They're pretty amazing. Start with Jane Doe and go from there. They really haven't put out anything bad, but they really started to get good with When Forever Comes Crashing, then they made Jane Doe which is one of the best metalcore type albums ever made, and then they released two other fantastic releases after that: You Fail Me and No Heroes. They've all got different sounds but they are all distinctly Converge.

Cool, I'll get onto them albums then. Ahh, the 90s, back when I didn't know what metalcore was, and now, sadly, 90 per cent of the kids that like metalcore dress like w**kers. The scene used to be cool as far as I can tell, but scene kids ruined it. The music is still good in some cases though.

Hey, it's been a while Smile  I really dig ASIWYFA  and i'm enjoying the new stuff very much; i appreciate that they added the compositions from their EP.  ("I Capture Castles" rocks Big smile)

I can't wait to get a copy of cryptomnesia


I just checked this project out; is it supposed to be math rock? It kinda has a psychedelic punk feel to me. It reminds me exactly of Omar's TMV style.

Well that's mainly because it's another Omar project. It is interesting, though, listening to these tracks knowing that they were recorded in 2006. It helps explain the inspiration for Hella's There's No 666 in Outer Space album and TMV's decision to bring a guy like Pridgen in to play drums.

MMMmmm... Forgot how beautiful Oceanic can be. It kinda reminds me of a better version of Wavering Radiant LOL

Btw, everyone listen to Rushaholic and check out "And So I Watch You From Afar"  Sure, it's not unlike a style we've heard before, but it is quite rockin'

I must admit to watching lots of Isis and Pelican live footage in anticipation for the upcoming show.... It seems that half the time both bands play like they on the original recording but more energy, and half someone botches the sync of the piece at one point or another. I hope i see them on a lucky night Big smile

What exactly do you want me to break down? Basically, the first two tracks are two of the fastest/br00talist ones. It's going to be heavy, but the tempos and dynamics are more varied as you go along. Don't expect anything totally "clean" on this disc, but expect totally awesome. I recommend listening to Jane Doe start to finish with an open mind. It's brilliant, if often bludgeoning.

^ Thank you!   Well deserved.   Now we just need to figure out the mystery of how the post-rock band "These Monsters..." keeps evading inclusion into the archives Big smile

I met a gay guy once and when he introduced himself he said  "My name is Jack. Really non stop music hurts me."

Just saying.
