[fadedmemories]

About time there was a thread about this band. I can't stop listening to "You Might As Well Be In Space"

[Heart-A-Tact]

Eh.

[Carlo Marx]

waaaaay too much autotune.

[fadedmemories]

waaaaay too much autotune.
Wrong band.

lol yeah I was about to say, I never head the auto-tune in their music. I love this band, great music.

[Keagan Ilvonen]

Great band.

[kevinrocks409]

I listened to them after praise from here and a few friends and I thought they sounded like another shitty all time low-esque band.

[fadedmemories]

TYGB and ATL are not shitty.

[more heart]

TYGB and ATL are not shitty.

Agreed

[fadedmemories]

Agreed
:beerbros:

[more heart]

Haha! I wonder when they'll release the video.

[Carlo Marx]

Wrong band.

uh.. yeah no.

if you can't hear it on "you might as well be in space" then you have no ear for music. sorry dude.

[ThisIsNotDan]

TYGB and ATL are not shitty.

eh, old ATL was pretty good but I couldn't even get through So Wrong Its Right

[more heart]

Yeah, that was one of the bettter tracks

[Nightmare7]

I like this band a lot, though the vocals do have a fair amount of auto-tune. And I do have one of their albums, Forever Comes Too Soon.

[more heart]

Where does everyone hear the auto-tune? Unless you use to sound like a robot (which TYGB don't do) you're not supposed to hear it.

[PunkDrums182]

I'm playing with this band Wednesday. .

[fadedmemories]

uh.. yeah no.

if you can't hear it on "you might as well be in space" then you have no ear for music. sorry dude.
You mean the bridge of that song? That was the only time in the ENTIRE album they used auto tune.
eh, old ATL was pretty good but I couldn't even get through So Wrong Its Right
PUOSU is still their best work.

He doesn't sound like a robot(you're talking about stuff like T-Pain, A Rocket To The Moon, etc.) but he still has obvious studio trickery done to his voice. It's kinda hard to explain.

I know what you're trying to say. I'm just not sure how you can tell that they constantly use auto-tune.

[fadedmemories]

Anyone know when will they release the video they shot for "You Might As Well Be In Space?"

[more heart]

I hope soon. I think they finished filming it the weekend of the 11th so it's got to be nearly done.

[fadedmemories]

They've made a good choice by selecting that song as a single.

[more heart]

I don't know. I like it a lot but I think Tell Someone Else or What Happens In ___ Stays In___ would be so much better

[fadedmemories]

Tell Someone Else or Follow Me Home should definitely be the next single. You Might As Well Be In Space could be their Saturday.

[more heart]

Tell Someone Else FTW!

[PunkDrums182]

I hope so
Oh okay well hope to see you there! Come say hi to me after, i'm the bassist/singer.

[Nightmare7]

I know what you're trying to say. I'm just not sure how you can tell that they constantly use auto-tune.
It's not really a big deal, I can just slightly hear it. More at some times than others. But oh well, I like the band.

[Praetor]

Yeah definitely auto-tune central on this record. But I dig it.

[Laur3l]

They're pretty good. They opened at a gk festival and nobody was really into it at all I felt bad.

[_thisisme*]

Solid band...Keep spinning their record several times a week

[fadedmemories]

New single plz.

[more heart]

I think Call It A Night puts on a really good show, they're cool guys too.

[Carlo Marx]

You mean the bridge of that song? That was the only time in the ENTIRE album they used auto tune.

you're clueless, kid. it's obvious from the first 5 seconds of vocals that the entire album is autotuned.

Rise just needs to get them on a good tour. It'll come eventually.

[braaaaaaaapp]

Thee Armada is dope. They need to get a full length out there to go with Rock Shock and Load. That song is so fun. And I really dig TYGB, but I never even listened to Forever Comes To Soon all the way through. I heavily loved their first full length though. Sever The Ties is still one of my favorite songs.

