A Wilhelm Scream

[scarlets_soul]

ive never seen a thread dedicated towards this band (link me if there was one earlier). So rather then trying to dig out an old thread if there was any, i thought lets start a new one for all fans like myself.

Discussion can relate to what are your favourite songs, and what bands sound similar to "A Wilhelm Scream" that we all might enjoy.

:smash: gogogo

[DaveToopes]

I LOVE them. Ruiner is a fantastic album and so is Mute Print. Myspace. (http://myspace.com/awilhelmscream)

[Matt?]

one of my favorite bands

these guys are just amazing

the guitarist is unbelievable

[Brain Toad]

Good band.

[Matt?]

so many good songs but the ones that come to mind now would be

anchor end, the kids can eat a bag of dick, killing it...

[Half Way To 0]

Very good band. Ruiner is such a good cd. My band got to play with them this past December. They are so good live

[Weezerfan_returns]

Very good band. Ruiner is such a good cd. My band got to play with them this past December. They are so good live
what band are you in?

[Half Way To 0]

At the time we were Dead End Generation, but we have since changed our name to Doomsday on Broadway since there are a crap load of bands called Dead End Generation. We opened for them when they played at Mad Planet with the Blackout Pact. April 23rd we're opening for Leftover Crack there.

[scarlets_soul]

oh legends, all good replies im impressed.

Ive heavily been into Mute print im glad u mentioned Ruiner, i dont think i have heard any of the songs off it. Ill have to look into grabbing the cd.

Fav songs for myself would have to be:

retiring
the rip
famous friends and fashion drunks
and i guess you can add catharsis for dummies it does tend to stay in your head.

In relation to other bands, im a big fan of rise against, strung out, thrice, afi, bad religion etc the fast tempo i guess wins me with these guys.

Ruiner is going to be a definate buy.:thumb:

[RetiredAt21]

Great great great band.

[TakeWarning]

Such a good band.

[Microwave meals & ideals]

One of my favourite bands.
Ruiner and Mute Print are both fantastic albums. Benefits of Thinking Out Loud is good too, just not as good. Trevor Reilly is a musical genious.

[POINTLESS5448]

benefits of thinking out loud has a slightly different sound than mute print and ruiner which is why i dont like it was much i think. i still love them though. i was so excited i was going to see them but of course it got sold out. ****ing less than jake....

[KingOfSka]

I was skeptical as to whether or not I'd like this band, then my friend sent me "Famous Friends and Fashion Drunks" and I was hooked.

My favourite songs are The King Is Dead, The Kids Can Eat A Bag Of Dick, and every single song on Mute Print.

[AIRIC]

They are awesome. They were a bit sloppy live but still an awesome show.

[Matt?]

man that intro to anchor end is so catchy and awesome

i aspire to be that good at guitar

[Mute Print]

Amazing band. I've seen them 4 times, and they've been great every time.

[Iron Bug]

Ruiner > Mute Print

[AIRIC]

Ruiner = Mute Print

[Mute Print]

Ruiner = Mute Print
I agree. Both albums are awesome.

[Matt?]

Ruiner = Mute Print
big 123

[KingOfSka]

The intro to Williams Blake Overdrive is way better. I've been meaning to learn that.

[TakeWarning]

Anchor End intro > William Blake Overdrive intro.

Yeahhhh.

[RetiredAt21]

Anchor End intro > William Blake Overdrive intro.

Yeahhhh.

Definitely.

[Microwave meals & ideals]

The King Is Dead intro > all other song intros ever.

Fantastic start to the album. Fo' Sho'.

[irtehmitchell]

****ing amazing band. i'd say ruiner and mute print are pretty equally awesome.

[AIRIC]

King is Dead is probably one of the best intro songs ever. That song wouldn't fit anywhere else so perfectly.

[Matt?]

that song is perfect

[DaveToopes]

Agreed, I love that song so much.

[Liebensaft]

I love what I've heard. I'm in need of another listen very soon.

[cobert]

The King Is Dead intro > all other song intros ever.

Fantastic start to the album. Fo' Sho'.

Pretty close, that song is awesome.

Good band. I personally prefer Ruiner over Mute Print.

[Rockafella]

Just plain awesome. First band I saw live. :D

[faith and fiction]

My pride and joy

[TakeWarning]

The reason I like Mute Print more than Ruiner is because every song on Mute Print just seems completely perfect.

[RetiredAt21]

Yeah, pretty much every song on Mute Print is good, no fillers.

[Microwave meals & ideals]

I seem to alternate between the two albums as to which is my favourite. Right now it's Ruiner though, everything about that album is perfect. Even the artwork in the sleeve is brilliant.

[ibanezman575]

they're pretty good, i've seen them live before.
and they like the boston red sox

[AIRIC]

they really like the boston red sox.

[DaveToopes]

Baseball is a respectable sport. Better than basketball anyways, ICK!

Soccer and hockey are the best.

[Mute Print]

they're pretty good, i've seen them live before.
and they like the boston red sox
The second time I saw them they played with H2O. For those of you who don't know, H2O is from NYC, and they commented a couple times about AWS being cool even though they were Sox fans. Anway, during the middle of H2O's set, one of the guys from AWS hung a Red Sox flag above the stage. Of course, being in NY, most people booed, but it was still awesome.

I'm a Red Sox fan, so I found it hilarious. Overall it was a great night.

[sax_kid]

I saw them live when they toured with Less than Jake in montreal.... it was a pretty sick perfomance by them!:thumb:

[RetiredAt21]

They played with Less Than Jake? That seems kinda weird.

