THE LUMMOX posted:oh holy poo poo Taken is playing a reunion show in march at chain reaction. They need to stop fagging around in Mikoto and Circa Survive and do some new material. They're also releasing a B-Sides album. I'm just pissed they're touring Japan (even if its only for a few days) and not playing the east coast. I got so excited when I saw the news, only to die a little inside when I realized theres no way I'm going to make it to any of the shows.

theEZkill posted:i hear the more you talk poo poo on slightly popular bands your hxc cred goes up. confirm / deny? Confirm, duh! I honestly had no idea they were popular. I just work with a kid who plays them all the time and I can't stand them. This is just the first time I'd ever heard them mentioned by anyone else. Anyone check out the new Circle Takes the Square song? Doesn't live up to As the Roots Undo at all. So its kind of disappointing, but its not a bad song. I'll have to hear more off the new album (it'll happen one day...right?) before I pass too much judgment.

Dillinger posted:In case anyone from here was debating going to see Converge, Red Chord, Baroness, and Genghis Tron tonight in Worcester, MA, the word I'm getting is that the show didn't sell well downstairs and has been moved upstairs. To the small 500-600 capacity club. I can't wait. I really wish I didn't get a bunch of money stolen from me, I was planning on going to this. But I can't pay for gas and tolls with my hopes and dreams. I've tried.

Dillinger posted:Converge show tonight was fun. Packed house...Genghis Tron has a new lightshow and loving killed it. Baroness, first time seeing them (FINALLY) and I couldn't enjoy it because while I was up close, it was so loud that I actually lost my hearing in my right ear temporarily (don't do 10 years of punk, hardcore and metal shows without hearing protection gently caress! Conduit? Dammit, every time I've seen them I hoped they would play it. Although last two times I saw them they played Forsaken and Locust Reign, which was awesome. I got into Converge too late (2004) and theres a lot of songs I'll never get to see live. I'd kill to see Color Me Blood Red...hell even just the beginning would be awesome. I'm a little guy and I don't mosh, but I would wreck faces while screaming "please love just come home again." It makes sense that they'd get sick of constantly touring and playing the same old songs for years though. I haven't been to a hardcore show in...hmmm...a long loving time. I think the last one I went to was in August or September. Went to a couple metal shows in October. Last time I saw any show was loving Anthony Green around New Years (a girl wanted to go, so I'm not THAT big of a human being). Luckily theres a Blacklisted show in May and Killing the Dream, Ruiner, Trap Them in June. I miss going to shows.

The Touche Amore split they just put out is awesome. I loved Somewhere at the Bottom of the River...when I first heard it, but it gets old pretty fast. It has a handful of standout tracks that I keep going back to though, the first track never stops being great. I nearly poo poo myself when I saw the Envy tour announced (in this thread). I have all their TRL pressings except Insomniac Doze. When was their last American tour? I can't remember them coming around since I've been listening to them, but I might have just missed it. Bought a ticket for the NYC date and plan to skip classes for the day to accommodate for the hour train ride and then being lost as gently caress in the city.

They played a couple shows this fall and no one wanted to drive the two hours with me to see them with 1994!, My Heart to Joy, Algernon Cadwallader, and a handful of others...We Were Skeletons maybe?

LtKenFrankenstein posted:Anyone here into Single Mothers? They put out two EPs in the past year or so, they're pretty great. Kinda like a more emo Suicide File but instead of songs about hating republicans they do songs about pills, bad hookups and pregnancy scares. Very excited to see them open for Title Fight in November (more excited than I am to see Title Fight, frankly). I am so loving excited to see Single Mothers in November. The only Title Fight song I've heard is the one they released off their new album that apparently doesn't sound like any of their older material. But Single Mothers and Pianos Become the Teeth are enough to get me to drive out to CT for the show.

New England centric hardcore is the best hardcore Sadly I don't have any money. Botch and Converge records usually go for a mint, you lucky bastard (I coul never part with my Converge vinyl and I WISH I had picked up some Botch before We Are the Romans was going for $100+) I like combatwoundedveteran and I LOVE pink vinyl, so if you don't sell it I've got $5 with your name on it

Son of a bitch! I had planned on going to the Algernon/Joyce Manor/The World is.../Sirs show a couple weeks ago but it sold out before I could confirm transportation to CT. At least I saw them at the last Snowing show Speaking of emo, The Saddest Landscape are trying to kickstart a repress of their first two albums with a bunch of cool extras. Only 12 days left and they're only halfway there, so it's not looking good. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/thesaddestlandscape/the-saddest-landscape-deluxe-vinyl-reissues

I've never disliked a Converge album. At this point I doubt I ever will. I almost never listen to anything off of Axe to Fall, but I still really liked it. Not sure where the new one is going to stand as far as replaying it goes, but for now I'm in love with it. The title track is definitely going on any Converge related playlists I make in the future though, holy poo poo.

