Sorry to hear that brother! Hopefully some of the other tracks will offer something you want to listen to.

[Jake Denning]

New tracks are different, but good.

btw, Mariners > Angels

Glad you liked them! The sun never sleeps is definitely the most different track on the record. We're really excited to get the rest of the record out so you can give it a good listen.

I don't know if I can agree with that Angels statement haha but I respect your forwardness haha

Yeah dude, are you guys hitting up Oregon before the summer? I was on tour in early 09' when you guys came around with Parkway, and whoever route's the tours seems to like to skip us EVERY tour, haha, it sucks.

[xkj1985x]

George,

Always cool to see actual band members coming and talking with the fans rather than acting like they are higher than thou, so major kudos for that. Secondly, "Where The Sun Never Sleeps" just might be my new STYG favorite. I saw you dudes for the first time ever last year on the PWD Tour in Seattle, I was blown away. Best of luck and get back to Seattle ASAP!

[fly_guy]

New songs sound like ADTR v.2

[ThisIsNotDan]

MOOOOOOOVE

[dannybr0ot4l]

Definitely digging these! This is a great band.

[dannybr0ot4l]

Thanks brother!

Any chance for a Columbia Missouri date soon?

[OdeToTheSun]

Didn't know what to think of the new songs at first, but I'm loving them the more I listen to them. Definitely can't wait to hear the whole album!

A heart is a pretty common shape, don't you think???

[Crimson_Curse]

A heart is a pretty common shape, don't you think???

It's not a tuff shape.

Regardless, I'm not saying they copied anyone they just look extremely similiar. Even the color patterns and the "brush" used to draw the hearts.

[dannybr0ot4l]

I want one dude! I'm from Missouri and we barely play there haha. Ironic right?

Yeah dude Unearth and Veil just came through and I was like wtf where are STYG and Carnifex... make it happen and I would be so stoked!

[alpartyprogram]

I see what you are saying. I don't think the cover is supposed to look tough, the cd is called The Hope Division! Also the heart has those arrows that make it look like a recycle symbol so I have a feeling its about something else besides just a heart. Just my thoughts though!

Regardless, both album covers look great and I am sure both bands chose them for their own reasons!

[xJesusFreakx]

Not a fan, but my friends used to play "This is More" all the time, so I have very fond feelings towards that song.

[Brand-new-123]

YOU ARE THE ONE WHO TOLD ME THAT GIVING UP IS NEVER AN OPTION!!!

[thestagemen]

I dig it man, but I'd rather hear some new Snake Eater tracks :p

[xabesapienx]

haha thanks Allison! Man you are too cool!!

[xabesapienx]

Yeah dude Unearth and Veil just came through and I was like wtf where are STYG and Carnifex... make it happen and I would be so stoked!

Dude it's insane that show went to Mojos! How tiny is that place! Snake Eater played there once, nobody came out, and it was still crowded. I can only imagine what it's like when Unearth and Veil of Maya haha. I'll work on it!

[xabesapienx]

I dig it man, but I'd rather hear some new Snake Eater tracks :p

haha oh would you now? Tell Dan to stop running pyramid scheme and that just might happen

I know dude I don't understand why they didn't book it at the Blue Note.. You definitely should because Columbia is very often skipped...

i just listened to these guys for the first time the other night. I was blown away. They are unreal!

[TROKyle]

My band opened for you dudes when you came to Buffalo one time.
It was awesome. Guitarist got knocked out cold during that show too.
Stoked for the new CD.

What buffalo show was it?! Glad you're stoked on the new record. Can't wait for you to hear the rest of it!

It was the Emmure tour. Our frontman did gust vocals with For Today during Joel. He still talks about it to this day...hahaha.
Such a sweet show.

that rules! That was at extreme wheels right?? That show was sick. Just a good tour all around. Hopefully we get back to buffalo soon.

[dtomczak]

i'm not a huge fan of this band, but i really do enjoy their music, especially from their last album, but not this new one so much. i mean, i've only heard those two songs that are on myspace and they've really changed their sound to an atreyu, evergreen terrace sound. not necessarily bad, but not my style. i'll still check out the rest of the album though.

[TROKyle]

Yeah dude, it was at the good 'ol xwheels. Best sound in the world there, haha.
They actually just put in a whole new system there, I haven't heard it yet but I get to this Sunday, hopefully that makes that place sound better.
Yeah I'm hopin you guys do come back here too, if you ever want to do a 1 stop show with just you guys and are having a hard time getting it booked let me know and I can set something up no prob.
And yeah that tour was nuts. Haha. So much fun.

