[QUOTE=feav233;17658434]i decided to listen to fortress again, eh, the vocals prevent me from gettin into this album/band, i think some of the riffs are pretty cool though[/QUOTE]

I thought the vocals were kinda whiny when I first listened to these guys, but now he is one of my favorite singers. Give him a few more listens.

I was exactly the same at first, but now I'm really fond of the vocals.

Sunflower Avenue is so upbeat. can't get over how catchy that intro is.

yea, thats what i thought about it, but i'll give it a couple more listens, still think i'm going to try to get the instrumental album though, i imagine that if the vocals don't grow on me i'll still enjoy the instrumental

stop talking about syncope threshold

They haven't made it to the studio yet for this new album. Still writing/rehearsing.

any hints as to what it sounds like yet?

proabably a lot of awesome

Started following them in the Spring of 2003, and they used to play pretty much weekly (sometimes a few times a week) so I saw them often. Eventually became casually acquainted with some of the dudes in the band.

+rep

So... have they played Bone Marrow live yet?:) Somebody should definitely record that celebratory event.

Word on the street is, they're playing it on this short tour before they go to the studio. Tim says it will probably be the first and last time they play it live.

Someone needs to record that **** and post it on youtube. I'd love to see Bone Marrow live.

what's the deal?

what

ive meant to ask

who the **** would carve Kezia into a window at warden station

punk kids hopped up on dope

everytime i see it i facepalm


i mean its a great album and all but like
why

what's the deal w/ them not playing Bone Marrow? did somebody die during recording it or sumthin?

the song is pretty reliant on the keyboard stuff and it's kinda hard for timmy to play that while he's playing guitar

that's how i see it at least

ah, gotcha. i guess i'm not up to date with PtH lore.

Rody needs to step it up, learn keyboard, and pull a Tommy Rogers.

agreed

I saw that vid of them playing Limb From Limb, and when the synth solo part came Rody was like "there's a keyboard solo here... and we don't have a keyboard player .." so they just played the backing parts and it was embarrassing lol

I'm seeing them tomorrow support Propagandhi, gonna be an awesome show. I really hope that they will play Bone Marrow.

I know they're playing it on their Canadian dates next week but IDK about the UK tour. You might be the test subjects.

In his defense, that was a Dragonforce keyboard solo. Who knows if it was sped up on the album.

haha true

it was probably played at 10bpm and they studio magick'd it up to 300

I saw them play it live in London and the Dragonforce keyboardist ran on stage, played the solo, and buggered off. True story.

That's basically how it came about, too. Apparently he really wanted to do something on the album and they figured that would be the best spot. Tim said he had a finished solo back to them in, like, an hour.

Oh and guitarists who like PTH there's gonna be a little something coming your way in the next couple of months.

curiosity piqued
