i noticed it mostly in Palms Read

[the difference in mastering]

[QUOTE=Pastorius;17136460]The instrumental album is so cool, so much stuff in the background I didn't notice before.[/QUOTE]

haven't heard the instrumental, peple given pletny of props tho.

you should deff download it, it makes you realize if anything how hard Rody has to work to actually get any melody in his lyrics. There's so much going on it has to be tough

That's why he takes shrooms.

Of course!

what

lets all wait for cocaine to lay down some mad facts about pths drug habits

/waits

i dont think rody has a shroom habit but i was mostly "what"ing sean2332233223's penchant for contributing absolutely nothing, ever, and how he randomly emphasises nothing in particular with every post he makes

pth mixes acid and coke before writing music imo.

yeah i bet that's what they do!

so fauxing metal

very annoying i'm not gonna lie..but creative at the same time

I just learned that Fortress is up for a Juno award (this is probably old news to Canucks).

I can only imagine what Rody may say if they win.

how juno that?

Does anyone even watch the Junos? I mean, the Grammys are bad enough as it is.

They're in Vancouver the day of the Juno's, too so maybe they'll actually go. I should ask. They obviously won't win, though, there's no chance they beat Sloan or Sam Roberts.

Just listened to this band cause of this thread, and at first I was like oh man this is awesome! and the more I listened the more 'meh' I felt about it.

are you serious? what album are you listening to? they are elite....

I listened to the five or six songs they have on myspace. Bloodmeat was really good, but then they all started sounding the same. I mean flying through a scale every ten seconds is only cool for so long.

Not saying they're bad, just not something I would listen to regularly.

wow, uneducated opinion

"flying through a scale" that is a hoot

Their songs sound like a big wankfest to me. I suppose I should have phrased flying up and down the same scale over and over.

If you want to rip on me for not liking a band that's cool. But I didn't really hear anything special about them.

no, i was just pointing out that what you said about them wasn't true

i mean, i couldnt care less if you like them or not, but saying they "[fly] through a scale every ten seconds" make me think you either haven't listened to them or you dont know what a scale is

theyre not dragonforce

To each his own I guess. If I want to listen to wank, I'll listen to Jason Becker.

I would suggest giving them another listen, in no way are they a mindless shred band....leave that to The Human Abstract

I just listened to Fortress in it's entirety and most of Kezia. While there is some moments (there are some wow moments in Turn Soonest to the Sea), I feel like I'm just hearing the same runs/licks recycled over and over.

Shred lick/breakdown/more shred/operatic chorus/acoustic interlude, over and over.

I dunno, I'm just not seeing it. Sorry.

No, but they do lend a wanktastic keyboard solo to them.

Nice username.

[QUOTE=Happy;17144424]Nice username.[/QUOTE]

Dude I was 15

Surprised at how well you're defending yourself, considering your name is 666Dime666. Whatever, opinions man.

oh and

:rolleyes:

Fortress couldn't have been THAT bad, it only ended up # 2 on the album of the year list, that's why i called them elite