Putting out vinyl is a huge headache, mostly due to the limited number of pressing plants. I've had some preorders delayed for MONTHS because the test presses kept coming back with problems. I always give labels the benefit of the doubt. Hell, it took me so long to email Count Your Lucky Stars about my Snowing LP preorder that I immediately got a response of "Holy poo poo dude, it's been out for months! We are so sorry!" and had a package on my porch the next day. That being said, I just got that email and came here to be sad about it Edit: and now this article just popped up on my twitter http://propertyofzack.com/post/32887466878/poz-perspective-why-your-vinyl-is-not-at-your-doorstep how appropriate

The "Run on" screams right near the end of the song "Jane Doe" are the best thing ever. I was on a plane that hit turbulence (plane dropped significantly, if I hadn't been holding my ipod it would have hit the ceiling) RIGHT as that part kicked in on my headphones and it's still the craziest adrenaline rush I've ever had. That album is such an emotional ride and I don't think anything is ever going to top it as my "favorite album." I've still never see them play it though, which sucks. I have seen them play The Saddest Day, so there's that.

What...what is this? I have never felt older than I did after clicking that link. Saw The World is a Beautiful Place and I Am No Longer Afraid to Die in a basement last Friday. They were awesome as usual, but god drat are college kids douchebags. A bunch of shirtless bros were pushpitting despite the complete lack of room. This led to anyone standing in the front getting pushed into the band and their equipment. I'm used to that type of environment, but I'm also used to crowds having at least some respect and common sense about it.

ruddiger posted:I was right up front when they played here in LA and that dude's seriously loving awesome up close. So much energy at that show, not to mention the great sets that Nails and Torche had. I was going to buy a shirt from all three bands but only had enough for two (Nails and Torche). The whole band has insane energy. Every time I've seen them I've been terrified that Kurt was going to accidentally split my head open open. I was scared that Jake would hit me with the mic cord, but then it happened a bunch and it wasn't that bad. The Converge/Mastodon/Priestess tour was the last time I saw them until their free show last year at the House of Vans. I didn't get to see them on the AWLWLB tour and I'm pissed/depressed. I'm just glad I got to see them play a few small venues with small crowds. Being able to stand against the stage without getting crushed or shoved out of the way was awesome. Hell, I would even stage dive and get my spot back somehow.

I have to miss the PBTT/Single Mothers show next week (as well as the Dads show the same day). Now that I have a job and can afford to drive out to CT for shows I don't have the time to do so and it's pretty much bullshit. I saw TA twice and PBTT three times last year, but it's been awhile and I'm almost too old to stage dive so I need to get as much of that poo poo in as I can. I wonder what label the split will be on. Not that it really matters, I just like giving my money to Topshelf.

Bulletproof Tiger posted:Holy poo poo, PBTT/TA split is going to be great, I saw them on tour last year and they both owned. Honest Sleep and I'll Get By were both amazing to see live, especially Honest Sleep, with the whole crowd screaming the ending and just going loving crazy. The end of Honest Sleep is always ridiculous, probably the craziest pile ons I've seen outside of the beginning of Bane's "Can We Start Again" I'm actually nervous to hear new PBTT songs. The Lack Long After is just THAT loving good. Seriously one of the most powerful albums I've heard in a long time. It's actually emotionally exhausting to listen to. When I saw them with TA it was right after TLLA came out so not everyone was completely into it when they closed with "I'll Get By" (I jumped off a monitor to get close enough to scream a few lines, because I'm that guy). A few months later I saw them and everyone went crazy when they closed with it. It's not the kind of song you'd expect people to go nuts for when you're listening to it, but when you see it happen it makes so much sense.

I think it was Poison the Well a couple years ago that got robbed but their post about it was just "Don't send us any money, we had insurance! Don't be an idiot, get insurance!" I feel bad for those kids though and it's a hosed up situation. They should have had Gaza play a set around the van as a security system while they were at Denny's.
