jerrytimes Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Just meant writing relevant music. There are bands still putting out stuff and the vast majority of people stopped caring a long time ago. Example - Metallica. I'm out of the loop on this band and really didn't realize they were still writing music. But obviously it seems this band doesn't fall into the Metallica category. I guess I need to go back and listen to some of their stuff after the first album. Anyway. Was just curious. Hope the best for you guys and them! I know I'm months late on your post but come on. mewithoutYou has not stopped in those 15 years and their core of fans is still there. Also, whether or not you like Metallica anymore doesn't make them irrelevant. (In saying that, I am not a fan of Metallica anymore) They still sell out arenas, so they are still relevant as well.... maybe not as much as they were in 1991, but their fans are filling the seats nightly.

jerrytimes Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 I can't get over how incredible this album is lyrically. I know a lot of people don't like the effect on his vocals this time around but I think it really adds a lot to the songs. Makes them a tad darker, which in my opinion is perfect for these songs. My wife and I are seeing them on the 14th in Indy. Can't wait! I love how every album of theirs is so different, yet not at the same time. They are one of the few bands where the vocal style changes so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ejc625 Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Damn that does suck. I'm sure it will be well worth the wait though. Is the delay for all pressings, or just the deluxe edition? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Shivers Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 About ten listens in. I don't love everything, but damn that last song is killing me. I bought "Ten Stories" and downloaded "Pale Horses" on the same day. Ive also listened to them about 10-12 time each. My opinion is "Ten Stories" is WAY better than "Pale Horses". I also agree the last song on "Pales Horses", Rainbow Signs is incredible. I think "Brother, Sister" is their best work though. Just one mans opinion folks!

throwgncpr Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Ten Stories is probably my least favorite mwY record, but they haven't released a bad album yet. I love Pale Horses. I don't think it will top Brother, Sister for me, but it's damn good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just one mans opinion folks! I have yet to listen to Ten Stories and Its All Crazy. The latter arrived on vinyl today so I'm pretty excited to give it a listen tonight. As of yet Catch For Us The Foxes and Brothers & Sisters are far up above their other releases, but I enjoyed the hell out of all them in the last couple weeks.

NapalmBrain Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Which album would you guys recommend next? This was my first mwY album, and it's fantastic. I'd just start chronologically from "A>B Life", its pretty neat to see their progression. It's definitely got their least amount of sung vocals, so if thats bothersome you could start at CFUTF (which is the album that hooked me when it came out) grizzlyfoz and Fridge Fox 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely got their least amount of sung vocals, so if thats bothersome you could start at CFUTF (which is the album that hooked me when it came out) I think I agree with this. Their albums get slightly less aggressive chronologically with the exception of Its All Crazy being a completely dip in any aggression and then it sort of comes back with Ten Stories to a certain degree and maybe plateaus on Pale Horses but there's a bit more aggression on PH than TS. The only I album I don't really care for much is Its All Crazy!... I respect the attempt to change pace but overall it just didn't work for me. It seemed like the logical next step for them after Brother, Sister and I honestly never thought they'd make another album let alone one with any intense rock and shouting again but I was proven wrong.

Harsh vocals definitely don't bother me, I listen to hardcore and skramz and all that. I heard a bit of CFUTF before and loved it, so I'll start with that.

throughbeingcruel Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Every album rules, but AB is their worst in my opinion. There's really no way to get into this band without starting at the beginning though. Every record is a progression from the last, so even if you don't like It's All Crazy, you'll hear it in its correct context, as the follow-up to Brother, Sister.
