The Chariot (Offical Thread)

[Regards]

I've decided for my 5,000th post I'm going to make an offical thread that should've already been made.

I'm listening to Everything Is Alive, Everything Is Breathing, Nothing Is Dead, And Nothing Is Bleeding right now and I love it.


Thoughts?

[hailthewarrior]

My favorite "metalcore" band, such an intense live show.

I love the production on their first album, and his vocals on the second.

And be prepared for a ton of fat and Christian jokes.

[alice+interiors]

agree with much that has been said before, namely;

the vocals have progressed in the second record, which is much better than the first.
the song titles are generic and the band as a whole try too hard to fit into the scene.
perhaps it's not my thing, but i think they're a bit overrated.

that being said, congrats on 5k Kris!
:-)

They are just under mewithoutYou on my list of most wanted to see live bands haha. I think they are a stand out band in such a crappy genre.
Such lame song titles. Generic. Way too scene.

The production on the first album was cool. That's all the nice things I can think of.
Atleast you had one nice thing to say.

[White Noise]

It's just meh for me, nothing that I could get into.

[hockeyguitar99]

not really my thing, but their talent is something that should be recognized.

congrats on 5 k

YOU'RE OVERRATED! Haha. I totally agree with the vocals progressing with each album, although I still think he was great in their earlier efforts.

Thanks pal.

[summer skin]

I think converge is shit but the chariot is talented because I'm an asshole.

[funkel]

Whenever I see their name I hear the Gavin Degraw song in my head and I get annoyed...

[Regards]

Seeing some of their live shows via youtube I'm lead to believe that the talent lies in the live show.

[hailthewarrior]

The Chariot is much better live than mewithoutYou, but that may change when I finally see mwY headline on Wednesday.

[summer skin]

The Chariot is much better live than mewithoutYou, but that may change when I finally see mwY headline on Wednesday.
NO.
just no.

[hailthewarrior]

NO.
just no.

mewithoutYou is ten times a better band, but i had tons more fun during the chariot. but i also saw mewithoutYou at a brand new crowd, which is why i may change that when i see them headline in two days.

[Regards]

I find this incredibly hard to belive, but if its true, then that just ups how much I want to see them.

'Nuff said.

do you love watching fat guys crouch over bass drums?

[hailthewarrior]

the energy is awesome. the lead guitarist is fun to watch.

yeah, i didnt listen to non-radio music back then, so i didnt even know this existed. but their live show right now, while energetic and passionate, just not much fun.

scogin looks like ben...

[Regards]

Ben Scogin? Maybe...

[summer skin]

how dare you.
prove me wrong.

[x togepi x]

this band fucking sucks. they used to have a good live show though, but now they fucking suck.

though even when they had a good live show, they still wrote bad music.

[Regards]

Oh, okay.

[hockeyguitar99]

I think converge is shit but the chariot is talented because I'm an asshole.

I said that converge were talented as well, I just don't like the music they make, same thing with the chariot as converge.

[summer skin]

I said that converge were talented as well, I just don't like the music they make, same thing with the chariot as converge.
to even mention them in the same sentence is blasphemy.

[handlikesecret]

congrats on getting 5k.
excellent thread.
amazing band.

[Gumbyjag]

one of my favorite metalcore bands. i think the reason people think they're scente is because they tour with a lot of those fashion-core bands. their first album wasn't that great imo but i really enjoyed the Unsung EP and The Fiancee has some cool songs on it. i enjoy them. :shrug:

[Batman138]

I just recently started listening to this band, and I really like them, it is kinda generic but no more then every other metalcore/southern rock band around now. I have known about this band for a while (cause they are from georgia and I live in georgia) but I never cared enough to listen to them until a few weeks ago and I regret never seeing them live when I had the chance. My favorite song so far from them is "forgive me nashville".

[x togepi x]

uh...they are one of those fashion-core bands, or at least started out like that.