[lissalynn]

Sweet, I hadn't run across this thread before. I'll be there Wednesday as well; these guys put on such a fun show. Was anybody at the Point Pleasant show a few days ago?

Epitaph, Fearless or Equal Vision.

[more heart]

Epitaph, Fearless or Equal Vision.

Definitely not Fearless. Don't get me wrong, I like bands on Fealress (Every Avenue, Mayday Parade, Artist Vs Poet) but the majority of the bnads on that label are a joke. I really like EVR but ther are just barely bigger than Rise but, I wouldn't mind if they signed with them. Epitaph is obviously a no-brainer, Epitaph would just have show interest first.

EVR may be just slightly bigger than Rise, but take a look at their roster, worst band on EVR is way better than any band on Rise (except for TYGB). I don't get why everyone hates on Fearless, probably because most of their bands are "trendy" right now.

I'm actually like a Rise fanboy, I love that label.
As far as Fearless goes, The Maine? Alesana? A Skylit Drive? Motionless In White? All of those bands are horrible. I wouldn't mind TYGB signing with Fearless if all of those bands either beak up or move to a different label.

Still though, Fearless > FBR

I like The Maine :shrug: and Mayday Parade, and Fearless may have some crappy bands, but they would do so much for TYGB's career.

I miss old FBR. TTYG and FUCT, Almost Here, etc, they were so good. Not saying that I hate FBR now, I just like them less.

I definitely agree about FBR though I'd say I dislike them more than you do. The only good bands left on that label are Powerspace, VersaEmerge, A Rocket To the Moon, and The Friday Night Boys.

I just thought of two label possibilities: Hopeless or Triple Crown. Each have shown the capibility to take a pop punk band and make them sucessful

It could be a possibility. But Hopeless signing There For Tomorrow is unexcusable.

They're not that bad, I like them. Although, it's not the same as Fearless going out and signing A Skylit Drive and Motionless In White. That's just plain awful

Motionless in White would be great if they didn't look like a screamo version of The Misfits.

So we're in agreement that TYGB should sign with: Epitaph, EVR, Hopeless, or Triple Crown if they should ever leave Rise

I agree. I was also reading your convo, and I honestly think that Alesana is probably my biggest guilty pleasure. I also enjoy Rise's roster quite a bit.

Once and a while I'll listen to Alesana because they do have good songs, it's just that those are few and far between. I'm probobly the biggest Rise fan boy on this entire site, mostly because 85% of the users here hate that label.

I honestly hope you're joking. A Rocket to the Moon is one of the worst on the label. You're saying Panic at the Disco, Paramore, Forgive Durden, and This Providence are terrible. And Fearless is a giant pile of shit. I doubt FBR has responded to an album leak a week before it comes out as "rough mixes and not the legitimate versions." There are maybe three good bands on Fearless. FBR is mostly good. And Hopeless? All Time Low could have been on a major label months ago if it wasn't for Hopeless holding them back. And I rreally hope Triple Crown is a joke. Two words: Fight. Fair.

Woah! A Rocket To The Moon is great. I saw him live back in August and was extremely impressed. As far as the bands you mentioned, I didn't say they sucked. I only listed the bands on FBR that I like(ARTM, VE, TFNB, ect.). Witht that said, I do think Paramore, Cute is What We Aim For, Panic at the Disco suck. The whole "rough mixes" thing (to my knowledge) has only been used by Victory and no one else. Concerning Hopeless, it was still ATL's decision to stay. Now on to triple Crown. TCR is unbelievable, they are extrtemely diverse and have awesome bands. Look at HTL and how sucessful TCR has made them. I'd also like to hear what's wrong with Fight Fair. Actually don't even bother because there is nothing wrong with them. What? You say the lyrics in "Pop Rocks" and "Brain Freeze" are bad? Read the lyrics to "Game On" and "San Diego" and still come back and tell me their lyrics suck. Besides, it's pop-punk. I'm sure you listen to bands with even worse lyrics.

Sadly, everything you just said couldn't be any more false.

