So far I've seen two shows of them. I think they're a pretty damn good band, it's nice to see some serious energy on stage. What do you guys think about them?

They played at the triplerock, once with Against Me!, and the last time was on wednesday at the triplerock.

I saw them play with Against Me! and liked them, but hadn't known them prior to that show. My friends went and saw them again a couple weeks ago at their own show. They actually agreed to come and play a show in my friend's basement in the suburbs.

Spurs & Spokes/Bull > Matador is a really awesome album. The one that came out before that, can't remember the name, is also pretty decent. The earliest one doesn't sound like them at all and I didn't like it much. Their new album's alright. Definitely not as good as Spurs & Spokes..., but pretty ok.

That's awesome that they played a show in their basement, I do like Spurs And Spokes better than their latest release, but theyre both really good albums to me. Theres some quality tracks on How Far Our Bodies Go.

I was there on Wednesday. I woulda been at the AM! one too but I was in ****ing France. What was up with the moshcore/synthpop band? That was just weird...

They really are fun to see. They have such a good time on stage and move around a lot, its great to see a band doing that.

They didn't play at my friend's house yet. They said they would though. Next tour, I guess.

Indeed. Who ever the guy is that does their merch is also extremely cool.

I saw them with Against Me! I liked them because it seemed like they took classic rock guitar riffs and fit them into their own style of punk, which for some reason in one of my favourite things in music.

Well sorry, I thought this was a forum where everyone expresses their opinion, not the Fake Problems Feedback Group.

I heard about these guys a few months before they went on tour with AM!, they added me on myspace, and I just started liking them.

Then I found Barlights on there top 8, at the time, they only had one song up, now they have three, and I think Barlights is kick ***.


But yeah, I haven't heard much of their stuff before How Far Our Bodies Go, aside from what they put up on their myspace.
They have some catchy songs, and I can't help but tap along with the beats they have.

I saw them open for Defiance and Madeline etc a while ago. It was great. The first thing the guitarist said while checking out the amps was something like, "I'm making it louder." And lo and behold, it was loud, fun music.

Last night my band played a show at my friend's house, and friends of his in folk bands called Whiskey Smile and Slug's Revenge came. They happen to be friends with the guys in Fake Problems. They said they live in a giant house in Florida with a pool and everything.

I want to swim with Fake Problems.

I'd put money that they would be down for that!