[Troggy]

The production on the first album was cool. That's all the nice things I can think of.

That's the best thing I have to say about them as well. I have the first record and I don't think I would come back to it except that it is nice to hear a metalcore album once in a while that isn't all polished and cutesy.

[Chris Fallon]

First album is terrific. I don't have any specific problem with The Fiancee, but it's just not the same.

[Danny Schme]

same as everyone else: first album was pretty legit.

Is their new lineup as fun to watch live as the original crew?

[hailthewarrior]

same as everyone else: first album was pretty legit.

Is their new lineup as fun to watch live as the original crew?

Yes. I've seen both, haha, so it's not Youtube based.

[Danny Schme]

I just YouTube-d a set with the new crew. they're still peppy. Scogin got fatter in the same tiny clothes.

[Czarsy]

What an awful band hahaha

[Klatzke]

this band fucking sucks. they used to have a good live show though, but now they fucking suck.

though even when they had a good live show, they still wrote bad music.
Thank you. I entirely agree.

[DaveZeroZero]

I find that you can't beat a bit of the Chariot when you're in the mood.

[Kerplunk_23]

I like the chariot,their pretty unique in my opinion and I love all their stuff.

[Mskillet90]

They're alright. I like 'em.

[YouthMovement]

i saw them open up for POD (slap me, please) a year or two back and they pretty much summed up what i hate about music. they seem pretty generic at what they do, but then again i am the biggest fan of generic pop-punk out there lol so dont listen to me.

one of the funniest things ever happened there though, the guitarist pulled his shirt over his face, started jumping around, and ran right into an awkwardly placed speaker on stage. i loled for a long time.

[MyNameIsRoss]

They are christians, and Fat I guess, haha

[ShimmerAndSpill]

I could only really get into the ep.

[Chris Fallon]

They are christians, and Fat I guess, haha
Hmm, okay. Well, I'll never listen to them again now, OMG

[handlikesecret]

i feel the need to listen to Everything Is Alive... now.

[micahistheballs]

I swear, I'm the only person who prefers the Fiancee.

[Mskillet90]

Hmm, okay. Well, I'll never listen to them again now, OMG

I know, right? Personally, I didn't know that they had gained weight; they've obviously done it over time. But I guess that's what going on tour, eating lots of junk food and not working out does...not surprising.

[MyNameIsRoss]

Hmm, okay. Well, I'll never listen to them again now, OMG

I was kidding, man. Someone said "prepare for the fat and christian jokes", or something along those lines.

[DaveZeroZero]

I swear, I'm the only person who prefers the Fiancee.

Well, I'm yet to hear their other stuff, so I prefer the Fiancée haha.

[Chris Fallon]

I was kidding, man. Someone said "prepare for the fat and christian jokes", or something along those lines.
Oh sorry - must have missed that haha

[Circa1628]

I swear, I'm the only person who prefers the Fiancee.

I do, you are not alone. I have been listening to these guys a lot lately

[ohheroine]

They are just under mewithoutYou on my list of most wanted to see live bands haha.


i saw the chariot with mewithoutyou in 2005. :)

[Circa1628]

i saw the chariot with mewithoutyou in 2005. :)

that was probably a sweet show. Very different bands.

[ohheroine]

that was probably a sweet show. Very different bands.


yeah. underoath and as cities burn were also there. long night.

[micahistheballs]

the Chariot is literally the only heavy band I give a shit about any more.

[Circa1628]

the Chariot is literally the only heavy band I give a shit about any more.

their music is addicting

[Klatzke]

I don't see why. What's so special about them? Not knocking your taste I've just never understood what's so special about them.

[DaveZeroZero]

I don't see why. What's so special about them? Not knocking your taste I've just never understood what's so special about them.
PLAGUE! BLACK PLAGUE!

That about sums it up.

[Klatzke]

PLAGUE! BLACK PLAGUE!

