i like
Fall Of Troy! But I laught loudly in the face of Fallout Boy and all that they stand for.
theyre both
=emo=
Your mum is emo
I wouldn't really call The Fall of Troy emo. You'll be calling Bjork or Radiohead emo next.
no
wow
fall of troy are emo?
haha.
you're not too big on the hardcore scene innit.
stay indie.
they are
i have assured grasp on the history of emo from rites of spring through to falloutboy. the guitar textures on the track that was on some rockspund sampler were emo.
and youre a bad person.
ok
if you say so
also
i watched the OC the other day.
i don't
believe you
you are entirely right not to believe me
i have in fact not watched the oc for a good few months now.
you care clearly psychic and i take back what i said about the iguana.
really?
thanks man!
fucking hell
emo my arse, can't tag every new band with this emo tag!
i'll emo your arse
emo it good.
all that they stand for?
tell me more. all i have is the single. and a ticket for their show on monday night.
all fallout boy stand for?
silly haircuts. 15 year old kids that all look identical and have no understanding of this music and where it comes from. They only like a band cause it's scene (see Aiden) and what makes the band 'scene' is their makeup! However, you will no doubt enjoy playing a good round of 'is-it-a-boy-is-it-a-girl. C'mon Raz you know what I'm talking about! saying all this though I have confessed my love for Armor For Sleep to you.
AND
They're music is rubbish. They have the worst song titles in the world,(eg 'Homesick At Space Camp' and 'Sending Postcards From A Plane Crash (Wish You Were Here)' and are renound for the inaudible lyrics as you can see from the link above.
oh it's YOU
soz. yes i see. i think i will have a rad time on monday. and go see all the metal in camden instead.
Emo/Hardcore
I'm really starting to get confused with the whole Emo thing now. I disappear to Afghanistan for 6 months of Hindi-pop overdose, and when I come back there's this sub-genre named after a character from Sesame Street.
Once I realised it wasn't 'Elmo', I see it used to refer to bands that I would've called pop-punk, and suddenly bands I would've called Hardcore are called Screamo. WTF? In mah yoof we called Black Flag, Pro - Pane, Sick of it All, early Beastie Boys, Madball etc hardcore. The preserve of big men with shaved heads and tattoos in white vests and chinos. I walked past the queue for Bleeding Through at the Zodiac last night, and they were all kids of the 'is-it-a-boy-or-a-girl' ilk, the common Adolscentus Emoticus. Not a big man in a white vest to be seen.
Maybe it's my age, but it all sounds the same to me!
i'm listening to them right now
prog hardcore, who'd have thought it could be so good.
:D
ITS ACE
in all fairness
prog anything is fucking great
see also: rush
see also: opeth
surely
fallout boy are more pop punk that emo kids listen too. I'm baffled by catagories. I'd call Elliott Emo though so what do i know
What have they got
against Johnny Truant then?
hahaha
it's about the book that Johnny Truant got their name from. apparently.
I'd call Elliott
emo too. Because they were.
:)
elliott are my favourites :) I love them soooo much. I wish I'd seen them live. Absolutely not enough people know about them. I dont understand if Elliot are emo, that Fallout Boy can also be emo.
Elliott
cancelled their farewell UK tour to go play in Spain instead, the buggers. And they were playing 10 minutes from my house. Grrrr.
Did you get the last live album and DVD set, 'Photorecording'?
they are
frigging mental, like em, not loads, but a bit
fall of troy
i mean, not fall out boy
it's hectic
for sure but I think it's quite cool
Fall of Troy's
Ghost Ship Demos are really good possibly better than their more resent stuff. I think they have to be careful not to release over produced albums and also I hope they can retain some of the spontaneity which made them so so in the first place.
There is an 'emo' influence in some of the vocal parts but I dont thing its particularly offensive.
missing word
so *good in the first place, not so so
THANKYOU
everybody listen to fur-trousers. he is a god amongst men.
Fall Of Troy
are fucking awesome
their ghostship demos/new stuff they've played live shows how exciting they're going to be. The album was a bit disapointing with the overproduction and taming down of some songs, but its fucking solid for the most part.
Excellent band, very talented musicians. The next record they do will be really exciting, I'm sure.
