rtw88 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I usually hate these appreesh threads, but if you've never listened to this band, do yourself a favor and do it. I've been listening to all their albums today, and they didn't write a bad song until Mercy. This band is, IMO, the most underrated band in hardcore/post hardcore or whatever you want to call it.

thedavidescapeplan Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I love this band. All their releases are solid and really were underappreciated in almost every way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadmonkey Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Love the albums. Didn't really like their live shows so much. Maybe I just had bad luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thedavidescapeplan Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I never had the chance to see them live and that makes me sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I just had bad luck I saw them live, and I wasn't super impressed. Granted there were only about 10 people there. I'm hoping they'll end up reuniting for the Fest sometime soon.

xlovecolouredx Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 i ever saw 'em on 2005 when matt was in the band. one word can define them 'a-m-a-z-i-n-g' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxmartinxx Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 I saw them three or four times, even played a show with them once. They were somewhat lacking live. I'm not sure why. "Fuck With Fire" is one of the best albums of the past decade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oakland Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 There was nothing about PMFS that wasn't awesome. Anybody that saw them live and wasn't floored is either retarded or saw them on a bad night. I'd have to say they are my all-time favorite local band and an awesome interview. I'm a professional, so my opinion is more important than most people's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It hasn't even been a year since their final show. But yeah. Good band. It was a fucking ordeal getting out to Denver for the last show, and I probably wouldn't go through that for just any band.

stefan Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 If you didn't get into the live shows, you had bad luck. Anyone who saw this band play (clotherd or otherwise) in a sweaty Denver garage/basement/living room can attest to the intenseness. The only time I ever saw them outside of Denver or a festival was partially depressing: in Port Jervis, NJ to a dozen people -- two of us who loved it -- with the band still giving it their all. The problem with Planes was always that they needed to 'make it' to support themselves. You read between the lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