That about sums it up.
Absolutely no clue what you're talking about.


I've just always thought of them as just another generic metalcore band. I've got friends that are somewhat obsessed with them, and I've listened and never been able to hear anything special.

[DaveZeroZero]

Oh, that's just one of the only lyrics of theirs that I an recall haha.

[Colorblind!]

The fiancee is kind of bad ass

[micahistheballs]

I don't see why. What's so special about them? Not knocking your taste I've just never understood what's so special about them.
First off, have you ever seen them live? If so, you should already understand.
Basically though, I just haven't quit caring about them like every other band. That's about it.

[Colorblind!]

I have never liked PTW

[Klatzke]

Ohh. And yeah, I caught a few minutes of their set at Ichtus one year, but I didn't pay much attention since I don't really like them.

[Klatzke]

I have never liked PTW
Heard Versions? Badass album. Takes a while to get into, but once I did..

[so typical]

i love me some chariot!

[ThisIsNotDan]

I think Versions is, and it's probably my favorite heavier album anymore. I listen to it weekly still.

I just may look into it!

You should.

Thats me!
I've kinda grown out of them though..

haha I've noticed. I listened to Norma Jean last night! Crazy stuff.

[Regards]

yeah. underoath and as cities burn were also there. long night.
Take out UnderOath and would probably be my dream show.

[bard]

any news on their new album?

[kemichels]

The Chariot, Underoath, and As Cities Burn would be quite a tour.

[bard]

i didn't really like The Fiancee that much though. it was okay.

i hope the new one is more like Unsung. or even Everything......

either way, i want to see them live again. there's nothing like the guitarist hanging from the rafters in front of you, only to see his guitar rapidly swinging toward you and smashing you in the forehead.

lol, had a headache that night. got a free shirt out it though

[Irena25']

I quite enjoy a it of this band havnt listened to much of them.

:D

[Circa1628]

can't wait for a new album

[xJesusFreakx]

mewithoutYou is ten times a better band, but i had tons more fun during the chariot. but i also saw mewithoutYou at a brand new crowd, which is why i may change that when i see them headline in two days.

They weren't quite at 100% on that tour. Not bad, but not as good as a headlining show, or even a show with second billing. I saw them at Purple Door in 2006, and that was one of the best experiences of my life, ever. If you think the Chariot is a better live band, you need to see mewithoutYou again.

On topic, I love the Chariot. Every release of theirs is so good. More appropriately, though, I love Josh Scogin. Amazing vocalist, and (sometimes) rather good lyrics. The Chariot, old Norma Jean, and A Rose By Any Other Name are all sweet. I'm definitely pumped for the new CD.

[viva la cymche!]

This band is stupid.

[identitycrisis2]

Dude sounds genuinely pissed off. And I think the bass player was KC Wolf, mascot for the Kansas City Chiefs.

That's all the praise I can muster.

[drudo182]

New video looks so sweet. Can't wait to see the full version.

[batmannj]

Yeah I am so stoked for Wars and the Rumors of Wars. May 5 is going to be a good day.

[bard]

what a great album title

[drudo182]

You will be hearing of wars and rumors of wars. Don't be alarmed. These things must happen, but they don't mean that the end has come.

[batmannj]

I wanna try the hot sauce and see if it is any good.

[drudo182]

I think I'll just pre-order the CD because it's twenty five for just the album and the hot sauce. Seems nuts to me.

[batmannj]

Yeah that is my problem with it. I just wanna try the hot sauce though lol, but not for another 15 bucks.

I also wanna go pre-order that As Cities Burn package with the T-Shirt, it looks really legit.

[drudo182]

Have you ever pre-ordered from Zambooie? Just wondering if I'll get it on time.

I don't think I'll pre-order ACB. Hopefully I can find it in stores. I found Come Now Sleep when that was released and my CD Werehouse usually has most things I can't find at Best Buy.

