PO: Emmure - Eternal Enemies 4/15/14


Recommended Posts

A couple colors available (clear green, clear with black smoke, black), along with a few pre-order packages on Victory Records. 

 

Emmure seems to be a band that you either love, or hate.  I have about a 50/50 feeling on each side of the coin.  I thought Goodbye To The Gallows & The Respect Issue were both good albums, but they completely lost me on Felony.  Seemed to go way too hip-hop influenced on that record for my liking.  But when they came back with Speaker Of The Dead I was back on the bandwagon, that album is bad-fuckin-ass.  And I think Slave To The Game followed suit. 

 

They don't seem very popular in the vinyl world, but I figure it's worth a post anyways to somebody who might be interested. 

 

Also worth noting that the vinyl prices are fair at about $14 each, but the shipping ain't nothin' nice: $7 unless you're ordering a bunch of stuff they'll give you a price break.

They used to be a guilty pleasure of mine.  Over the top, over produced, bass-heavy, aggro deathcore.  If you're into that style of music/vocals (as I am) it was a fun band to crank up on your car stereo with your windows down.

 

I never thought the music/band had any substance or value, and I always thought Frankie was a moron, but whatever, there's no crime in being an idiot.

 

However, the whole 'Bring a Gun to School' thing?  Actually being pro-senseless violence is not morally defensible (in my personal moral system) and so I cannot support the band in any way.  I no longer, and will not in the future, possess anything associated with Frankie.

This is exactly how I feel about them. The band is nowhere near talented and Frankie is an absolute asshole. Their first album is decent though...at best...but their music went downhill quickly after that

This. I liked them quite some years ago and beside that my musical taste grew beyond this kind of music in general, I can't stand such statements and I would totally distance myself from this band even if I would still be into that kind of music