I can guarantee that if you're a fan of this band, you will like this record. I think that song we posted on the myspace might be a little misleading to the sound of the rest record. We'll be posting a couple other tracks soon and hopefully they will be more to your liking! Glad to hear you're open to check out the rest of the album.

[shesintheband]

This record is going to be great. I think one of the coolest things to do is have days that you dedicate to a band and listen to all the albums they have in order, and listening to the way they progress, and I definitely think I have a good threepick for that coming up with The Hope Division.

But dear boys (or dear Schmitty), my friends and I are all hoping for a new installment of Real Talk with Drew. We've got plenty of topics.

Thank you so much! You always have nothing but positive things to say about us. Can't thank you enough. Can't wait for you to get a copy of the record with YOU on it haha.

As for Real Talk, I think I might have one more on the camera that I need to load up on to another video. If not, we will definitely be getting a lot of real talk in Europe haha. How out of his mind is that guy? Best guy I know

[shesintheband]

PFT. Come on dude, how can I not? Even prior to you guys asking me to do the track STYG has always been like a home band for me. You know, one of those bands you can't even count how many times you've seen but you know you've never had a bad time at any of their shows.

I'm actually so stoked dude, I've been working on a leg sleeve for the last month or so, and it's this giant tree with books hanging from it, and on the covers of all the books I'm putting dates that are significant from my life (up til now, we've got loads of extra books to add more as I, you know, live) and the day you guys got in contact with me is totally going up there.

[everytimeisteve]

Fuck yeaa! I listen to "Where the Sun Never Sleeps" every fucking day but I need some new shit already! Please release a new track before you guys head to Germany!

[mattsince88]

What did you think about Quebec City buddy? Were we the craziest crowd of the tour? Did you see the dude getting powerbombed off the stage instead of diving?

[deadkenn8]

What prompted the change of vocal style? And what happened to the other Barnett brother?

[kidcuba1990]

Love the new music! Iv heard rumors of a set of headline shows in your local, is this true and if so, will Chain Reaction be one of them, its been WAY to long since you guys have played there :)

[xabesapienx]

Quebec city was some of the most insane shit any of us have ever seen! So out of control. The craziest stage dives I have ever seen hands down. We need to come back asap

[xabesapienx]

What prompted the change of vocal style? And what happened to the other Barnett brother?

for what it's worth was just recorded when Jesse was really young. He's learned what is easier and works better for his voice now. Just a matter of maturing over the last couple years. The vocals for the rest of the new cd sound insane. I've never heard anything more pissed off in my life! So much raw emotion.

Alex left the band to work on his band with his girl friend. He's still the raddest dude I know though haha. Love that guy.

[xabesapienx]

Thanks so much for all the love. You're the best. See you next Palmdale show??

[Brandon Allin]

Loved the old stuff, but the vocals on these new tracks are on a completely different level. Some of the best songs I've ever heard.

Absolutely stoked for this record!

Hey, just listening to the new songs now and they are great, and not to mention amazing and different.

I love it when a band can continually change themselves and progress and make the music that they love. I hate it when bands never change their sound because it's "safe" Stick to Your Guns is not one of those bands at all.

I can't wait for the new record. Prolly will pre-order with a shirt. Hopefully I will get to see yall in a city near me soon.

Have any interesting experiences with STYG? Detail them here

[cysprings2010]

yeah i met Jessie in Houston & it was pretty funny, I completely ignored the guitarist by accident. I just wanted to talk to Jessie about his music that I forgot about the other band members standing around him.

[windigo11]

ive never really listened to this band before, but i was at work today (retirement home) and an old lady said stick to your guns so it reminded me of them. anyways these two new songs are badass!

[xabesapienx]

really? i kinda figured since he looks like he puts alot of work into the songs. All you guys do Im sure.

[pahoffart]

Is there going to be more dates? Houston... last time i saw you, you guys were at jazz with MCMB. jazz is gone now though. and play enough is enough.