[Klatzke]

I think I'll just pre-order the CD because it's twenty five for just the album and the hot sauce. Seems nuts to me.

Isn't it a limited edition version of the album or something? I know it's hand-signed at least.

Yeah that is my problem with it. I just wanna try the hot sauce though lol, but not for another 15 bucks.

I also wanna go pre-order that As Cities Burn package with the T-Shirt, it looks really legit.

You should be fine with Zambooie. I'm probably not going to pre-order ACB either, that's one I'll have to listen to before I commit.


On another note, the only albums I've pre-ordered so far this year are Cursive, Manchester Orchestra, and here soon, the Oceana hoodie + cd deal.

[DaveZeroZero]

What's all of this talk about hot sauce?

[drudo182]

K. I'll probably pre-order it because it's signed and hand numbered. The red stamp version is already sold out but I guess they should still be signed and stuff. Seems like it said they signed like 25,000 or something.

What's all of this talk about hot sauce?

They have a hot sauce you can get if you pre-order the album/hot sauce bundle. Hot and Rumors of Hot: The Hot Sauce.

[drudo182]

Here is that ACB shirt pre-order too.

You can probably get ACB at your local best buy, I got Come Now, Sleep from there. I also got Son, I Loved You... from my local Christian bookstore for like $6, which was a steal haha.

I have never ordered from Zambooie, but I have a friend who orders there frequently and he always gets his stuff on time. The one problem is that for me, S&H is ridiculous, but I am not sure how it would be to ship it to where you are.
Where's that at?
http://www.toothandnail.com/news/2282/PreOrder_Options_For_As_Cities_Burn s_Hell_Or_High_Water/

That one is through Tooth & Nail at Zambooie for $23. I really like that shirt. There is one at smartpunk too, but the shirt looks terrible compared to this one.
What's all of this talk about hot sauce?
As a pre-order deal, they are offering a hot sauce called "Hot and the Rumours of Hot" (lol) to go with the hand stamped and signed album.

[Klatzke]

K. I'll probably pre-order it because it's signed and hand numbered. The red stamp version is already sold out but I guess they should still be signed and stuff. Seems like it said they signed like 25,000 or something.

Yeah, I ordered from Zambooie on one pre-order bundle and I believe it was there either the day before or day of. And yeah, imagine signing that many albums. haha.

Here is that ACB shirt pre-order too.

http://www.toothandnail.com/news/2282/PreOrder_Options_For_As_Cities_Burn s_Hell_Or_High_Water/

thanks

EDIT: Wow, both of those shirts are ugly as hell.

[drudo182]

Shipping from Zambooie is only 14.97. Not bad I guess for it to be signed and stamped.

[batmannj]

Yeah, I ordered from Zambooie on one pre-order bundle and I believe it was there either the day before or day of. And yeah, imagine signing that many albums. haha.



thanks

EDIT: Wow, both of those shirts are ugly as hell.
I like the T&N one a lot better. The other one just has that lame lonely skull haha.
Shipping from Zambooie is only 14.97. Not bad I guess for it to be signed and stamped.
Yeah thats not terrible. I remember I wanted to get a Zao hoodie on there once and the shipping was more than the hoodie itself.

[DaveZeroZero]

They have a hot sauce you can get if you pre-order the album/hot sauce bundle. Hot and Rumors of Hot: The Hot Sauce.
As far as gimmicks go, that's got to be one of the weirdest I've heard of haha.

That's straight-up weird.

[batmannj]

That's straight-up weird.
Yeah it is, but I am so stoked for their new stuff. I love what Scogin does with them.

[Klatzke]

I like the T&N one a lot better. The other one just has that lame lonely skull haha.

Yeah thats not terrible. I remember I wanted to get a Zao hoodie on there once and the shipping was more than the hoodie itself.
They're both hideous. lol. I won't order a shirt I won't wear.