The Maine has actually used the rough mixes excuse twice. http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=680912 and http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=380031. And it's more the music of Fight Fair I don't like. And yes, Hit the Lights are successful. But that makes one band. Fueled by Ramen has made many bands successful. Fall Out Boy, Yellowcard, Less Than Jake, Paramore, and Panic at the Disco all came from there.

Edit: Oh, and A Rocket to the Moon isn't the WORST on the label. Cute Is What We Aim For and Gym Class Heroes are worse.

Everything you just said went all wrong for you.

Don't say a band sucks just because you don't like their music. That's very ignoarant. You should only use that excuse if there are other problems with the band(ie: they're not talented musicians, horrible lyrics, etc.). Fight Fair is an incredible band that I enjoy listening too. As far as TCR is concerned, Fireworks is going to blow up this year. Have you also heard of The Dear Hunter, The Recieving End of Sirens, and Brand New? All of those bands are/have been on Triple Crown so I'd say they've done a great job thus far promoting their bands.

Little FYI for you: Yellowcard was never on FBR and the drumer of LTJ had previously owned and founded the label. LTJ was never on FBR. Also, Panic is on Decaydence, an imprint of FBR. They're not exactly on FBR.

Check the FBR roster. Less Than Jake was on the roster until the drummer sold his shares. And Yellowcard released The Underdog EP on FBR. And Panic is on both FBR and Decaydance.
And ok I will rephrase it. I don't like Fight Fair.

Yes. But that was after FBR released their first signs if maturity. And in my opinion the best thing they released.

I think FBR is gonna have a good year:
Cute Is What We Aim For breaks up.
After Danger Radio and A Rocket to the Moon finish touring, Brighten will sign to FBR.
NeverShoutNever! releases his album, without autotune, and signs to FBR.
This Providence releases Who Are You Know? which is a critical success.
Powerspace releases a great new album, that goes relatively unnoticed.
Paramore's new album does not match expectations, but still goes gold.
Panic at the Disco's new album is similar to Pretty. Odd. and is a success.
Cobra Starship continues to not take themselves seriously.

How is Powerspace releasing a good record that gores unnoticed good for a label? I hope that isn't true because I love Powerspace and they deserve to share some of the success from the other FBR bands which is a huge reason I hate that label. The bands that should be successful aren't.

3) A Rocket To The Moon/Brighten >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Danger Radio
4) Don't believe he uses auto-tune, at least not anyomre if he ever did
5) Your last 5 points were either irrelevant or I didn't care.

This Providence I'm probably pushing it. But do you doubt NeverShoutNever! signing to FBR? And after hearing Me & My Uke, it sounds like he's going to cut back on the auto-tune. And Cobra Starship is just Cobra Starship.

I doubt that FBR will sign NSN, they still have Friday Night Boys, A Rocket To The Moon, This Providence and VersaEmerge to promote.

I don't know. The NSN record won't come out until after the This Providence, A Rocket to the Moon, and Friday Night Boys ones do I think. They can get some good promoting done and have NSN signed by September.

Yeah I know. I just got into an argument over whether or not Fearless is better than FBR.

Still have not seen TYGB. And I live right by their hometown. One good thing about my town. That and Six Flags is good every once in a while.

[lissalynn]

They played acoustic at the show in Pughkeepsie? Guess I'm glad I didn't go now. Do you know why that was?

Their van broke down on the way, and they all had to pack into one car to make it to the venue;
they only had room for Mike and Nick's acoustic guitars. The whole show was a mess, to be honest.
The stage they were supposed to play was flooded, so they moved the show into the bar, and the
sound system was a total failure, especially for vocals.

[UnderMyDreams]

And Hopeless? All Time Low could have been on a major label months ago if it wasn't for Hopeless holding them back. And I rreally hope Triple Crown is a joke. Two words: Fight. Fair.

