[QUOTE=I0Play0Bass]That's the exact CTTS song I had in mind. You know the part in the huuuge build up intro where everything just drops and it's that one guitar playing the minor harmonic melody and then the tribal drums come in...man, every time, that sends CHILLS up my spine.

The hardcore scene here is awesome and so is the emo scene. I don't go to hardcore shows much anymore because I got bored with mosh pits, pile ups, and sing alongs. I like the emo scene way more (always have, always will) because it's awesome to just stand up front and scream along and see how passionate everyone in the band is.

Western Mass music sucks, except for like maybe 5 bands.

I do enjoy local music. Just now I walked down to my local village pub for a drink, and found a bunch of old men holding instruments... then they starting playing the most blistering, lively blues-rock I've heard in many a year.

SRV, JJ Cale, all that kind of thing.

The main guitarist (looked like he'd been playing solid since his hippy days in the 60s) was using a MIDI pickup to play keyboard solos with his guitar. It was awesome. :D

Listen to them. They're a jam/jazz/funk band from Mass. They're awesome. Their bassist is great, too. I saw them live and they were incredible.

So good.

Yes! I know exactly what you mean! :D I love how it kicks in, with the Rejoice! Rejoice our noble BIRTH! And later on where it goes "wade in the water". I love that breakdown there and where it kicks back in into "let the flood swell" with that guitar line. It's just an incredible song :)

So I'm going to this gig in November.. called Taste of Chaos. The line up is Thursday, Taking Back Sunday, Anti-Flag, Senses Fail, Saosin, Parkway Drive (who I've never heard) and Underoath. I'm really looking forward to seeing anti flag and underoath mostly :)

Also going to see Enter Shikari near the end of the year too. That should be good :D

REJOICE! REJOICE A NOBLE BIRTH!

That album is amazing. I love the "wade in the water" part, too. They're just so incredible. It's beyond me. I can't wait to see them live. I don't know when I am, yet, but I will! :D

SOTUG was here like...yesterday, I think. I wouldn't drop money on it. I think Thursday was the only good band on the roster but I'm not sure.