[DaveZeroZero]

Yeah it is, but I am so stoked for their new stuff. I love what Scogin does with them.
Yeah, they're an awesome band. They've got some fucked-up ideas, though haha.

[batmannj]

They're both hideous. lol. I won't order a shirt I won't wear.
Good point. I probably won't do it because of the cost either. $23 is a little steep for a CD/T-Shirt deal when I can do a Zao pre-order with a better shirt for $15.

[Klatzke]

Good point. I probably won't do it because of the cost either. $23 is a little steep for a CD/T-Shirt deal when I can do a Zao pre-order with a better shirt for $15.
Ah, i see. Yeah, I stick to stuff i know I'm going to dig like that Oceana hoodie/Cursive LP.

[batmannj]

Yeah, they're an awesome band. They've got some fucked-up ideas, though haha.
True that. Did you ever see this music video?

9T5NhsZXXeY

[drudo182]

Didn't Norma Jean do this with BBQ sauce?

[batmannj]

Ah, i see. Yeah, I stick to stuff i know I'm going to dig like that Oceana hoodie/Cursive LP.
Same here. The one pre-order I regret is when I did the Agraceful album with the hoodie. The hoodie was pretty awesome, but it shrunk so easily. I ordered it as a large, but now it barely even fits me it got so small lol.

[Klatzke]

Didn't Norma Jean do this with BBQ sauce?
if so, lol

[batmannj]

Didn't Norma Jean do this with BBQ sauce?
I could totally see them doing that. I know that they all got BBQ tattooed on their inside lip.

[drudo182]

I think I remember now. It was O' God, The BBQ Sauce.

Here is a link I just found. Really old.

Wow, that's ridiculous. I almost did that one because that hoodie was f'in sweet. I remember it. I didn't even like that album all that much, haa.

And yeah, I'm definitely doing the Oceana one. I usually wear a medium so I'm afraid to get bigger though. Idc if it gets a little small.

Yeah the Oceana hoodie is all kinds of win. Plus the music is legit haha.

True that. Did you ever see this music video?

9T5NhsZXXeY
haha, nope. Oh, those guys :-)

[Klatzke]

Yeah the Oceana hoodie is all kinds of win. Plus the music is legit haha.

Hopefully it is.. looks promising.

And that hoodie is definitely tight. Plus I don't have a white zip-up -- win win!

[batmannj]

haha, nope. Oh, those guys :-)
lol yeah. The bulletins they send on MySpace get pretty funny sometimes too

[batmannj]

Hopefully it is.. looks promising.

And that hoodie is definitely tight. Plus I don't have a white zip-up -- win win!
Thats awesome :-)

I'm glad that they finally put it up after looking at the ad on AP here for like two weeks before it gets officially announced lol

[Klatzke]

Evolve. (myspace.) p.s. im excited because i believe i may have been the first person to hear it at 0 plays.

[DaveZeroZero]

How was it? Myspace is making my computer crash at the moment.

[Regards]

New song is suprisingly good.

[drudo182]

Picked it up today. I love how all the covers are different. The one I picked is pretty white and faded. One I found was so faded, you couldn't even read the title of the album. Then some were really dark on the font. Cool stuff. #4401 of 25,0000.

[Regards]

Right on! I'm getting my copy on Thursday. Nice avatar by the way.

Oh, no. I would've gotten it already if I had sent it to my box here at school, but because it was during finals week, I just sent it on home... I'll get it tomorrow.

[drudo182]

Ohhh, makes sense. Sweet.

[Regards]

Maybe? I don't remember, lol.
You'll have to let us know if you did and if its good or not. I was tempted to cash in on that but I didn't have the money to do so.

[ShimmerAndSpill]

I listened to a couple of songs from the new album, and was overall unimpressed, probably need to listen to it a few more times. Music video for Daggers is pretty cool though.

[drudo182]

Kind of small but here is my cover. The end of the Chariot is pretty much faded out and stuff. Looks sweet. Wish more bands did stuff like this. One of the reasons why I love collecting CDs.

