Josh's vox fell into the same spot that Silent Planet's used to. Just too high and feel strained

Whoooa I wouldn't go that far. Josh was definitely pushing at times but the SP guy was in his own league.

Yeah Josh's vocals could get repetitive and sometimes a bit strained, but I'd bet he would sound much more natural in that range than Ryan in the latest track.

Phil is still in tho and I always thought he was an underrated guitar player. Dude is a riff machine

Ryan only sounds bad on the new song when he really reaches for those high notes, I think he sounds passable otherwise, particularly when he puts some grit in there.

I've always enjoyed Ryans voice for Miss May I, he sounds decent enough here as well. his never been like an outstanding vocalist just good enough to get by really.

Wasn't 100% in love with this album but Blinded is such a perfect classic AILD track. Pure adrenaline rush.

Weird how all these people don't want to be in this band fronted by the wannabe wife killer. Also apparently Ryan unfollowed Tim on everything immediately but didn't do the same to the other members lol. Tim being "reformed" seems to be a load of shit to me. Lyrics like those on Burdened certainly don't help.

It's no loss to the band either, though. Ryan is a fucking awful singer who barely scrapes by in the studio. His live performances are horrific.

Damn, dude didn't even last through the release of the album he recorded for lol. Wonder what's keeping Phil still in the band, he's the only classic-lineup member left

Tim is clearly a complete an utter douchebag with no real grasp on reality. I wish he kept his man boobs from prison.

Lmao now their tour manager is gone too and their European tour is cancelled. Dude also said he’s still cool with Phil in his post.

Tim could have handled his divorce a thousand different ways, but the choice he made will haunt him for the rest of his life. Dude will never live this down, and now his band is falling apart for a second time. Think it's best to just call it a day after the new record. Especially with Ryan leaving, who's gonna be singing live now?



Phil should just bounce too at this point and be a full time member in Saosin

Tough to argue against much said here. If I'm honest with myself I'm only feigning interest because Ken Susi is in the band, along with looking back favorably to the SAS lineup when they kicked all kinds of ass live.

If I had my way I'd take Phil and Ken and stick them in a new band with the other OG metalcore lunatic Keith Buckley since Many Eyes doesn't do much for me.

It was pretty obvious from the start that Tim hadn't changed. I can *somewhat* understand why the original members wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt at first (except Sgrosso who's just Tim's bitch) but the mercs who came in afterwards knew what they were getting into with him so I feel no sympathy for them when they finally realise he's still a giant douche.
