why do people not like this band? they're so fun and wild. so what if the song lacks structure like a damn pop song would, it's metal oriented. there's supposed to be weird time signatures and massive amounts of guitar wankery and obscure vocals.

all of which in fact rule with this band.

Rody Walker has been quoted as saying it will have a “more progressive sound”; Tyler Munro of SputnikMusic (a
close friend of the band) has said it will feature more “groove”. So we can say it is progressively groovy.


The above quote is from: http://allprotest.com/scurrilous/

Just thought it was funny.

I saw them 2 times. Once before on Fortress and they were the most on point I have ever sen them(because Rody wasn't drunk). One time at warped tour and they were great also except Rody then was drunk lol.

Musically they are always on point when I see them, hell even their YouTube videos that I see they are great musically. Rody has on and off day but still remains above average most of the time. They are nowhere near TERRIBLE imo.

No it didn't. It came online a day before the US release date, but that's because it was released early in Japan. Trust me on this. I didn't leak. I got hundreds of e-mails and last.fm messages of people offering to pay me to leak it (which is hilaaaaarious). It was out the 22nd (I think?) and "leaked" (retail copy was legally available in Japan) on the 21st. You can even go to my review and check the dates if you're that concerned.

im sure the repercussions would not be anywhere near the worth of some easy scrilla

Yes they would be. When you're trying to work in music journalism, being blacklisted by Universal Music isn't exactly the best way to get off to a good start. The reason it didn't leak was that the hard-copy promos were uniquely beeped (and labelled) and the digital ones had your information encoded within. It was surprisingly non-invasive.

And that's going to be the case with this as well? We certainly hope not ;)

Anyways, I hope Jadea Kelly is featured as much as on Kezia, if not more, on the new one.