I'd say the new album is on par with their previous two. Really dig it.

[karadotcollett]

i cannot wait for Long Live to drop.

[xJesusFreakx]

What's the status on the new album? Still writing, still recording, or what? Any new songs or other worthwhile updates? Has the line-up completely changed yet again?

i think they're done recording. i have no idea about the line up.

[xJesusFreakx]

i think they're done recording. i have no idea about the line up.

I'd be impressed if they actually retained more than 50% of their line-up between albums. Between The Chariot's constantly revolving door and the way he randomly stepped down from Norma Jean, I sometimes wonder if Josh Scogin is a douche or generally hard to deal with.

[theChariotAshes]

I hear Jon Terrey is back in the band (from The Fiancée), and Rux is gone, so right now it's Josh Scogin, Wolf (now the second longest surviving member), Stevis (was added around a year ago, I believe), Jon Terry, and David Kennedy.

I just hear there were lots of personal reasons for people leaving. I read in a comment from a The Chariot news article a while ago all the reasons why people left, can't remember much though, ha.

[weplayendlessly]

I excited. That is all. Subscribed. :-)

[circasuicide]

absolutely the most insane band live.

[_><_]

Can't wait for Long Live.

[COREhorizon]

Long Live has leaked. Most insane Chariot album yet, holy shit.

[xJesusFreakx]

Just finished downloading. I have class shortly, so won't be able to give it a real listen until later.

thanks, man. the chariot, thanksgiving, and my birthday(nov. 26th). nice.

[x1wingdangel]

Just got Long Live definitely some of the best stuff The Chariot has done. love this band.

[karadotcollett]

everyone, make sure to rate on RYM. why? so people will want to buy it.

[xJesusFreakx]

I'm halfway through and definitely digging this. Not sure yet how much lasting value it'll have, seeing as both previous albums got old too quickly. Might be my favorite since Everything is Alive, though.

[COREhorizon]

where can i get it?

Just go to google and type 'the chariot long live mediafire' and there's a link to download

but buy it if you really like it

[circasuicide]

can't bring myself to listen to it. i feel so bad that it leaked.

[anthonydarko]

New record rules.

[Derka Derka]

They just keep on getting better and better

[TheZeroKid]

David De La Hoz is such an awesome fucking song.

[aradiantsunrise]

New album is so good. David music video is cool as hell.

[RockTheWalls]

Going to be interviewing Josh Scogin on my radioshow tuesday night.

[Simulcast]

David De La Hoz is such an awesome fucking song.

I love the video version of the song too. The ending is so heavy.

[loch59]

So the chariot or norma jean?

[icynova]

Going on tour with Silverstein and Pierce The Veil just seems so random, but at least a lot of people will ger to see their awesome live show that wouldn't have otherwise.

[awakeohsleeper]

Can't wait to actually here this record.

[icynova]

My preorder came in, along with a surprise lith, numbered "34/500" :-d Awesome.

Does anyone know if Long Live was/is going to be reviewed by a staff member?

[InExile]

They probably went a lil overboard on all the distortion, but its solid record. I hope for a more progressive style next album, like on the song David, which made me preorder this.

[xJesusFreakx]

"Long Live" by Taylor Swift > Long Live by The Chariot. Just sayin'.

Like I said earlier in this thread, this is probably the best thing they've done since Everything is Alive.

If it does get reviewed I think Drew B would do it.

New album got me to start listening to them again.

Both artists sound exactly the same in my ears.

[icynova]

I hope he does. I'm enjoying it a lot.

[iam_theculprit]

The David De La Hoz video is incredible (it also got me very interested in hearing more of Listener). I can't wait to get Long Live. I hope a review pops up around here soon.

[justintime016]

i love this band..

