Yeah I remember reading about that but that was like awhiiiiile ago, maybe 3 years right? It seems like they've all kind of gone their separate ways, it's understandable, I just hope they reunite to do some more material together again some day, such a damn underrated group in the landscape of 2000s post-hardcore.

Yeah dude don't sleep on Art Damage, Whiskey is Alright in it's Place, but it's Place is in Hell is a banger.
I see a lot of love for their later albums and Art Damage but sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who thinks this first album here is a straight up classic of the post-hardcore genre, especially the whole explosion on the scene of new metalcore and screamo influenced post-hardcore and mathcore shit that was hugely popular in the early 2000s.The "new wave of American heavy metal" if you will.

i deffo think this is underrated in that regard but not to the same extent as you. but now i think of it, this is one of the first lps i can think of to do that sorta balls to the wall mishmash of styles that then became popular. (been thinking for a while of doing a chronology of american core)

also i always thought this video was brilliant just because theyre giving it their all and the crowd looks like they dont give a fuck. evidence for them being ahead of their time perhaps?

Ha I haven't watched that video in years and it is pretty hilarious now that you've mentioned that and I'm actually noticing it for the first time.
I'm glad they grew out of their scene roots into a more progressive and technical band, because it won them a much larger audience and a lot more respect in the metal community but there's a raw, youthful energy to this that I think absolutely perfectly sums up the sound of the American independent and underground metal/punk scenes of the late 90s/early 00s, when metalcore and screamo and post-hardcore took over everything and there was just an energy that I can only imagine was similar to earlier scenes and eras like the first wave of hardcore punk in the late 70s/early 80s. The early 00s were some of my formative years and it felt like everyone had a core band of some kind, you could find some really good bands almost anywhere you went. When that shit died off in the later 00s I drifted into other scenes but when I think of those peak days of that whole era in post-hardcore and metal this band is the first thing I think of. It helps that they were more punk influenced on this album than a lot of the straight up metalcore acts they were being clumped together with by the press at the time.
Hey if you do some kind of -core scene write-up/list/whatever let me know man, I'll read the shit out of that. I feel like we're reaching the point where enough time is starting to pass now from the death of that scene where people are going to start being nostalgic for it and want to start writing books or filming documentaries about it the same way you saw with hardcore punk or grunge or any other number of sub-genres and scenes that really blossom.

Had on the bright side, she could choke pop up on my shuffle. Forgot how good this was. I feel like I could jam this or art damage whenever, but gotta be in the mood for taom for some reason.