/rant.
1. All Time Low can choose to be on Hopeless or leave for somewhere else, most likely they like Hopeless so they continue on it.
2. So you don't like fight fair? Triple Crown is a joke?! Fireworks and Hit the Lights fucking rock.

Yes. But that was after FBR released their first signs if maturity. And in my opinion the best thing they released.

I think FBR is gonna have a good year:
Cute Is What We Aim For breaks up.
After Danger Radio and A Rocket to the Moon finish touring, Brighten will sign to FBR.
NeverShoutNever! releases his album, without autotune, and signs to FBR.
This Providence releases Who Are You Know? which is a critical success.
Powerspace releases a great new album, that goes relatively unnoticed.
Paramore's new album does not match expectations, but still goes gold.
Panic at the Disco's new album is similar to Pretty. Odd. and is a success.
Cobra Starship continues to not take themselves seriously.
1. I hope CIWWAF doesn't break up
2. Brighten definitly has a good chance. Their stuff is solid and members are touring with FBR bands.
3. NSN should not sign to FBR. He does not nearly stack up to the other artists.
4. This Providence needs this album to be big. They are a great band and really deserves this.
5. I think Powerspace will have more success here than with Kicks of Passion, but it won't sell as much as they deserve.
6. I think Paramore can match expectations of they really want it to and try hard on it.
7. I think PATD will do a mix of Fever and Pretty.Odd. At least, thats what im hoping for.
8. I have heard good things about the next Cobra record. I hear they are working on it extremely hard, and even parts of it will have a much more pop-punk feel, drawing some obvious influence from Midtown... At least that is what I heard.

With Fight Fair, I already admitted that shouldn't have been said.
1. Really? You like CIWWAF?
2. Brighten obviously.
3. NSN without auto-tune can eventually reach the level of FBR bands.
4. They deserve it.
5. Powerspace might finally get some recognition.
6. I think it'll be more like AWKIF, and Riot! fans will hate it.

And yea I like CIWWAF, it's catch so whatever lol. AWKIF was a real good album, I hope it sounds more like that than Riot! And no, Cobra doesn't take themselves seriously. I was just making a comment on what the album is going to sound like. It should be really sick based on that.

What was up with this misunderstanding?

"Our record's coming out on Hopeless. The interview at the Grammys in which I appeared to agree to Benji saying that we were making a record for Interscope was a complete misunderstanding. The red carpet was loud as shit and I only picked up on the "working on a new record," bit...

My fault for unknowingly confirming a rumor. "

Tell Someone Else or What Happens In___ Stays In___

I love that song.

[owiseone35]

I think the best single for them would be Follow Me.... I can never get that chorus outta my head. That song as a single would help them explode into more popularity.

[lissalynn]

Yeah, good call. Definitely a strong chorus. Another chorus that tends to get stuck in my head a lot is Stay Close.

My favorite song off the album is still What Happens In ___ Stays In ___, though, followed by You Might As Well Be In Space
and Tear Down The Stars.

ATTN: New video tomorrow. Premieres on Buzznet.com

Nice....

[DoctorTeeth]

I hope soon. I think they finished filming it the weekend of the 11th so it's got to be nearly done.

Actually. The rough cut of the video was done around the time frame of the 15th of January. The band had the final locked video around January 22nd and everything has been uploaded (and blocked from the public) to Youtube and Vimeo since the beginning of the month.

It sucks because we've been dying to show the fans. Though, in order to get the best premiere possible, everything had to be kept very underground. So, on behalf of the crew and the band, we do apologize for the delay... as we are just anxious to show everyone. We hope you all love it.

Hell, I don't even know if they are premiering it directly at midnight... I'm hoping they do though.. even though I have a copy on my computer.

I second that. Warped is looking a little shabby this year for the most part.

[fadedmemories]

[UnderMyDreams]

I listened to them after praise from here and a few friends and I thought they sounded like another shitty all time low-esque band.

Dude. You cant like even hear the auto tune in their songs. These guys are better than most of the bands out there.

You clearly can't hear anything.