[HaveHeart90]

Once the new cd has been out for a while it'd be rad if you guys played a tour of primarily For What It's Worth songs. But if I could pick some old songs for you guys to play it'd be A Poor Man's Poor Sport, Colorblind, Compassion Without Compromise, For The Kids By The Kids, A Badge A Brand, Industry Of Infamy, This Is Where My Heart Lies, and of course This Is More, but I heard you guys say you're gonna play that song every night so I'm not worried about that. I saw you guys for the first time with ABRB and The Ghost Inside at Fat Daddy's in Lewisville Texas, right before Comes From The Heart came out so I never really got to see a full set of just For What It's Worth songs. I'd drive 5 hours to Lubbock to see some FWIW songs for sure, or the next time you're in Dallas/Fort Worth.

[Jake Denning]

Honestly, for the headline set, i'd prefer 2 from What Its Worth, 6 From Heart, and 4 from Hope Division......and then threatening TGI to play longer than a 35 minute set this time.

We are going to try and bring back some old ones that we are getting a lot of requests for on this tour, as well as showcase the new record. It should be a really good mix of songs. You won't be disappointed!

Your wish could almost definitely be our command

Better yet, give Garrett a call and tell him to join TGI again.

One of these days right? Haha. I'm stoked to hear your new record too dude. Such an awesome year for releases

[Jake Denning]

George, are you guys taking merch with you guys that isn't on the merch connection store? Cause to be honest, i've been a fan little bit before Heart came out, but i've never really liked any of the merch thats been online. I do sorta like the Hope Division pullover hood though. I'd be stoked on some shorts to wear.

We usually end up taking some of the designs from the online store and some newer designs that aren't in the store yet. It should be a pretty good mix for the Some Kind of Hope Tour!

[Jake Denning]

So stoked to get the record tomorrow, Sumerian needs to hurry up! I guess Sumerian hasn't released the CD to anyone, yet Amber and Where The Sun Never Sleeps are charting for top STYG tracks on Last.fm

The Hope Division is kickass. You kids will not be disappointed.

[mymomsapanda]

i like the little this is more acoustic thing at the end of la poderosa. it was a nice touch

[Jake Denning]

Has anyone been to the Richland or Boise gigs?

[xabesapienx]

Hey guys,

Well today is the day that The Hope Division hit stores. To all those who have bought it, pre ordered it, downloaded it, cannot thank you enough. The entire experience with writing, recording, and touring off of The Hope Division has been nothing but awesome.

There is just a little fix that needs to be made with the track listing for those putting the record into iTunes and other players. Not to worry, the record still plays front to back the way we intended it to! When you place it in your computer though, here are some things you can shift around if you want the correct titles on every song (not too worry though, this only effects the last 3 songs on the record).

The acoustic song following the song Scarecrow was originally intended to be tacked on to the end of scarecrow, but no worries. You can leave it untitled or call it erida.

After that shift down the titles and you should be good to go! Life through western eyes is really track 9, 3/60 track 10 and so on so forth.

As for Sufferer/Ponderosa, 2 songs in 1 track. You can feel the song break in the middle when it is just the guitar ringing out on one chord.

The Hope Division still plays start to finish how we intended it to though, no worries there, but if you want to have the correct track listing in itunes, this is your guide to helping you out.

You guys are the best fans ever, couldn't ask for better. Thank you so much for being so patient with us, you've been nothing but gracious.

Is The Vocalist Going To Do Guest Vocals On Any Upcoming New Albums?

[xZevallosx]

Any Guest Vocals? Anyone You Guys Wished Was Guest Voxs On The Album?

[xabesapienx]

Is The Vocalist Going To Do Guest Vocals On Any Upcoming New Albums?

Jesse has a spot on Legend's new record!

[xabesapienx]

Any Guest Vocals? Anyone You Guys Wished Was Guest Voxs On The Album?

Daniel from the band Bitter End has a guest vocal spot on the song No Cover. We tried to get Winston from Parkway Drive on faith in the untamed but he wasn't going to be able to make to the studio in time to land a guest vocal spot. We will try for next time though! It would be so sick to get him on our next record

[xabesapienx]

To all our fans who were there for e live chat, we have been in total crisis control mode and we totally spaced out the chat. So so so sorry guys. We had to abandon our van in Colordo Springs and over the last two days we have had to try and magically procure a new van to finish out the rest of this tour. No excuse to miss this chat with you guys though. We are looking to reschedule. So sorry that we dropped e ball on this

[xabesapienx]

Hey guys, our rescheduled chat will be going down tomorrow (the 24th) at 8 pm EST time. We won't miss this one haha promise

[rainfall]

Who is coming out to Thrash and Burn!

