK 182 OMgz.

Get off your high horse and go floor punchin' budd-o.

The best thing you'll probably read in high school is Virginia Woolf.

And she isn't that great.

Maybe you'll read "Crime and Punishment" but ugh, that's like 300 pages longer than it should be.

[cbmartinez]

Read Less Than Zero by Bret Easton Ellis. He's the same guy that did American Psycho and Laws(Rules?) Of Attraction. Probably one of the best books I've read. If you like Catcher, you'll love it. It's written in that style.

Other than that, I suggest The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath. Incredible piece of work.

[cobert]

Yeah, Im pretty sure its Rules of Attraction. They made some crappy movie out of it with the dude from Dawsons Creek.

Wow, Scott. Thanks. I didn't work in a hardware store for 2 years or anything. :p

I know how to use a utility knife. I used one everyday at work and always cut away from myself. I was cutting a circle and this time it just slipped; tangent line right off the circle into my wrist.

Emo is Hardcore, please don't say you think hardcore sucks but you listen to emo because Gav that is beyond retarded even if you don't like most straight hardcore.

Emo is a subgenre of hardcore. I don't have to like the main genre; and I don't. Deal with it. You can like a kid but not like the parent, fool. I like emo because it removes trivial, pointless BS in hardcore like the tough guy attitude and things of that nature but adds different stuff; a different type of passion (of course hardcore has passion but emo's passion is different), poetry (differs from hardcore lyrics/music because I can relate more), and an overall better musical structure (preferentially speaking).

If I have to explain and defend my preference one more time, you're all getting banned. :p

Stop giving Pixies random **** because he may be a pretentious *** but he seems to know his stuff with literature and has made some decent points.

He made no decent points but neither did I, since it wasn't a full fledged argument...also, I don't give him crap first. He started it with an unfunny and dead joke and I came back so he got more defensive than I do.

Also, if you think rambling on about Burroughs makes you "know [your] stuff with literature," I suggest you crack open a few more books.

So yeah, Ben, stfu plz.

Hello emo fags

I'm 99% sure I am going to be doing a presentation informing and educating on real emotional hardcore. My speech is going to be next friday. I'm going to be covering the history and evolution and use sound samples. At the end I'll be reccommending fourfa and this forum as resources if the audience wants more info or recommendations.

I'm going to be putting together a CD of samples, I know for sur eI'll be including Minor Threat, Embrace (as an example of the transition), Rites of Spring (maybe), Saetia, Neil Perry (for the combo of grind and emo) and Circle Takes the Square. Probably more, I need to look through my files and see what else I like. Anyone have any other reccomendations of must-hear emo bands that will help educate people?

Aight, for future reference, whats your AIM? Ill splow a nigga up after i get the blanks.

I listen to a little bit of hardcore here and there. Theres no band in particular I would really say I like, but most hardcore in general is just good enough for me to throw on.

modern life is war, with honor, shai hulud, sinking ships, refused, and final fight are bands i really like and constantly listen to. then with less regularity i'll listen to black flag, minor threat, lion of judah, kid dynamite, comback kid, dangers, ect.