[POINTLESS5448]

yeah it sucks because everyone LOVES less than jake and therefore i couldnt se e a wilhem scream. bastards.

[Flagjacket]

yeah it sucks because everyone LOVES less than jake and therefore i couldnt se e a wilhem scream. bastards.
What?

[POINTLESS5448]

i couldnt go see them when they were here because they were playing with less than jake and everyone down here loves less than jake so it got sold out and i couldnt see them.

[Flagjacket]

Oh. I thought you were like "Oh man, people LIKE Less Thank Jake so I couldn't go to that and I would look like a tool." Then I'd call you out.

[POINTLESS5448]

haha. nope. i probably would have tried to go see them even if a wilhem scream wasnt playing. im not a big fan but they have some good songs.

[RetiredAt21]

yeah it sucks because everyone LOVES less than jake and therefore i couldnt se e a wilhem scream. bastards.

I don't understand what you mean.

[RetiredAt21]

Disregard my last post.

[TakeWarning]

I hope they tour Down Under sometime soon.

[DaveToopes]

I'm pissed I missed them when they played here.

[TakeWarning]

Why'd you miss them?

[DaveToopes]

It was on a school night, and at the time I had just gotten into them and didn't like them nearly as much as I do now. If they ever come back I'll definitely be there.

[Permanent Solution]

That's a shame. They are insane good times live. Even the kids who had no idea who they were loved it.

[ibanezman575]

well partly thanks to this thread i picked up ruiner last night
the cd's cool, but what is the deal with the booklet?
whats the significance of the guy getting mauled by the birds?

[cobert]

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE GUY GETTING MAULED BY THE BIRDS:

It looked really cool.

[Flagjacket]

Cause birds represent SOCIETY.

[skateMASTERbater2]

I keep hearing they're so incredible live. When i saw them in support of good riddance i thought they were boring, maybe because i don't like melodic hardcore

[Brain Toad]

I haven't seen the booklet, but maybe it's a scene from the movie Birds and they really liked it.

[Matt?]

i think that the birds are crows.

[RetiredAt21]

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE GUY GETTING MAULED BY THE BIRDS:

It looked really cool.

Hahahaha, indeed.

[ibanezman575]

ah ok
so the guy was angry at society, lashed out, and was rejected and ultimately defeated
thats my interpretation

i've listened to the cd a lot since i got it last night...wow
its really good

[AWilhelmPetter]

This great thread can't die. AWS is the best band around to date. Mute Print is better than Ruiner. I recon it's got better songs and a more taste of what I assosiate with "A Wilhelm Scream". Ruiner is the best album of 2005 though, so don't get me wrong, it is an awesome album for sure.

Anyone who hasn't seen this band live and gets the chance after reading this post should not think twice before attending that show. They are amazing live. No bullcrap.

Can't wait to see what these guys have planned for the futrue!

[AIRIC]

They're not amazing live they're sloppy and bad.

But still a good show.

[Im going to Disney World!]

The only thing I would say was sloppy when I saw them live were their vocal harmonies, and that was because their former bassist curtiss cant sing for shi.t

Haha, holy fück, another guy named Petter who is a huge aWS fan :D

I love aWS to death, they're my absolutely favourite band (along with some oth bands, but w/e). "Mute print" is slightly better than "Mute Print" in my opinion, but they're both awesome. As is the older stuff/the Smackin' Isaiah stuff. "Beautiful Girl Disease" is one of their best songs.

:confused:

[Pete]

I meant, "Mute Print" is better than "Ruiner". Sorry, read my user title.

[TakeWarning]

I remember that thread that was like Mute Print vs Ruiner and everyone seemed to like Ruiner better.

But now the tables have turned.

[Pete]

"Mute Print" is better, but "Ruiner" is pretty darn awesome too. I seem to have lost them both when I moved though =/ Weird, because I'm not missing any other albums. I'm sure they'll turn up though.

[RetiredAt21]

Mute Print is definitely better than Ruiner.

[hendrixonpunk]

i remember a year or two ago i downloaded a song by wilelm scream then later classified it as crap, so i guess i don;t like them. i guess.

[RetiredAt21]

You don't make much sense.

[TakeWarning]

Yeah Mute Print is better but Ruiner is still amazing.

[Mute Print]

Yeah Mute Print is better but Ruiner is still amazing.
Agreed, I love both albums.

I really hope I get to see AWS again on their tour with Lagwagon this summer.

[obese_breasts]

I really want to go to that tour.

[Mute Print]

Since it's a summer tour, I may be able to travel to somewhere like Toronto or Cleveland if there isn't a Buffalo date. It should be an amazing tour.

[obese_breasts]

I'm going to LA for it. I think me and my friends are going to make a night of it and stay down there.

[Flagjacket]

AWS and lagwagon? A soldier just died so I can go see that.

[obese_breasts]

and the Lawrence Arms.

[Flagjacket]

I just filled the cup.

[RetiredAt21]

Lagwagon and A Wilhelm Scream? That's insane. I have to go to that.

[Weezerfan_returns]

I've heard a few of their songs, and really liked them... But i'm poor and don't get to buy music as much as i'd like to, which AWS album should I start with? Mute Print?

[TakeWarning]

Start with Mute Print, definetely.

[RetiredAt21]

Sweet, that tour is coming to Philly! I must attend.

[Microwave meals & ideals]

I just downloaded some new(I think) song called Diver, it's pretty good.

Where did you download that from?

I haven't found "Diver" anywhere, I really want it.

[TakeWarning]

A Wilhelm Scream - Diver (2006) (http://app.dagi3d.net/foropunk/#la)

It's under all the videos.

[Microwave meals & ideals]

Awesome, cheers.