[more heart]

Brokencyde, 3OH!3, Jeffree Star, and Millionaires sums it up prefectly. I'll still be attending though.

[lissalynn]

Yeah =/ I mean, I'm definitely going to my date. I'd enjoy seeing A Day To Remember, Every Avenue, Hit The Lights, There For Tomorrow, Runner Runner, and Valencia. But I don't even think it's worth going to more than one date, which I usually do. Disappointing.

[more heart]

Minus Runner Runner, I want to see all of those bands.

[lissalynn]

Yeah, sort of threw that one in there, haha. I've never seen them live, but I've been having mini dance parties to some of their songs for the past few days. It's just fun pop.

[cory-182]

After I heard their new song on their myspace I claimed that they would single handedly save pop punk and after listening to their album I crowned it the best pop punk album since Cartel's Chroma.

I just wish these guys would get more exposure and tour a little bit more.

[more heart]

I bet they'll be huge this year...

[lissalynn]

Ugh, so many southeast tour dates coming up and I'm not home.

And wtf at their show this Friday being at the same time as My Favorite Highway/Jet Lag Gemini/Just Surrender/Conditions/The Arrival. Not cool.

[UnderMyDreams]

I was talking to them at a show about a week ago. They have some pretty awesome tours coming up from now through summer and even in the fall it looks like.

You guys also have to remember it's hard to get real awesome tours when they are still just a small band on Rise Records. But, be patient. There's some really sick stuff.

[fadedmemories]

Single handedly? That's way too much to expect out of one band.

Well Rise has gotten ad space consistently for every release they've had since Plagues. They've been able to tour with Punchline but other than that, they've played with relatively unkown bands. The biggest tour they've ever been on was a tour where each of the other bands delved more into the metal/hardcore end of the spectrum(The Rise Record tour last fall).

and that is true... the label should try to get them with some bigger, similar-genre bands...

Well with BC(I know you kinda like Brokencyde), if they were to tour with Brokencyde and Dot Dot Curve, people would have even less respect for them. When they tour with bands like Emarosa, Sky Eats Airplane, etc., it gives them some sort of credibility.

but brokencyde is still within their niche of music...
i think the best tours for them as of yet have been their headlining tour with Every Ave, The Morning Of, and Brokencyde as support AND the Take Action Tous that just ended...
even though they have some "screaming" in their music, the whole pop-punk thing is more their niche...
credibiltiy by touring with the heavier acts does not exactly mean more fans... and only horrible fans listen to a band because of their credibilty...

Craig has given no indication that he plans to really branch the label out anymore by the bands he's signed lately. If he branches out into any genre that he hasn't already signed a ton a bands from, it'll be more like bands similar to In:Aviate and Tides of Man.

That was said well before the backlash of Breathe Carolina and W!TG. I'm not at all saying it's impossible, because it sure as hell is, I just don't beilve he will go in that direction. I hate to admit it, but those bands are extremely trendy and they'll most likely have short career. Business-wise, it's a horrible move to sign bands that may end up having little longevity.

disagree...
i think its great Rise is branching out...
and when Rise has more pop punk on there roster and get better at promoting pop punk bands...
TYGB will be one of the most venerated bands on the roster and will go down in history as Rise's first REAL pop-punk band
If and until that happens, TYGB will continue to be known as the best band on that shitfest of a label.

Ever heard of StandBy?

Ever heard of StandBy?
Will try to listen to them, but I doubt it'll change my mind about Rise. TYGB better leave this label.

It's actually a label. They have two pretty good pop punk bands and one good metalcore band on there but for the most part, the rest is shit.

Oh yeah, Dot Dot Curve is on StandBy

Whatever label they are on, they are STILL better than most of those bands out there right now. Honestly one of the best bands I have ever heard.

Oh I see. Sounds terrible. Probably tied with Rise for worst label in the "scene"

Backed, but they still need to get the hell out of that label.

As we said before, it's either TCR, Hopeless, Epitaph, or EVR(?).