[Regards]

For what its worth, Dan Smith (Vocals of Listener) didn't really think what he did with Chariot was even good. Compared to the rest of his stuff I agree.

Did he write it? Interesting that he didn't think it was very good. Some wouldn't bother if it didn't match their ability.

I got Wooden Heart by the way. I have to be in the right mood but when I am I love it!

Yeah. He wrote it on the plane ride over to jam with them quickly, said he didn't like it but performed it for them anyways and I guess Josh and the guys loved it lol.

[incognitojones]

Amazing album, really want to get a physical copy.

[iam_theculprit]

Wow. That's kind of surprising. I thought it was pretty good. Then again, I haven't heard much of his stuff outside of the few songs I listened to after seeing the video.

[awakeohsleeper]

My preorder still hasn't arrived. We've got quite a lot of snow in the UK so I'm guessing the postal service is not working that efficiently. So I have no idea when I'll get to hear this.

[icynova]

Interesting... Well it's definitely got him some new fans on this site, so maybe those verses have more of an appeal than he realizes? :)

Did he say anything else about his session recording with the Chariot, or the music video shoot?

[thesollopsist]

I can't stop listening to this

[drudo182]

Why didn't we ever get an AP review for this?

[icynova]

Dunno. There was a reader review, but nothing official.

[drudo182]

Beringer needs to get on that just cause I dig his stuff.

[icynova]

That would be tops, and I really think this cd deserves it, but we'll see if it happens.

[awakeohsleeper]

On the package of my CD was a label that says "Scan this image with a QR reader app for bonus content". I don't have a QR Reader app. Anyone know whats this bonus content is?

I would also like to know if someone has checked it out.

I actually just got my girlfriend's brother to do it on his Droid and all it did was send me to a Youtube video for Long Live. I'm sure you can find it on The Chariot's YouTube channel. I know I'd seen it before. Kind of disappointing (not the video, just that that was the bonus content).

[JacobTCB]

i LOVE this bands live show. and videos. and everything about them pretty much. but i can very rarely just listen to the cd's

[thesollopsist]

This album still rules.

[Exile_Redeemed]

One of the best bands in ANY genre. They're not trying to fit in, not being differant just because it's "cool", and not ripping off other bands wholesale. Man, The Chariot is a breath of fresh air in a genre overrun with canibalistic riff-writers.

[CellarGhosts]

Music of a Grateful Heart 7" is sweet.

[SeanCole27]

As much as I wish I could get into their music, just not for me. However, I will say that their live show is incredible.

Dan's part in that song is my favorite of what he's done but I hope more people listen to his other stuff. I think I'm gonna buy Wooden Heart at Cornerstone this summer, I've been streaming it on bandcamp. Shameless plug but you asked about what Dan has said about doing the song and video with the chariot, I interviewed him about it here (http://thegracenotes.net/2011/01/15/artist-interview-dan-smith-of-listener/)

He guest taught one of my sister's classes down in Memphis a couple months ago.

They played a house show and it was the best thing that has ever happened probably.

Do these guys ever headline tours? Specifically in the US?

This was so awesome. I saw them at the Sydney and Orange stops of this tour. The Orange stop was particularly awesome cause they played in a tiny little hall on the floor. It's pretty intense having Wolf right up in your face screaming haha. Got to meet them all except David. Nicest dudes, especially Wolf and Stephen. I was talking to Josh about the pear incident and he said that was literally all it was, just the bowl of free pears breaking. He said they offered to pay for the broken bowl, but the owner still shut them down. Dude must have been a real ass.

[phaynes1]

I need to see these guys live...

[thesollopsist]

I can't wait for new material from these guys. Their last album was so good.

[xsinkshipsx]

to even mention them in the same sentence is blasphemy.

I love converge and the chariot...but come on. Converge are pioneers.

[ACA]

Just discovering The Chariot now.

What are some of their past tours?

[Derka Derka]

-aca

[Regards]

I'm in a big Chariot mood.
