I noticed the DVD was two-sided, but I figured the other side would be the other DVDs.

Why anyone would by a reissue of [B]any[/B] album last year is beyond me, unless you don't already own the album. I can't stand this trend of labels like Victory re-releasing albums made 1-2 years ago with maybe 2 bonus tracks everyone has already heard, and a DVD of interviews that are boring.

Maybe the CD is enhanced?

I never had the original CD. So I'm not following the trend.:p

It's almost 4 years ago I downloaded TAYF off of Kazaa (I think at the time, maybe it was even napster). It's hard to believe that I had some demo versions and not final songs. I just heard the final songs of Bike Scene, and The Blue channel for basically the first time.

Bike Scene demo was better then the record version. First of all on the final version the part where Jon Nolan goes:

[i]This is all wrong and it shows
There's certain things I promised not to let you know[/i]

That part on the demo version was flowy and catchy. How they changed it making it seem like he was getting a broom stick up the butt at the time, he even pauses inbetween the lines and it sounds bad. Just bad...Adam on both songs though sounds like he produced that "spitty lisp" way he sings alot better then on the demo's so that was a plus.

Blue Channel demo was horrible. I even deleated it off my mp3 player because I didn't even want to know it existed. The final version is a hell of a lot better especially intro to ending wise.

I knew I had both versions of Great Romances of the 20th Century and I wonder why they took out the movie quote in the beginning, it fit perfectly. Adam's singing was better in the sense it sounded like alot more of the lyrics were emphasized through vocals.

The album is still class.

I bought the Hawthorne Heights reissue because I hadn't bought the original release.

I agree that it's a stupid trend though.

Alot of people know Taking Back Sunday for the Where You Want to Be. It's scene candy at it's best but I never actually bought the original CD. It's informing, and it's a good package for anyone new to the band/never knew there old side. Alot of these kids who like them probably never even knew about the band change up. It's showing respect (not getting wrecked).

Yes it's a marketing campaign but I quite enjoyed everything it gave, because the reissue is at a cheaper price then the original here.

EDIT - P.S. I think TAYF was released in 2001 or early 2002?

I think it's a stupid marketing campaign. Labels should be helping to promote bands with what they are doing now, and not bringing out material that is already out again just to get a few extra bucks.

TAYF was released in 2002

I can understand, if TAYF was only 2 years old, to reissue it but it's nothing new anymore. It's a good album to reissue because it's a classic on it's own. I still rank it up there because there hasn't been a band to contribute to the type of vocals and flow that they had during those songs (not even the new TBS). Victory Records blows a big one.

The thing that makes me wonder is why not milk a new album by them then reissuing one that I downloaded when I was 13. I'm 18 in a few months now...

They knew the album was gold.

My only complaint was, why couldn't they just throw the 2 bonus songs on the main disc instead of having me have to change CD's for 2 damn songs. Like in the c&c reissue... it was so slick, so easy.

That would have made the most sense.

I can understand TAYF, since that is a milestone for today's music scene I think. But some albums like Atreyu, Hawthorne Heights, Alkaline Trio, Motion City Soundtrack, Coheed And Cambria. All of these ruin the point of re-releasing an album, and sort of piss all over the idea of showing a pinnacle album to a new crowd. Besides which, most fans of today's music scene have all these albums already.

I noticed as well that TAYF was remastered slightly. Some of the guitar parts and backing vocals are quieter in some songs if you listen through earphones ("There's No 'I' In Team" is a good example if I remember right).

I love that album a lot though. I'm queueing it after Vheissu finishes

Speaking of, there new album is 4.25.06 supposedly. The album cover definitely looks like a winner compared to a naked baby. I just realized that both TAYF and WYWTB showcase the 152 Exit off of L.I. I think. I didn't even notice.

Yeah. It even had "I, Robot" at the very end, after Junesong acoustic, Elf Tower and Everything Evil demo.

Some are so bad though. The Early November's re-release had [B]no[/B] addition content from the band, and instead only included a sampler from Drive-Thru.

Haha I noticed that the first time I saw WYWTB, and again with Louder Now.

No naked babies = Plus points. I've heard this is a lot better than WYWTB, so I have high hopes for this album now. Before I wrote it off quickly, but I'm looking forward to it, and to seeing them in June.

I never saw the Timberwolves At New Jersey video. It has short haired Adam who looks like he could of passed as a college prep boy on the back of the reissue cover. Jon Nolan himself even looks young. Speaking of Motion City...

Where is it on the Louder Now cover? I like the story behind the Louder Now cover.

The Timberwolves video is quality. I downloaded it a while ago and still love it.

That's an odd Valentines mix as well. Aquabats? Good Charlotte?

yeah.. :upset: HAHA

I don't know whats wrong with the new TBS lineup, but for one thing I think the new stuff shows how much Jon Nolan contributed to the band. There new bass player is really amazing though, I met him on the island a year ago and he's sick. It doesn't really show through TBS but he's a bad boy.

I just heard a demo or two off of the new album. Let's just say, Woah.

It's still not the old stuff but it sounds alot better. Once again I feel like Adam is doing double duty on vocals, and maybe that's why it's not the old stuff.

I've heard 2 songs (Well, one and a half), and they sound decent enough. I'll wait for the full thing though I thinkk.

And I prefer Fred over John. John was great for backing vocals, but Fred is a better guitarist, and I think it shows on the new album.

How did you all like the radio today?

Anyone listening early enough to hear our technical difficulties? heh :upset:

No offence, but I got kind of bored and put Vheissu on. I liked the songs you played though heh.

Hehe...

I actually slept through the radio. I'm sure it was as good as ever.

I missed the first hour and a half because my mom was showing me old videos from the Philippines when I was like 2. I was cute back then. :p

Any [B]Head Automatica[/B] fans on the boards?

If so, you can download 9 demos from the [I]Popaganda[/I] sessions [URL="http://www.headautomatica.net/download/index.php?act=view&id=4"]here[/URL]. I'm just getting them, I'll give my verdict once they are downloaded

I got to see Head Automatica play three or four new songs when I saw them Friday. They sounded really good.

HA is ok.

Psh, lies. Babies are dirty and smelly, not cute /would be a bad dad

Fun fact: At the radio I played some Propagandhi, and on the CD it had a sticker with big writing saying "(Anarchism symbol) Political Punk, Very agressive. Only play tracks 3 or 8 on this CD. All others have profanity. Do not play #14 ever ever ever (Trust us on this).

Oh, and another they had was an 88 Fingers Louie/Kid Dynamite split and the label "Do not play" heh

Head Automatica > You

Daryl Palumbo is a genius.

[QUOTE=ColdFire]Dude WD plays with bands like SM and NUFAN?[/QUOTE]
/late

At the venue last night two seperate tours got booked for the same date so there was SM and NUFAN on the mainstage and Waking Ashland/Sherwood on the second stage. WBD played on the second stage. The two tours caused LOT of problems though because not enough people were working and there were lots of fights between the punks and scenesters

<3 Waking Ashland

[QUOTE=Mute Print]<3 Waking Ashland[/QUOTE]
didnt get to see them. They played at the same time as Suicide Machines. Im going to DL their album though
