[monstersonmaple]

and ill be seeing them tonight at taste of chaos tearing shit up.

[A picasso blue]

um i like these guys, have their CD and have seen them live but still, they seem to be more overrated here than anyone else

[GlassyLight]

I've got to concur with A Picasso Blue. These guys are ok, but their live show and CD is not all that impressive.

Dredg, on the other hand...

First off -- locale should have absolutely no bearing on the live show. A Wilhelm Scream/Catch 22's tour came here last year, playing in front of about 75-100 people (most of which were townies hitting the bar after work/being homeless all day), and all 3 bands (whole wheat bread was the other) played their hearts out like their lives depended on it. If TREOS can only put on a good show in New England, they don't deserve to play elsewheres.

Second, I have listened to TREOS quite a bit, mostly to find out what the hype was. To me, they simply can't sustain the songs for five minutes each time. I have nothing against long songs, but you have to be able to keep it interesting. In my opinion, they simply can't maintain the length and have a lot of extraneous parts.

Like I said, they're ok, but they'll probably be another quick casualty in the ever-present turnover in popular music.

[Take Heart]

I don't care what anybody says, this band is the most UNDERrated band around. It's great that they're finally garnering some attention from media. Of all the new releases i'm looking forward to this year, nothing even comes close to the single new TREOS song that will be on the Superman Returns soundtrack.

The problem with most music listeners now: THEY HAVE A.D.D. and can't bare more then 30 seconds without vocal melody (not saying that's the case with you, but just saying in general). To me, 4 minutes of total instrumentals kicks ass and hits me harder then 4 minutes of constant vocal melody does. I don't need Intro, Verse, Chorus, Verse, Chorus, Breakdown, Chorus, to stay interested in a song, I just need emotion and feeling.

...People need catchy vocal melody constantly, it's the sole reason why the general public will never except Anathallo. It frustrates me a lot.

Also, about your live show comments, bands usually feed off of crowd energy and vica versa. I can get into a show A LOT more when 600 kids around me are going crazy.

I like this guy. They are totally under rated. They deserve to be one of the top spots on Billboard, not Hawthorne.

These guys wrote a fucking symphony

[j.maziarski]

They are pretty amazing live. I filmed them for PRV a few months back and they were unbelievable actually....One of the best shows ive been to in a while.

And they deserve this. They are hard working, amazing people, and fabulous musicians. I love how everyone's talking about them being overrated. It doesn't matter what your complaint about them is, if you can't see how talented they are as a band or as individuals, you haven't paid much attention to them or listen to them enough (agreeing with frank).

suckas.

Absolutely. I've seen them 4 or 5 times live, and they have blown away every other band on the bill every time. I just cannot understand how someone can actually walk away from their live show disappointed. My only complaint is that their sets are usually too short, but that's not their fault. I can't even begin to imagine how incredible this headlining tour is going to be.

As far as the ADD thing goes, I completely agree. The spacey parts of Frances the Mute and Deloused in the Comatorium, as well as Atom Heart Mother by Pink Floyd rank right up with my favorite songs of all time. The whole immediate vocal melody thing is also my main problem with 'scene' music anymore. For example, I cannot stand The Academy Is, or Panic! at the Disco. They seem too worried about having people sing along at shows than having a good riff or lyrical depth.

Another problem is the whole thing about having a 'dreamboat' in the band. Granted, people can't help how they look, but it seems like people market the look over the music (All the fucking bands with hair swept over one eye). The best rockers are always the ugly motherfuckers -- Billy Corgan is a hideous man, yet he rocks. Coheed and Cambria come on stage looking like a bunch of homeless guys, and they kicked ass live every time i've seen them. But this is all just a tangent that's on my mind.

As far as the live shows, I feel that if a band can stir up a shitstorm here is BumbleFuck Iowa, it says a lot more about their live show than stirring up a frenzy in your New Yorks, Bostons, LAs. In your big cities "key tour areas", there's bound to be a larger population, which usually correlates to a higher fan population density. For example, I'd imagine that there's a lot more TREOS fans in New York/Jersey/What have you than there is here in the middle of nowhere.

