Anybody like them? heard of them? seen them live? got the cd? anything?

i've seen them here in raleigh a few times and they put on a pretty good show. i dig them. Joie got me the cd yesterday and it's pretty decent. anyone else a fan?

You just made this thread so you could mention you know Joie.



Certainly not because they are actually a good band.

2/15/2008 7:18:09 PM

sure i did.

2/15/2008 7:21:35 PM

If they got haircuts and changed their name, i would consider them.


I still probably wouldn't like them.

2/15/2008 7:27:27 PM

yum

2/15/2008 7:34:33 PM

^^
no i don't.


i've seen them twice was fun live.

would not sit down and listen to them sober at least.

2/15/2008 9:12:49 PM

fair enough.

they do put on a good show live though. i'm always amused. i plan to see them again in march when they hit up the brewery.

2/15/2008 9:50:15 PM

I've listened to them, they're alright.

2/15/2008 9:55:54 PM

^ seen them live?

2/15/2008 10:09:16 PM

sound a lot like the Foo Fighters to me

2/15/2008 10:19:44 PM

foo fighters, eh? how so?

2/15/2008 10:20:58 PM

they produce a sound

my ear picks up the sound

it registers in my brain as sounding like the Foo Fighters





although to be fair, that was only on the first song that popped up... the others ones not quite as much, but I still hear it. One song reminds me of Helmet haha.


god I fucking loved Helmet back in the day, still the most bass I have ever heard in my life

2/15/2008 10:23:21 PM

helmet is the shit! didn't like them on first listen. a couple months after picking up a cd i was enjoying the shit out of ti.

2/15/2008 10:39:45 PM

^ then listen to Sleep - Dopesmoker, or High on Fire, either way Matt Pike rocks in the bassy ballsy guitar.

2/15/2008 10:40:28 PM

i like high on fire.

and the s word

2/15/2008 10:41:24 PM

went to see them back in HS, like 94ish I think, walked in, bass hit me in the chest like woah

2/15/2008 10:42:22 PM

The swords first cd was pretty killer, not happy with their second release.


and Kyuss, is sick.

shitty youtube quality but check out Kyuss - Welcome to Sky Valley.


Yeah Sky Valley was 1994.

^ listened to your other suggestions and was quite pleased.

thx

2/15/2008 11:08:48 PM

awesome, good to hear!

2/15/2008 11:22:00 PM

funny that you should make this thread. they got signed to ferret music this past week. before that theyve been on the same label as us

known the guys since HS tho when they were called "The Residence"

2/16/2008 1:10:34 AM

interesting. i did not know this.

weren't they on tragic hero before? ferret will be awesome for them. i love me some ferret bands.

2/16/2008 10:33:21 AM

yep they were on tragic before this. the singer, adam, is a really nice guy. i dont know the other guys in the band as well anymore since theyve changed members a lot from the very beginning.

2/16/2008 11:16:57 AM

I am from Wilmington and I have never seen them play, them or ASG

2/16/2008 11:17:44 AM

i am not from wilmington and i watched these guys open for ASG

i guess they were alright but weren't very memorable given it was years ago

2/16/2008 12:12:38 PM

i've enjoyed them everytime i've seen them. thought they put on a good show. which in turn makes me think higher of their music.

a good live show is a great start in my opinion.

anyway, i like a few wilmington bands. he is legend and these guys. don't really know who else is from there though.

2/16/2008 11:45:49 PM

random bump because i'm listening to them now.

Alternative Press voted them one of the top 100 bands you need to know

AP 237.2 APR 08

3/18/2008 3:04:38 PM

sure, that CD is about my car.

cuz its






































THE HOTTNESS. NAH'MEAN?

3/18/2008 3:47:09 PM

Good band from my hometown. I went to high school with most of them and they are the shit. A few used to play in a band called ALK which is another dope band (which if anyone on this thread has heard of them, where is the reunion show that was promised!!!!!) Still waiting for that. But The Hotness put on a good live show and always have a lot of energy, can't go wrong.

ASG, The Hotness, He is Legend...all good ass bands from Wilmington

3/19/2008 8:25:15 AM

Im still waiting for a "the residence" reunion from them

3/19/2008 8:49:34 AM

bump
