Yeah.

You know it is easy to find when there is a constant 5+ copies of it at the local Best Buy.

Well not at my local Best Buy.

They are a band I don't mind downloading from because I don't think they sell a lot of albums anyways, but have a pretty big live following, and I know I will be seeing them if they ever come anywhere close to me. I'm not justifying downloading, its just this is one of those times where that rationale actually works. Its there own fault for not even touring in my state.

Tyler 12-20-2007 11:46 PM

You don't have to justify downloading. They do not care if you download their music, I'll tell you that flat out.

The main concern is that if you download an album you support them, see them, buy merch, offer 'em booze. The important stuff.

Yep they even say that when they play live. "Download our stuff, we don't care."

**** I need to see them live.

And I will be doing that. Next time you offer them booze, tell em to head my way.

Tyler 12-20-2007 11:57 PM

Just download until you can find a hardcopy. You'll want one when you find it anyways. I know I'm dying for the Fortress retail because I want lyrical confirmation and to see if my name is mentioned :$.

the keyboard solo in [I]Limb from Limb[/I] is really gay and stupid (thanks Vadim) but the piano coda in Spoils is so awesome that it makes up for everything. So morose and utterly hopeless sounding.

So what was the suprise...? Or were those lyrics?

Against Miik! 12-21-2007 12:00 AM

Don't know if your joking. Do you have some kind of personal relationship with the band? Or are you just a megafan (not that that is bad thing they are awesome)?

Pals with two of them, but been seeing them since 03. Hard not to have some sort of relationship, yknow. Big fan though, obviously.

Yeah, a guy I know listens to all the usual generic metalcore... Devil Wears Prada etc.... and Protest.

Amazing how in the midst of so many bad bands that Protest is there. :lol:

Tyler 12-21-2007 12:07 AM

I want to see the ninjas try to dance to this album. There's maybe one chunk where you can dance but the rhythm is only consistent for like 4 seconds.

I wasn't until you said that. Then for a split second I thought that you might. But then I realized you wouldn't. Whatever. Only 39 more days...

publicastration 12-21-2007 12:08 AM

Hmm, I think they could get a little bit of excercise off of the beginning riff of Bloodmeat. (after the dissonant stuff)

ONLY! :(

And all my money will be gone by then because I have to buy myself an ipod, my current player is nearly dead.

Against Miik! 12-21-2007 12:09 AM

Would you guys consider The Number 12 Looks Like You to be in the same category? I saw them and Devil Wears Prada this year at I think it was Sounds Of The Underground. They both put on a pretty energetic show. Don't worry, I didn't actually pay for the show, since most of the bands there were crap. I worked it, which is absolutely the most fun job ever. Get to go see free shows and crap. Hopefully Protest will be around next summer, because its the kind of venue they would play. Sounds...was cool this year because it was the Cleveland show so they let Mushroomhead headline and have a longer set. They are a band to see if thats your kinda sound.

Tyler 12-21-2007 12:10 AM

Protest is playing a huge North American tour from January to March.

illpressureurhinges1 12-21-2007 12:11 AM

I don't think TNTLLY would be in the same category as PTH...

Against Miik! 12-21-2007 12:17 AM

A lot more screaming, true. I looked on PTH's website and the only dates listed are in Canada. Thats not really an option. I mean I could do it, but there aren't a lot of bands I would travel 2 hours to see.

illpressureurhinges1 12-21-2007 12:18 AM

Look on their myspace. They have dates of shows all across the US.

I'd say at least 50% of the vocals on Fortress are harsh.

It's a full North American tour, trust me on this. They're away from the end of January to the end of March.

OIC. They just have there most current dates on the site homepage.

Regardless, I will have to wait till March to see them, and even that might be a stretch. I'm not sure if I will home from school at that time, but if I'm at school, I will be I think less than an hour away.

edit: no, its still like 2 hours, but Cinci will be my best chance.

illpressureurhinges1 12-21-2007 12:32 AM

I have to wait until the 15th of March...

Tyler 12-21-2007 12:36 AM

I don't plan on seeing them this tour. As much as I'd like to see them retire older stuff and fumble through new stuff, I can't sit through Silverstein or Devil Wears Prada.

illpressureurhinges1 12-21-2007 12:39 AM

As well as A Day To Remember.