That said, the symbiotic relationship between concert-goer/band energy is absolutely true. But if the crowd is filled with kids raring to go apeshit for a band, of course you'll be drawn in quickly and have a better time. My point is that when a band comes out and FORCES everyone there who couldn't care less about their show to get up and rock out, I tend to hold that as a better show than when you have 700 fans ready to go.

[lazysunday]

Such a good band.

[-Aaron-]

TREOS will be huge.

[JoshIsArealBoy]

TREOS is for lovers

[badstarsfall]

ben potrykus, look at what you threw away.

[RockVocalPower]

Well honestly...the band wouldn't be where they are today with Ben. I think that since adding Casey the band has improved tenfold and things will only be getting better for them.

[ilovebsb]

wow dude... i feel bad for ben haha. he really must be biting himself in the @ss being like "whoa man... i could be doing national headlining tours, but i'm stuck here working a reg. 9-5... dam what the hell was i thinking". its weird though he did the samething when he was the drive(fake i.d.). oh well i dont think treos would be as good with ben still in the band but hey thats old gossip. back to the future. i really cant wait to see them on their headlining tour this guna be like the 7th time i've seen them. they really never get old watching them play. :)

[Becca]

I think a good portion of the reason ben left in the first place is because labels were showing interest. He likes making music as a hobby, not as a career. thats what I've heard, anyway,

[a hybrid]

ive seen treos in a slew of different venues, some packed, some not so packed. yet they have always delivered on their live show.

they are great guys and derseve all the publicity and 'hype' that they get.

[spaceandtime]

yup, amazing band

[weworemasks]

Dredg, on the other hand...

in my opinion dredg isnt half the band TREOS is, and that is saying alot, considering i love dredg.
TREOS have the most incredible live show ive seen repeatedly in the past 3 years. they are intense and HUGE. the sounds and vibes that come from the stage are incredible. they have never had an off night, and i have seen em 4 times, including warped tour, where only 25 people showed up, because underoath was playing.

i think the more you listen to the cd, the more things catch on, the more you notice. i always notice something different when i listen to the cd again. i dont know, give it another shot.

and on top of all that, they are insanely nice. if you caught them before the show, and requested songs you wanted them to play, they will do it.

Way to back up your opinion. Dead serious here, most of the times I just get the 'you are ghey' response. I definitely plan to give it a few more spins.

[QTheDangerMusic]

They've Only Sold 16,000 Records!!! Please Start Buying Before They Disband And I Kill Myself

[iamtheemo1]

This cd took me a while to completly get into, but now made its way up to my top 3 releases of last year

PRETTY MUCH!!!!

you're so right. I saw treos ACTUALLY on Halloween...and they were all pretty ill...pretty much all of them couldn't talk, and they still were the most amazing band ever. They ARE my favorite band, because of how GENIUS they are with their music.

Let's break this down shall we?
Drums: Andrew has some of the drum beats that, he SOMEHOW gets out of his body is absolutely amazing. I've even had discussions with some of the members of the band saying that sometimes they get wrapped up in watching him. He's a sick drummer. you wish you could be so cool

Guitar: Now, usually I'm very skeptical when I see a band with three guitarists...I just don't see how that can be necessary. But, you know what...TREOS DOES. They have great riffs that catch your ear inbetween choruses and verses. And sometimes you'll find yourself singing along to guitar parts because they are catchy in themselves!! Nate....what the hell....how does he play those guitar parts, and make his legs move like that? SERIOUSLY?!

Vocals/Lyrics: Casey, Brendan and Alex...this band was blessed with THREE AMAZING VOCALISTS. Their voices blend so well together. They own my soul. I've listened to TREOS probably close to everyday of my life since I got the cd almost a year ago...and it is for CERTAIN that I still don't know all the words to this cd. Trust me there are very few that I don't know...but THERE ARE SOME. Some of the most moving and intense lyrics I've ever heard in my life. Beautiful harmonies and overlapping of choruses/verses. Just absolutely breath-taking. they own me.

Bass: SWEET BASS LINES! I've recently (within the last year) become obsessed with bass parts, just because I feel like they are the most over-looked part of music...and so to further my musical knowledge, I've paid more attention....and I think Brendan has some great bass lines. So great.

And stage performances....um....eff you if you aren't impressed by their performance. I don't want to know you if you weren't impressed. They are amazing. and you need watch this band.
