Was just checkin' out the Killswitch myspace and I believe Protest will be on tour with them in Canada in Sept alongside with In Flames and Between the Buried and Me.

Going to be a sweet show, now a bit off topic, what's a good CD to start with for BTBAM?

DBlitz 06-20-2009 09:17 PM

if you want to get into all of them, just go from The Silent Circus to Alaska to Colors

Tyler 06-20-2009 10:21 PM

Just got back from watching Jack Marks and Lost Wages. Really good country/folk act, features Arif on stand-up. Was a very good set, fluid for a band who hasnt been together long. Jadae Kelly made an appearance, too, sang some harmonies on a track.

the easiest to get into i'd say would probably be colors, but definitely check out their whole discography.

Benzilla 06-21-2009 01:23 PM

Did Luke and Tim play the acoustic codas on Kezia? I was listening to the album again in the car recently and what really struck me was how well they transitioned in style (if they transitioned at all) from what sounds good on an electric guitar to what sounds pretty on an acoustic.

Damn that's a badass tour. But yeah what he said, Silent Circus, Alaska, then Colors.

Marco did the acoustics on Kezia. I don't think he wrote them, though.

Benzilla 06-22-2009 09:35 AM

I'm going to guess that the concept for the next album is going to have something to do with Greek mythology. Something tells me that they didn't release a three-shirt suite with stylized pictures of Greek gods just because it looks cool.

Mute Requiem 06-22-2009 09:52 AM

nah man it's definitely going to be about ancient mesopotamia this is just a trick

alytee123 06-22-2009 10:00 AM

It's going to be about Thomas Edison.

Xplisit 06-22-2009 10:32 AM

its going to be about terry fox

alytee123 06-22-2009 10:48 AM

or Michael J. Fox.

Tyler 06-22-2009 11:08 AM

Do you want me to just ask if they have anything in mind?

JizzInMyPants 06-22-2009 04:27 PM

AWESOME! i thought btbam didnt like protest enough to tour with them again...will be sweet if they go to ATL though

Tyler 06-22-2009 04:32 PM

The reasons for them not touring together were pretty juvenile and my understanding is that it was a bunch of wires getting crossed. Are they actually scheduled to tour together? I haven't seen or heard anything. I know they're doing a one-off festival with the Roots and some others in August, and then Europe, but I haven't heard anything else.

Dimmu Burger 06-22-2009 04:43 PM

Yes they're touring through Canada. Those two and In Flames and another decent band I remember.

James46n2 06-23-2009 12:37 PM

It's In Flames and Killswitch Engage co-headlining, with BTBAM and Protest opening.

I wonder who plays longer, Protest or BTBAM... It's a Canadian tour, so I'm hoping it's Protest. I love BTBAM but there's something shitty about going to a huge show and seeing your favourite band first.

alytee123 06-23-2009 12:43 PM

It just makes you a lot more awesome! I wish that tour came over here, would love to see it.

James46n2 06-24-2009 08:26 AM

Haha, yeah, I'm definitely gonna go. And it looks like BTBAM will be opening the show, yay.

Countorus 06-24-2009 02:31 PM

that sucks! btbam will have a reletivley short set since they are up first, they should be the ones headlining :(

as for protest i've seen them many times and i can't wait to see them again!

Tyler 06-24-2009 09:56 PM

I haven't seen Protest in forever. It's weird because I used to see them more or less bi-weekly. I've seen them over 40 times but haven't seen them in probably a year.

JizzInMyPants 06-24-2009 10:55 PM

we no cocaine we no.

The Feeding 06-25-2009 12:07 AM

I only started going to the shows a bit before Kezia came out, so I'm in, like, the teens or something. Last time I saw them was that Christmas show at the shitty Sound Academy.

...Goddamn everything - they played a secret show on Saturday in Toronto! With.. ugh... Stereos.

[QUOTE=Countorus;17323795]LOL with stereos? thats a great line-up my friend[/QUOTE]

Haha. Obviously, Stereos are one of the worst bands ever - I'm still bummed I missed a $5 Protest show, though.

Countorus 06-25-2009 01:36 PM

That 'secret' show was a joke. Apparently they only played 3 or 4 songs.

[QUOTE=bringonthebreakdown;17323802]you will never cease licking rody's balls will you =p[/QUOTE]

How is pointing out that I used to see them a lot 'licking' his balls?

Anthracks 06-26-2009 01:15 PM

Tyler 06-26-2009 01:15 PM