[Anesthetic]

I really hate The Hope Division. I can't get into it for some reason, just a little odd. But anything from their previous releases is pretty good in my book. Plus who doesn't love "This Is More"

[$eth]

Just picked up The Hope Division. Can't listen to the whole thing because I can't stop listening to "Where The Sun Never Sleeps."

[AngelClive]

This album is amazing! Loving Amber <3

As you have probably seen, we have our upcoming "Faith In The Untamed" headliner with As Blood Runs Black, For The Fallen Dreams, Atilla, and Close Your Eyes in October. In thinking about our setlist for this tour, we realized that it had been a while since we had played some of our older songs. In trying to narrow it down between what we thought we should do and requests we've heard from fans, we just couldn't come to a decision. But in our time of trouble, we turn to Democracy to solve our problems. So, here in this blog, we are conducting a poll. We are asking fans to post the four songs they want to hear most from For What It's Worth and Comes From The Heart. These 8 songs, coupled with the songs from. the Hope Division, will be a part of our set for the Faith In the Untamed Tour!!!

So! Here's the deal. To cast your vote, leave a comment in the following format

For What It's Worth

1. Request
2. Request
3. Request
4. Request

Comes From The Heart

1. Request
2. Request
3. Request
4. Request

Your requests will be tallied and the songs that receive the most votes will make it in our set! Cast your vote! We will Close this poll towards the end of the Month.

Alright George, let's get this chat poppin'.


1) Favorite video game to play for hours on end.
2) Favorite James Bond actor.
3) Favorite viral video (i.e. "What What, In The Butt", "Eh Marina" etc etc)

Ready, go.
Your fans must know.

[xabesapienx]

1. Favorite video game- Pokemon Yellow. End all be all
2. Favorite James Bond Actor-Tie between Sean Connery and Daniel Craig. Connery is the classic, but Craig is just such a badass
3. I don't even know how or what I would answer this question with haha

[shesintheband]

I agree with you on Pokemon Yellow, seconded only by Zelda: Ocarina of time.

Sean Connery is the man, 'nuff said.

And that just means you should be watching this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QqUFopqVnU

[RyanRagnarok]

Pokemon Heartgold and SoulSilver are pretty good considering they're new ones.
The Rock was a great movie, with the greatest like ever in any movie.
"Losers always whine about their best. Winners go home and fuck the prom queen."

Also, saw you guys with Unearth down in Augusta, Ga and talked to Jesse. Most down to earth dude ever when I talked to him. He gave me a bottle of water. I paid the last chunk of my money just to see you dudes haha.

[Ryannn29]

The Rock was a great movie, with the greatest like ever in any movie.
"Losers always whine about their best. Winners go home and fuck the prom queen."
.
Haha, I love that quote. I remember it also from I Killed The Prom Queen's song called 'Never Never Land'.

As far as the q&a goes:
1. Streets of Rage 1 or 2 on Sega Genesis (but way back in the day, I'd prolly say Goldeneye)
2. Same reason as Schmitty, Sean for the classics, Daniel because he's badass for sure.
3. kinda too specific of a question, but I'm just going to throw this one out there: Throwdown's remake of Baby Got Back
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_hveXzklMA
love that remake :D

Top 5 favorite bands to tour with

Evergreen Terrace- Most down to Earth guys I've ever met. Best guys to hang out with

Stray From The Path- Not only do I love every one of these dudes, but I love watching their band every night. Why they aren't the biggest band in the world is beyond me.

Terror- Enough Said

Trapped Under Ice - Never a dull moment.

Last one is a tie between The Ghost Inside/Your Demise/Winds of Plague

I can't give just five haha

[RyanRagnarok]

Stray From The Path- Not only do I love every one of these dudes, but I love watching their band every night. Why they aren't the biggest band in the world is beyond me.

I wish I could've seen you guys on tour with Stray from the Path. I love the support you guys show for each other and I saw the joke one of you posted on their Formspring. Made my week. Haha.
I agree fully with the statement that they should be the biggest band in the world. They're all really nice guys and their music is insanely good.

Holy shit forgot about this thread, haha. Can't wait to get my preorder of Diamond.

[thandall92]

While I don't listen to that much hardcore, Diamond is something else. I saw STYG in Ottawa a couple months ago with Our Last Night, Make Me Famous, Memphis May Fire, and I See Stars (random ass lineup, I know) and STYG stole the show. They really stole it.

If you like The Hope Division, you'll like Diamond. A lot.
