BABsxo. Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 yeah its pretty mental how big theyve gotten - not that ive known of them from the very start or anything. i think i started listening to them around november '06, after coming across their name all the time for a good few months. common dreads has charted at #16. nothing on TTTS's #4, but still hella good.

Sophie_*! Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Yeah cos singing about politics makes them soooooo cultured ES should stick to singing about glowsticks. They won't do anything politically inclined but bitch, and tbh they don't seem like the sharpest tools in the box. At least bands like The King Blues have some kind of physical action to go wit their message. ES are just jumping on the "socially conscious" band wagon in an attempt to be taken seriously. ?????? They've been pretty political since the beginning actually. The first album is full of hidden meanings, Rou and his girlfriend are setting up a fairtrade company and they have been doing protests and marches ever since I've known them. They never once sang about glowsticks and they're pretty clued up on what they should know. They're good friends with the King Blues because they are both trying to get basically the same message across. You maybe need to get your facts right before you go trying to blast them. And fuck aye, got my August tickets ordered, gonna get the ones for October then I'm done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Posted June 28, 2009 Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 Shame being friends with the King Blues doesn't mean anything. They don't play their ukulele live, they just pretend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 I would just like to say I saw the video for their new single and it is shockingly bad imo. That lyric is so annoying "YOU'RE NOT.... GETTING ANY... SLEEP TONIGHT" that's like me shouting "I AM.... WASHING MY... HAIR TONIGHT". Honestly I used to like them, this new album doesn't sound good at all though (and I've only heard the singles so far). And that new one, whatever it's called is reallyyyy bad.

BABsxo. Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 ^not bad. I would just like to say I saw the video for their new single and it is shockingly bad imo.

Honestly I used to like them, this new album doesn't sound good at all though (and I've only heard the singles so far). And that new one, whatever it's called is reallyyyy bad. i really dont like no sleep tonight either. its my least favourite track on that album by a miiiiile. in fact its probably the only one i dont like. i can see why its a single though - it sums up what the album is all about fairly well. i would give the full album a listen though, man. it pisses all over take to the skies.

travel_hymn Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 The Devil Wears Prada supporting on the UK October dates, or so I've heard. Yes it's true, it was confirmed on their site by their manager. And LOOOL I love No Sleep Tonight, I pretty much love the album. I do have to conclude I like TTTS more though (I have the CD hehe!). Although, Babs seems to think Common Dreads pisses all over it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, Babs seems to think Common Dreads pisses all over it... it does! the band probably think it does too. in rocksound rou said CD is more like their first album, cause TTS was just a fortnight of mixing. you cant knock TTS as an amazing live album, but i was listening to it the other day and it just doesnt seem anywhere near as good anymore.

Ross Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 Neither album grabbed me more than the other. TTTS edges it for me cause of the connection I have with the demos, but that's about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophie_*! Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Common Dreads is about a thousand times better than Take To The Skies. And yeah, TDWP are gonna be supporting. Ian says there's still another support to be announced. No clue who it could be, but I hope it's PDex again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was one thing that annoyed me a bit with TTTS, that pretty much all the songs on it, I had already as demo's or on EP's. I might download the new album later and give it a try.

Sophie_*! Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 Flood of Red are apparently supporting on a few dates. That's quite probable, seeing as they're good friends. And Qemists are another one people have been speculating. Hmm, shouldn't be too long till old Steel Wool announces them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travel_hymn Posted July 11, 2009 Report Share Posted July 11, 2009 Planning to see them on the 26th of this month. I have to. (w/ blessthefall, IWRESTLEDABEARONCE and August Burns Red.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
