Yah... I don't know, but I'm just excited for PTH and FoT. And the main thing is that one of the shows is honestly like 5 minutes from my house, so I'm pretty stoked about that.

nioce

I know who the special guest is supposed to be, I hope it went through. It's the tour I was hinting about earlier. That's assuming it happens.

The reason they've been missing dates is essentially because of a shake-up. They're unhappy with their foundation (ie: backing), and as far as I can assume, they're exploring options. Obviously unhappy with their touring, be it the bands, the demographic or the cities, I'm glad to see them take a step back.

The new video they're working on seems like it'll be cool. I dont know what song it's for yet but it looks like it's in an old run down school gymnasium as well as a parking lot of sorts. Either that or my snooping is misguided.

[QUOTE=illpressureurhinges1;16096050]There was an update on here. They're going on tour with Chiodos, Fall of Troy, and a "special guest". Look on here, theres a banner on there for it.

Is it just me or...didn't that tour already happen?

That tour actually looks decent.

[QUOTE=Shattered_Future;16096421]Is it just me or...didn't that tour already happen?[/QUOTE]

Just you. It's supposed to happen in a month or so. Assuming they get their situation sorted.

I clicked on that poster, and I took me to some dates in February...

Which passed already...

Why do my friends think Protest the Hero and Chiodos are similar?

Some people these days need to stop only paying attention to vocals, jeez.

The vocals aren't similar either.

It's just the fact there is high-pitched singing.

I don't know a single person whose first impression wasn't "Sounds like Chiodo vox."

Get better friends.

Yes, because a person's taste in music is what determines friendship.

Lol they sound nothing alike.

I used to think Craig Owens sounded like a crappy version of Rody but that similarity has wore off with each PTH listen.

Tim used to have a 10 inch nipple hair.

True story.

I heard a Chiodos song (The Words 'Best Friend'...) and thought the vocal melodies were catchy, but his tone is just so off putting. Especially when he layers a high pitch, it makes me wince. I always think when I hear it that if Rody sang/screamed that song, it would be pretty nice.

Craig's tone is just not normal. Reading YouTube comments is embarrassing just to look at, with people saying Craig is the best singer ever and he is awesome. The band itself is barely average, with boring music and, of course, the vocals the way they are.

There is no comparison though.

I posted that on YouTube. It was really one of the more disgusting things I've ever seen. He was actually going to contact some authorities and see if it was a record or not and then it fell out.

i really like their guitar tone on Fortress i decided today. Its really full and crushing and it makes me want to bang my ****ing head

Wow I've felt the same way for a while.

It fell out? :lol:


I see you on like, every PtH video on youtube.

I want to see Tyler.

That's like when I put on Mew and someone was like this sounds just like Boys Like Girls.

Chiodos is so bad.

Does anybody know what the album name Kezia originates from/ what it means?

You mean the actual name, or what it is?

All I can tell you is she is a character in the story.

The only real significance is is that Kezia is a biblical name, she was one of Job's three daughters. The Book of Job of course playing into the album at least somewhat.

This video of Tyler is better





...funnier

I've heard it's for Sequoia Throne.

I'll ask if I get the chance/decide it matters to me.

I don't want to backtrack so I'll ask upfront.

Cocaine, what's your connection to PTH?

Just got to know 'em a few years ago through the TO music scene really. Ended up chummin' it up with r/f and Timba. Don't really know the other guys too much, I used to talk to Rody now and again but that's about it. Well, that and Moe and my friend have this gross and unending sexual tension.

But yeah, they used to play like weekly a four years ago. I used to go. Met them, started seeing them at other gigs, blablabla.

Hahahaha..

If only they had a small. I have no idea how they got the license to use that image to be honest.

Silverstein Tour News! IMPORTANT!

Dear Clit-licking Cloonies and ****-smoking Ball-Wranglers
it is my unfortunate duty to inform you all that we will not be continuing on the Silverstien tour. From the often hatefilled and frequently dissapointed messages our myspace has been recieving in relation to the cancelation of the texas dates (specifically Dallas) I've decided that dropping those dates has impacted those who enjoy our music like feces in a clogged up colon... or is that compacted? I don't know.

With this daunting notion comes the realization that there will be more dissapointed emails to come as soon as your beaty little eyes graze this letter. I apologize profusely to those of you who bought tickets with the specific intention of seeing us play. If you sincerely have a problem with this that can not be resolved with me whispering an apology softly in your ear and kissing you upon your forehead.... we are willing to pay the travel fair to get you to my mothers house where we will sort things out like human beings... and I do mean bare knuckle boxing. However, dually note underneath this thin pail flesh, I am actually Kimbo Slice.

Now what I'm sure you're all eagerly awaiting is a reason, some sort of crude justification to help your rage subside.. if you're listening to 'after the eulogy" this may be a serious problem. Without exposing specifics I will attempt to explain. While on tour recently, we realized our internal structure was built on a whimsicle foundation. We have become a disorganized touring band, and it's left the five of us exhausted and miserable. Ergo, we are revamping, whipping our team (and cream) into shape, polishing our rims, straightening our brims, and making a stab at semi-professionalism. Though dropping a tour may seem like a very unprofessional thing to do, we need this time to get our **** back on track.

I'd like you all to know that this time will not be used to just get drunk, hang ten and smooch babes, though I assure you we have set aside some time to do that. Your disappointment will be repaid in the flesh we plan to leave upon the roads this year, as we drag our bodies to each show. We'll be back in the states on April first to start the tour with Chiodos. Hold fast to dreams duckies.

God Dammit! I was so stoked to see them this Friday.
