buckfutter: Poison The Well In Studio!!!!

buckfutter 06.16.10	Flame me faggots
Apollo 06.16.10	I agree with this list except for me 4 would be 6. Also the song Nerdy rules face.
buckfutter 06.16.10	Nerdy does rule face. Have you ever seen them live, Apollo?
buckfutter 06.16.10	Dammit, where are you, Blake?
Inveigh 06.16.10	my version of "Distance" has Jeff as the vocalist in the liner notes.. did he re-record the vocals for that? I don't have Distance ONLY Makes the Heart Grow Fonder -- is that the version with the old vocalist? I'd rank em You Come Before You The Tropic Rot The Opposite of December (not counting nostalgia effect) Versions Tear From the Red Distance Makes the Heart Grow Fonder
buckfutter 06.16.10	Yes, it is. And I believe he did re-do the vocals for another release. I dunno.... I just happened to be friends with Chris when the group was first coming up, so I have one of the first prints of the EP with Aryeh on it.
accompliceofmydeath 06.16.10	cums
buckfutter 06.16.10	No "Oh-Face?"
accompliceofmydeath 06.16.10	cums with Oh-Face
Inveigh 06.16.10	ah, yeah my first experience with the band was TOoD back when I was a mere 14 year old. Band rules so hard.
Apollo 06.16.10	yes I have, on Sounds of the Underground back in 05, it was a sweet show.
buckfutter 06.16.10	I had the privelege of standing on the side of the stage when they had Thrice opening for them. During Thrice's set I was about 5 feet away from Dustin Kensrue(that's when I fell in love with Thrice) and they tore the place apart. But watching the crowd during PTW's performance from the stage was fucking amazing. No wonder the band has so much energy on stage. It's impossible not to when everyone's either singing along at the top of their lungs or trying to tear each other apart. God, that was amazing.
Inveigh 06.16.10	damn, that must have been a long time ago pit if Thrice was opening for PtW haha. Playing with these guys on the day I graduated college is still one of the coolest experiences of my life. except for before the show we were in the green room and our stupid-ass drummer walks up to Jeff and says "dude, I love your cover of Baby Got Back." (Throwdown was playing with us too)
buckfutter 06.16.10	Lol, Jeff probably laughed his ass off to that. But yeah, this was around 2001. Thrice hadn't put out the Artist in the Ambulance yet, and they were touring with someone(I forget who). Apparently Thrice's old label asked PTW to do a special showing with Thrice, and Dustin and Teppei said they would rather open for PTW out of respect. It was amazing. Dustin is one of the most down-to-earth chill guys you'll ever meet. It was cool watching him, because it was back in their more "hardcore-punky" days.
SlightlyEpic 06.16.10	Botchla was the first metalcore song I ever heard
Inveigh 06.16.10	I remember when Illusion of Safety first came out, I was fucking blown away. Similar to how I felt when I first heard Poison the Well or Deftones. Never heard anything like it at the time.
Apollo 06.16.10	thats fucking rad. I'd love to watch either one of those bands stage-side. I love the distorted harmonics in the intro to Nerdy, it gets me every time.
buckfutter 06.16.10	Lol, yeah, I hear ya. I was actually at one of the recording sessions for TOOD, and when I hear Slit Paper Wrists, I almost came in my pants immediately. Jesus christ, it was amazing.
Apollo 06.16.10	I'm actually listening to Illusion of Safety right now lol. Funny you mentioned it.
Inveigh 06.16.10	man I would've killed to be there for that shit. also, I don't think Jeff found that too funny, at least not at the time. they didn't look too happy to be playing this tiny-ass venue in Dekalb, IL haha. This was about two years ago and there were maybe 40 people there, max.
buckfutter 06.16.10	Damn! Only 40 for Throwdown(I CANNOT STAND THEM!!!) and PTW? That's terrible!
Inveigh 06.16.10	hah, it might have been a little more than 40 by the time those bands came on, but I seriously doubt it. There were more people there for us and the other local bands (a lot of them weren't into metal/hardcore, therefore they left after we played) but the show wasn't promoted properly and it was in a college town on the day of graduation, so everyone was either drunk, busy or both.
buckfutter 06.16.10	I really, really hope I get to go see PTW out here. I bet you they don't touch Nebraska, though
Inveigh 06.16.10	yea I'm actually surprised they played DeKalb, seeing as it's like 55 miles outside of Chicago
ConsiderPhlebas 06.16.10	Don't think I'd alter this ranking at all. I always put December first, although I think objectively YCBY is their best. Still listen to Distance occasionally - that and To Forever Embrace the Sun by Skycamefalling were the first metalcore records I ever bought. Great times. Can't wait to hear their new shit. TTR is sweet.
buckfutter 06.16.10	TOOD was one of my first metalcore purchases, surprisingly, right along with 10.21 from Skycamefalling Jewel, you and I are alot alike
ConsiderPhlebas 06.16.10	Aye, man - good taste is a TMF trait
buckfutter 06.16.10	I'm thinking I might divorce my wife and marry your tastes in music. Is that possible?
ConsiderPhlebas 06.16.10	You just made my tastes in music the happiest tastes in music in the world
buckfutter 06.16.10	Will you, Jewel's Taste, take Nick's Taste to be lawful wedded husband?
