Protest The Hero New Album
 
AH! i bought it yesterday, its called Kezia. and its AMAZING. Way harder than their last CDs and WAY more talented. Its running closer to metalcore... The lyrics are way less politically angry but still good, puzzling and cryptic, but good. The bottom line is, you should all go out and by this album immediately.
[url]www.purevolume.com\protestthehero[/url] has one track (Nautical) but don't go by that, i heard it and wasn't a big fan, it fits in to the album much better than as a single track.

Protest The Hero - Kezia

I saw them 2 weeks ago, They put on a cool show and there a great band

Jersey's Best Dancer 09-09-2005 07:27 PM

never heard of them. I will definently check them out tho.

Happymeal 09-09-2005 07:43 PM

It's a lot more metal than usual but I guess people can dig that. They're still tight.

Whaat they have a Purevolume now

Chips 09-09-2005 09:07 PM

They're awesome. I've liked them forever. Kezia hasn't left my CD player since i bought it.

They're stll political, but i read in an interview that they are trying to write lyrics that are less obvious, and a bit more metaphorical and cryptic. The album itself is a concept album, about Kezia.

My theory is that part 1 is about religion, part 2 is about politics, part 3 is about gender roles and relationships, and part 4 is about themselves.

I haven't picked up the new album yet, but I know that Protest the Hero is ****ing amazing.

fastfingers 09-10-2005 07:54 AM

Hahahaha I remember once there was a big hardcore show in Toronto that, for some odd reason, Protest the Hero played at. [COLOR=White]Fu[/COLOR]cked Up, the local band that was headlining, went up and starting making soooo much fun of them. They said it was a hardcore show for hardcore kids, not whiney little suburban sellouts. So yeah, Protest the Hero went home, and people danced harder than ever for F[COLOR=White]uc[/COLOR]ked Up. End of story :lol:.

Protest the Hero is terrible. The vocalist (or I think the new vocalist?) really does sound like he's whining

RCVA 09-10-2005 09:48 AM

Hahahahahahahahaha they suck.

redstainedeyes 09-10-2005 01:02 PM

****ed Up is good, but that's pretty mean. Those **** elitist hardcore kids.

Rockafella 09-10-2005 07:22 PM

My friend loves them but they just seem like a joke to me...

Yeah, most people have problems with the vocals.

I admit, he used to be really really whiny in the early days of Protest The Hero, but nowadays, I think he's really improved exponatially since their EP.

blacklungfever 09-10-2005 09:28 PM

what an awesome band... their vocalist can get whiny sounding, but I still love them. Hes a lot less whiny in the new stuff though, which is good.

sweboy 09-11-2005 02:58 AM

I dig these guys. Soft Targets Make Softer Graves is such an awesome song. I'll be checking out this new sh[SIZE=2]i[/SIZE]t aswell.

SkaRobotArmy 09-11-2005 09:20 AM

ya he's whiney but i've gotten used to it and now i don't think i'd have it any other way, it fits really well into the music. And besides, its offset by the other members screaming and yelling.

Anti-Prefix 09-11-2005 09:43 AM

Someone upload a good album... I can't find anything on Soulseek.

AIRIC 09-11-2005 10:24 AM

I'll share an album Sam after I get it.

Yeah, I have that song and I think it's pretty good. The vocalist is VERY whiny, but I don't mind it.

Pete 09-11-2005 03:18 PM

wtf, whiny? He has an unusual and high-pitched voice, he doesn't whine. People are fag[i][b][/i][/b]gots when it comes to judging voices.

Awesome band, by the way. "Kezia" should drop arrive at my doorstep any day now.

Yeah people are also [COLOR=White]faggo[/COLOR]ts when it comes to having whiney, girlish voices.

AIRIC 09-11-2005 06:52 PM

People are also f[B][I][/I][/B]aggots when they care about stupid s[B][I][/I][/B]hit like this.

Can't stand this band. Horrible vocals...the music is decent though.

I remember when that happened actually, cept that's now how it happend. It was at the 360 and everyone went insane for protest, then F.ucked Up came on and blew chunks. Here's what the bassist said when I talked to him about this:

[B]diggin' freak nasty without a shovel says:
it was at the 360. people went particualrly nuts for us that night. after the show we went straight to the bar and got dead drunk while the ****ed-Up guys sat in the corner reshading the Xs on their hands.
[/B]
I've seen Protest 27 times, everytime they've been in Toronto since August 2003, minus one or two times. Seriously, if you guys don't like this album, at least apprecaite it. The lyrics are far beyond some lame hardcore band who just sings about how tough they are. Rody's voice, like it or lump it, is outstanding on this album. Let's see you guys sing three octaves at 18... Arif's bass work, Moe's drumming and then the guitars...Dear God. You guys are morons for not realizing what this album is.
