There's a lot of similarities here to BFMV. Both good and bad lol



Never made the connection

Never listened to this band until today. Can’t figure out why they’re famous - especially if this is the best they've got.

@emim probably explains why I ended up in a BFMV rabbit hole in early high school after being enamored by this.



I remember this was this band, Glamour of the Kill, that sounds like a mix of this and BFMV

Only after this album though. Went to complete shit once Craig became the vocalist.

Ronnie's vocals have just always been grating to me and I feel the same way I did hearing this at 15

I think it's cuz blessthefall was popping off right before he joined and they wanted him back in that band. I never went beyond the debut for both bands though so I can't speak too much on it.

Because His Last Walk and Dying is Your Latest Fashion are FAR better than anything that came after for each band. Not to mention how incredible The Word Alive demos with Craig were sounding before he jumped ship for ETF. Lots of wasted potential after these debuts.

Those Craig demos were neat yeah, i felt that there were quite a few songs from the ETF era i enjoyed more - harder than you know, something, world around me, and picture perfect all come to mind for purely a vocal showcase

there's more to it for me but i think i've beaten that horse on enough threads

What Feather said. Also, I don't like hair metal at all so I was completely against ETF's change in sound. I was never a huge blessthefall fan but I think they wrote better songs with Craig as the frontman.

That debut EP Craig did with the Dead Rabbitts project was also really good. Shame its not streaming anywhere. Like the dude has a lot of good starts with projects but falls off afterwards.



Also Glamour of the Kill lmao I forgot about that band

I more so compared this to hair metal cuz this is where mainstream post hc became more about image/marketing/catchiness than the sonics. Sure bands like Eighteen Visions had the traditional "scene" imagery early on but this is where it really hit big w the kids in my area

True but you can't deny there's a cornball glitzy type of sound adjacent to hair metal and GnR (who I also don't like) that they implemented once Craig joined. At least that's what I remember. Haven't listened to that junk in 15 years.
