FlippingOut 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. Don't understand all the flack A-B Life gets for as amazing as it is Fridge Fox and grizzlyfoz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bladewillisisdead Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Bullet to Binary is so fucking good. Can't believe I've seen them 5 times in the last 10 years and never seen them play it. It's one of the songs that helped me get into "heavier" music as a teenager. That, Ebolorama by Every Time I Die, Black Cloud by Converge, and Mordecai by Between the Buried and Me all blew my mind around the same time. Mwy is definitely the outlier on that list. shawnayala90 and FlippingOut 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't believe I've seen them 5 times in the last 10 years and never seen them play it. god that would be a treat to see that song especially in the context of the band now. theres some pretty choice youtube videos of them playing it at early 2000s Cornerstone festivals that i usually refer t. when i saw them in 2012 they played silencer and i think another from a to b and it was a very transcendent moment.

Bladewillisisdead Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 :/ I've seen them play it twice now. I saw them in 2004, 2005, and 2006 and they never played it I was watching their set lists from the tour I saw them on last year. They were playing one AB song a night and a few dates got Bullet. I was happy with Nice and Blue but was REALLY hoping for Bullet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donlombardo Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 They've made some of the best music videos ever. The one for N&B pt 2 is prob my all time fav: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donlombardo Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Audiotree Live session http://audiotree.tv/session/mewithoutyou/ Great session, the drums sound better than on the album. Aaron played a b-side at the end, very NMH-ish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eliminator Jr. Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 This record keeps on growing on me a lot. It works best for me while sitting in the park or taking long walks, so really don't know if I'm gonna spin the LP all that much (in case it actually arrives someday).

Eliminator Jr. Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 I'm currently getting into It's All False! and I enjoy it quite a lot. It has this cool Knife Man-era Andrew Jackson Jihad vibe (minus the fun) that suits them really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David The Gnome Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 I caved and listened to the album yesterday. I've pretty much had it on repeat since. Mexican War Streets is probably my favorite track. Really dig the lyrics, especially the second verse. It was really surprising and pretty awesome when I listened and realized that the song is set in Pittsburgh. zerohacker and Velocity of Sound 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJJazzyJoel Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 They came through Dallas when I was in high school with Norma Jean and I got to hear Aaron actually do Memphis Will Be Laid to Waste. One of my favorite concert moments ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SweetJerryWine Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 They came through Dallas when I was in high school with Norma Jean and I got to hear Aaron actually do Memphis Will Be Laid to Waste. One of my favorite concert moments ever. This just reminded me of an old concert video from years ago of this. It took forever to find it but here it is. Everyone does their parts, then Aaron comes out for his and he just.. stands there. Doesn't sing, doesn't move. Just smiles. I always thought it was hilarious and uncomfortable and even now finding it I still love it. Enjoy. Watch the whole thing if you want, or skip to 3:30.

While we are sharing...this is still my favorite performance of his captured on video. Shit gets cray at 4:44.
