I just got Hours by these guys. I am really liking this. Anyone else dig it?

I like it although it's not as good as Casually Dressed... IMO. You might not find too much love for them round these parts though but loads of people in Pop-Punk like them .

wrong forum. Street car reminds of Tragedy (the band) for some reason.

Yeah Guitar Symphony, the Hours cd has some awesome songs. Although there weren't as many good songs on it as Casually Dressed..., I still think it's tight. I'm working on tabbing out the album, seeing as mxtabs doesn't even have FFAF in their listings.

I'm almost finished with the tab of Recovery, which took awhile to pick out all the stuff going on in the background. If anyone wants to help out tabbing the album, just send me a pm or reply here.

to be honest i hardly ever listen to stuff from that genre but streetcar is ridculously catchy and the album is pretty good. in my opinion its VERY pop,but I dont mind that. Its almost going the lostprophets route (minus turntables).

Ah, sorry I didn't take note of it because it was spelled wrong. Usually in mxtabs the tabs for a band aren't all under the same directory if the name of the band is spelled wrong. Rather, it's usually a solo submitter that accidentally misspelled it, so I figured when I saw that directory, that was the case.

A good pop punk band, not hardcore or emo.

I've always thought "Pop Punk" had a degrading tinge to it. I think FFAF is more post-hardcore than pop punk.

on first listen i was unimpressed with the hours. casually dressed was a lot better, in my opinion. im giving it a follow up listen as i type

I have Casually Dressed and it's a decent album. I'm not going to bother with Hours though.

I downloaded it in one the YSI threads. I think it was the lockdown one, but I don't remember.

But I'll see if I can get Casually Dressed since every one seems to prefer that song.

I've seen them countless times here and there since I live in South Wales. They have a huge following around here, but they're not my thing.

Yes.

Yeah what I've heard from the EP is much better than Casually Dressed.

He's from Caerphilly if I remember rightly and I'm from Merthyr encase you wanted to know.

Yup, Caerphilly.

I haven't heard any songs off the album except for Streetcar so far, but this song sounds ALOT more pop-punk compared to alot of the songs from their previous work. For example, This years most open heartbreak, which is very emo/hardcore.

But still I look forward to getting the album and I'm not that bothered if they sound more pop-punk.

EPs > Casually Dressed... > Hours True all the way

Hours is really crap imo, theyve pretty much killed all emo/hardcore they had left in them and gone down the pop punk route. I'm so dissapointed I wish I'd never spent my money on this :'( They dont' scream at all and they just sound like they're trying too hard to impress :@

All The Rage is pretty good though.

i got hours on saturday (2 whole days before release :cool: ) i am enjoying listening to it but casually dressed is a better album as hours is far too pop punk

I just got their new cd today. nowhere near hardcore or emo anymore, no screaming, just pop-punk/alternative. it's a shame. especially the "Atlantic Records" part of it.

it was a mistake in the craziness of last night. new threads, old threads bumped, deleted threads, banned users. oh the confusion. now lets just let it die like it should.
