Casey is easily one of the nicest/coolest dudes I've ever played with.

he is a super talented musician. I wish triple crown would have forked out more money for a better recording.

This band is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay overhyped. The whole thing borders on a teensy bit pretentious.

I'm really liking this sound. It hints of the newer Rx Bandits album. I like hearing Casey's voice taking a new direction.
As far as being pretentious? The guy's one of the nicest down-to-earth people on the planet with talent to boot.

sounds a lot like actionreaction to me. they're both trying to do something out there with the rock and both succeed very well.
Love the new song, but it feels very TREOS to me.

It won't feel like TREOS once they release more material, but I see what you mean. The into reminds me of The Mars Volta alot too, but the finished product is undeniably Casey

I can't say I really agree with you, but I think hearing the EP, and especially the full length when it comes out next year, will change your mind. It's pretty different.

what did atreyu say about the dear hunter?

08/18/06, 03:48 PM
also, whoever said something about panic is an idiot, this band was making music when the self proclaimed "hot" boys of panic were zygotes. on top of that, casey has more talent in one fucking hair follicle than all the panic musicians combined.
no...lifetime-hello bastards right now
i wasnt asking what you are listening to now, more so, you couldnt possibly have been listening to TDH because any comparison to Panic is just unfounded.

Casey seems like a cool enough guy, sure, and no doubt he has talent, but I just find it a bit over the top that:
a. the first song released was friggen acapella
b. he's headlining shows already (over a decently popular band as well)
c. (not casey's fault but) people calling it amazing before they heard a note of music...I guess the acoustic demos count, but still
d. the ad asking for basically a miniature orchestra
I went into the show with an open mind, but I just wasn't into the Dear Hunter's sound. I'll give the ep a listen when it comes out, but as for now I'm just not feeling the hype.

I'll just take a quick stab at responding here.
a.) if you've been following the band there have been many other songs posted on myspace that weren't acapella. You think it's going to be all acapella? I don't know why you think an acapella song being released first is "over the top".
b.) the dear hunter should be headlinging in my opinion
c.) there have been about 15-20 tdh songs that i've personally heard and i'm sure many others have as well, none of which are acoustic demos
d.) i agree that's over the top in a sense of the word but it's better than being generic. It pushes the realm of believability but any doubters will be converted if this was there only doubt once they see it's the real deal. It's not for glamour either. If you've heard any of the aforementioned songs Casey wrote you will know that the songs include parts that would require a mini orchestra to perform live.

there is nothing pretentious about this ep or this band. it is what it is and there is no reason that this ep will not be highly regarded.
oh and booking agents not bands decide who headlines. its not like it was done maliciously like you convey.
