[Mathus]

i think i liked the live version better, but nonetheless it's still an awesome song

[kshtoinks12]

holy shit, this song is amazing, and the cover for this album is unbelievable

[StopPayin4Music]

Too bad they have to keep using science fiction references because of their lack of originality

[aolsux]

awesomeness, classic gatsby

[Steve Henderson]

Wow, this is a nice surprise. I like it better than anything on Volcano, to be honest.

[a hybrid]

album of the year contender.

[Jason Tate]

album of the year contender.

Eh. In every thread.

[Steve Henderson]

album of the year contender.Last I checked, technically every album released in a given year is "album of the year contender."

[Garett Press]

Eh. In every thread.
the monster attacking the city on the album cover is supposed to symbolize Jason, in this thread :wave:

[jaimej]

Eh. In every thread.
As always, except in this case it's probably true.

[Romancebled]

wow, this is amazing. i can't wait until this album comes out.

[Mitch]

The only songs I really love by them are A Mind Of Matter Or Wheels (Or whatever it's called...) and Fable.

I just can't get into them.

[boldt_action]

I really love this song.

And the album cover has been my wallpaper on my desktop since it was released.

[Jason Tate]

As always, except in this case it's probably true.
No.

[Mitch]

No.


What are your top 5 favorite albums of the year so far including ones that haven't been released yet but you have heard?

[fryhole]

so good, someone gotta rip that :p

[LilRyan732]

I love this new direction they're taking with the songs..they're more fun to listen to, easy to move to as well. The album cover looks very Coheed-esque though.

[Scott Weber]

No.
:explode:

[a hybrid]

well after hearing the album pre mastered i think its definitely album or the year status. so whatever mr. rain on my parade.

Really? STD?

Interesting.

[Scott Weber]

Really? STD?

Interesting.
STD is my #1 of the year so far.

[boldt_action]

STD is my #1 of the year so far.
Even over GAD? Crazy.

I really wasn't impressed with Sound The Alarm, I enjoyed it, but haven't listened to it since the week it came out.

[Tony]

I really wasn't impressed with Sound The Alarm, I enjoyed it, but haven't listened to it since the week it came out.
Same here. I've put it on a couple different times since then and I never make it past the halfway mark before I get tired of it and want to listen to something else.

[jusscali]

idk i loved volcano and im not loving this song. the backup vocal kinda bugs me, and now that i listened to the whole thing a few times i guess i understand why they only made short songs, cause for some reason it seemed to grow tired on me all the way through.

idk i didnt like the other song that got out much either, so im worried. although it did take a long time for volcano to grow on me. we will see.

now give me my as tall as lions exclusive

[a hybrid]

the background vocals...bugging you?

the song tiresome and too long?

is this like jason tates second account or are just hard of hearing.

no its not tate, and in fact me and tate usually tend to disagree with music. yes i think the backup vocals sound like shit, bad quality and they hurt nicks lead. i think the songs are much better quick and fun, i just kinda wanted it to end. it may grow on me though.

[Zinja]

i wasn't sure how much i would like this song based off of the youtube videos. but....

it's f*cking awesome.

[NFG4ever]

I don't like it , can't get into these guys

[johnnybb]

My...god. That was amazing.

[Scott Weber]

Even over GAD? Crazy.

I really wasn't impressed with Sound The Alarm, I enjoyed it, but haven't listened to it since the week it came out.
I'm not counting GAD because it hasn't been released yet and I don't have it yet....I've heard it but I'd be foolish to call something album of the year after only hearing it a few times. It takes months to determine an album of that kind of power. To date, STD has released the best record of 06 for me.

:O

[jusscali]

:O
hahahah speechless

[*crying stars*]

enjoyable.

[FOBPrettyNPunk]

I like what I hear.

[KH_The_49th]

I'm impressed

[Cheddar]

yeah guys, no way is this cd of the year. no way is it even close to the spill canvas or thrice, who obviously deserve 10/10 for their efforts last year.

[kevanu]

Lolz another song about science fiction!! Do you guys have any originality? 0/10

[Cheddar]

What the hell? What is sci fi about the lyrics?

Are bees from another planet?