Inveigh 06.16.10	what pit, you divorcin' my ass? first two metalcore records I ever got were TOoD and Liberate Te Ex Infernis by Zao. speaking of Zao, I just realized I may not have rated any of their albums on here...
ConsiderPhlebas 06.16.10	Wait, my tastes are the lady? Is this because I mentioned the G word yesterday?
buckfutter 06.16.10	Well, I was thinking more along the lines of a Chuck and Larry type thing, but since you re-mentioned the Glee thing, then yes, your tastes are the lady
BallsToTheWall 06.16.10	1 is their only classic. 2 and 3 are good.
buckfutter 06.16.10	The Don is becoming increasingly troubled by your remarks, Balls. From the wanting to challenge me for power to your most recent comment on this thread, I am beginning to grow tired of your doubting thoughts.
Inveigh 06.16.10	nah, 1 AND 2 are classics, and 3 could very well be in the near future.
ConsiderPhlebas 06.16.10	haha shit, that backfired
BallsToTheWall 06.16.10	I wish PTW lived in the past and tried to make sequels to TOOD
Inveigh 06.16.10	they did try to make a sequal to TOOD, it was called Tear From the Red and it's probably their worst full-length. Though, as previously mentioned, Botchla does rule.
buckfutter 06.16.10	But I adore her this will never happen but I adore HER this will NEVER happen over my DEAD body of course I think ABOUT it burn my path if it does burn my path if it does shape my body as I feel torn shape my body as I FEEL torn BROKEN and if it happens I'll BURN and crawl deeper in my hole darkness ALWAYS says hello and your BURNING BODY will light my way burning body LIGHT MY WAY burning body LIGHT MY WAY
Inveigh 06.16.10	baby baby baby, light my way
buckfutter 06.16.10	That might be a top 5 PTW track for me. 1. Slit Paper Wrists 2. Nagaina 3. Nerdy 4. Botchla 5. Zombies are Good for Your Health I think that's where I stand
Emim 06.16.10	I agree with one, but I actually liked #6.
BallsToTheWall 06.16.10	http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOU8GIRUd_g
ConsiderPhlebas 06.16.10	The bit in Nerdy when the dude sings 'Why have I been given the chance to fly away?' always sends a shiver down my spine, even ten years on. First heard Slit Paper Wrists on a Trustkill sampler (I think) and it fucking blew me away.
buckfutter 06.16.10	Emim- I like 6, it just doesn't stand up next to their whole catalog, though. It's a great release, but nowhere near as good as 1-5
Inveigh 06.16.10	ooh, just 5? damn.. 1. Loved Ones 2. Nerdy 3. Who Doesn't Love A Good Dismemberment? 4. Pleasant Bullet 5. Slow Good Morning SO fucking tough to leave off Botchla, A Wish For Wings That Work, Slit Paper Wrists, Are You Anywhere, Riverside, For A Bandaged Iris and Crystal Lake, but had to do it.
buckfutter 06.16.10	When a band has THAT many good songs, I always take the lyrics and put them into my life, see if I relate. If I do, that's what makes it a top track for me. Nerdy is so much fun to play live on the drums.
Emim 06.16.10	I just meant I liked it more than you did.
buckfutter 06.16.10	Why do you care about Snowflake? Do you know him? Does he call you at home? Do you have a dorsal fin? To train ze dolphin you must zink like ze dolphin! You must be getting inside ze dolphin's head. I am saying to Snowflake, "Akay!... Akay Akay Akay?" und he is saying "AKay Akay!" und he is up on ze tail "Eeeeeeeeee!" und you can quote him!
Inveigh 06.16.10	yeah lyrics are basically how I chose my top 5 there. especially the top 3
ConsiderPhlebas 06.16.10	Ok, not the best, but still my favourite: 1.Nerdy 2.The Realist 3.Sparks It Will Rain 4.Crystal Lake 5.Torn
silkforcalde 06.16.10	I'd rank them: #1 The Opposite of December #2 I / III II / III III / III #3 The Tropic Rot #4 Versions #5 You Come Before You #6 Tear from the Red #7 Distance Makes the Heart Grow Fonder
buckfutter 06.16.10	YCBY before Versions? BLASPHEMY!!!
buckfutter 06.16.10	Shit, I meant after versions, my bad
Inveigh 06.16.10	also, why is #2 so high there silk? I mean, Purple Sabbath rules and all, but still...
Athom 06.16.10	for me it's 2>5>1>and then I don't really like the newer stuff.
Inveigh 06.16.10	but redsky, The Tropic Rot's so fucking awesome...
Athom 06.16.10	The tropic rot is ok but it doesn't draw me in like the sound of the first half of their career.
buckfutter 06.16.10	I used to be one of the people in agreement with you red, until I really gave it a few good listens. Now it's right up there with YCBY and TOOD
Athom 06.16.10	Jeff Moreira's lyrics on the next album should be about his ongoing battle with male pattern baldness.
silkforcalde 06.16.10	she's a ballerina she dances circles around me she tells me what i want to hear but i'm just never satisfied tropic rot haters are wrong. that album is fucking amazing.
Inveigh 06.16.10	lol