<Cue the All Time Low joke>

[Take Heart]

Absolutely incredible. and I have to say STD is my #1 most overrated album of the year. Judging by the 2 songs i've heard, this album has a great chance to blow Volcano out of the water.

[Garett Press]

Not that you need any more evidence for the overlapping of my tastes with Scott's, but Saves the Day is my number one or two right now. That album fucks me up.

[siimpx]

mmm it's okay. i was expecting something fucking amazing.

[Scott Weber]

Haha yeah, and consider this: Bobby and Nic from Gatsbys LOVE Sound the Alarm too..

[Scott Weber]

:O
I don't want to commit to album of the year and then be stuck at the end! I have to see how long it lasts for me, etc etc.

[Scott Weber]

Record of the year? Wow. You and I have quite the polarized tastes.

<Cue the All Time Low joke>
Haha you already made the joke for me. I love STD's lyrics more than anything else I've heard this year.

[llmp]

Good stuff...I find that I either really love a Gatsby's song or cannot stand to listen to it.

Absolutely incredible. and I have to say STD is my #1 most overrated album of the year. Judging by the 2 songs i've heard, this album has a great chance to blow Volcano out of the water.

Agreed. I keep giving STD more chances because everyone seems to love them but have yet to find a song by them I actually like...just can't stand the vocals, on any album.

[poppa Q]

I prefer their stuff in context of the entire album, not just each individual song (with exceptions, of course).

[Steve Henderson]

Haha you already made the joke for me. I love STD's lyrics more than anything else I've heard this year.Yeah, lyrically, they are awesome. The songs just sound a little too much like demos to me. I wish the hooks were more fleshed out - "Sound the Alarm" and "The End" sound to me what I would have liked the rest of the album to sound like.

I do love me some Rocky V, so we agree on that one :)

Yeah. I wish it was more polished in places but I do like how raw it sounds, especially because of the harsh contrast to In Reverie, which I didn't like.

[Chris Fallon]

Dude, give me a boner with this post, why don't you? My parents are gonna be like, "WTF?" and I'll be all, "Sorry mom. Sorry dad. New Gatsbys song on AbsolutExclusive." I think they'll understand, but still.

[Garett Press]

Haha yeah, and consider this: Bobby and Nic from Gatsbys LOVE Sound the Alarm too..
hahah, well then my choice is clear

HAHAHA, golden dude. That's funny

[Ruggiero2oo8]

wonderful.

[kissbangkill]

i wonder if it's at all awkward for gatsbys, knowing they've had sex with a mans ear canal. and that canal belongs to me.

what?

[Fat Kid Running]

weird haha

[kittypants]

good song

Hahaha!

That almost made me spit out my drink!

[1check_1love]

oh man. Can you say EAR-GASM?
ear-gasm


ahhh so good!

[booyah.achieved]

Such a let down compared to Volcano. Such a let down. Doesn't even touch TLOLM EP, and don't even start to talk about Ribbons.

If things stay this course,

TLOLM > Ribbons > Volcano > Why We Fight > S/T

........ lame. it's 1 song. besides, ribbons > volcano > why we fight > TLOLM EP anyways. ;)

[Chris Fallon]

Gatsbys American Dream is like a fine wine...

You know the rest.

[carramrod2005]

i can't stop listening to it!

[weworemasks]

Too bad they have to keep using science fiction references because of their lack of originality

shut the fuck up.

i wonder if it's at all awkward for gatsbys, knowing they've had sex with a mans ear canal. and that canal belongs to me.

what?

winner.

........ lame. it's 1 song. besides, ribbons > volcano > why we fight > TLOLM EP anyways. ;)

since we are spot on our opinions for a change, where do you think s/t will land?

[Scott Weber]

who knows, man.

[Garett Press]

i'm thinking under ribbons, but above volcano... it's going to be interesting to see how it plays out

[weworemasks]

i'm thinking under ribbons, but above volcano... it's going to be interesting to see how it plays out

i hope so, that means this is going to be fucking sweet.

[Lephty]

That album cover is straight out of either the movie War of the Worlds, or Half-Life 2. But that song is really good. I heard the new Gatsbys in a dream a while ago, and that is pretty close to what it sounded like. Can't wait until it comes out, man.

[muzik4lyf5000]

I'm liking the evolution they're taking.
