Man, is that release good. I love the production on it, after kinda not-liking the muddy-sounds on DOTM (not that I don't like that music, just the production on it).

This new Emmure joint is the most Korn influenced thing. Jesus. They even jacked the floppy bass string sound, lmao. The intro track is the best thing on it, Shooga wasn't kidding.

Speaker of the Dead is still my favorite of theirs, that poo poo is a banger. Goodbye to the Gallows closely behind it. Slave to the Game had some awesome tracks but wasn't great, same with Respect Issue. Felony is just terrible.

Now back to listening to TAS Above/Below and hoping they set a date for their new poo poo soon.

Ironically, Speaker is my least favorite from them and Felony is my favorite, with Respect issue second.

So apparently ya boy right here Chad Ruhlig has been back in For the Fallen Dreams for a while now and his presence has caused them to stop being lovely and go back to sounding good (i.e. how they sounded when he was in the band originally). Check it out,,,

Reformed means "we'll see how it goes" so nothing concrete yet

Emerald Blue is easily the best track on the new For The Fallen Dreams joint. Still a fun record, Chad Ruhlig's vocals rule and I like how FTFD is now basically Legend with some melodies. Can't wait for the DL-ified Legend however. That is going to simply crush.

They're like a much weirder Italian version of Protest the Hero maybe? Definitely got the super-technical "I don't know what I'm hearing but it's pretty drat good" thing going on. And somehow they only have like 6k listeners on Last.fm, what the hell.

Off the back of this I bought their album and I have not stopped listening to it, thank you. I agree with the PTH comparison.

New FTFD has grown on me a ton and it's making me think of if Bury Your Dead hadn't become simply awful after Cover Your Tracks. "Emerald Blue" "Choke" "Bombay" and "Mimic" are all full out bangers.

On the flipside, I just realized that Waking the Cadaver have an album that came out last year. I know they're not "good" but it's just so ignorantly slam-heavy that I can't help but love it.

I will check out the Whitechapel record but I expect it to suck. They were better when they were honest about being a chuggy deathcore band with no riffs. Lately they're trying to be Lamb of God.

First (real) song is the best one on the album, and "Blacked Out" is pretty sweet too. Otherwise, meh.

Seems like they've lost the "groove" part of their sound, so now they're just slow and boring instead of slow and cool like on their last album (which was good).

This is pretty drat good. Happy that they're making music again, especially since I discovered them so late (they were pretty much on hiatus by that time).

Cool that they got their original singer back, though I don't think the guy that was on Lividity was bad.

As someone who was listening to them when they only had a three song demo, I never listened to anything after Caitiff Choir. For me this is like they're picking up right where they left off.

Jason Wood was okay in a live setting but I couldn't get behind Lividity in the slightest, but at the end of the day Nicholas Brooks is what's up when it comes to some IDT goodness.

Pretty excited that they're back and I hope to see them perform live again sometime soon. But nothing will surpass the sweet rear end basement show I saw them play with God Forbid in Fresno so, so many years ago.

I remember being at Warped Tour a few years ago and finding out that IDT was playing and I kind of just checked them out due to curiosity because I was already over them without Brooks. The second singer was decent live, as you mentioned, I just remember never being able to get into anything they put out after CC

Check out their debut full length album Caitiff Choir. At the time it came out I was already listening to them for about two years or so and at first I was kind of upset that it was so melodic compared to their EP Forever Scorned (which you should also check out) but as time went on, and especially now all these years later, it really is a great loving album.

Oh god man yes. This sounds like 2004 IDT. This is where they should have picked up after Caitiff Choir. gently caress I am stoked on this new record!

I seen these motherfuckers in CBGB with The Acacia Strain and that venue was far too small to be safe for those bands. Good times.

That was a wild show brother. If I recall Anterrabae and Winter Solstice were supporting and Trivium headlined. I didn't mind Trivium at that point in time.

I might have shows mixed up then. I've definitely seen The Acacia Strain a number of times at CBGB's. I remember seeing It Dies Today there the weekend before they played Hellfest '04 in Jersey. I don't think I've seen Anterrabae outside of The Downtown in Long Island. Speaking of which, are you going to that reunion show?

e: I've always hated Trivium. Just needed to point that out.

I didn't even know that was a thing. I've been to the Downtown a few times though, from memory it was something like: God Forbid + Shadows Fall (owned), All That Remains (they owned when I saw them since it was around or just before Fall of Ideals), and AILD + Throwdown which was just ok really. I think I'm on a live Shadows Fall DVD shot at that show in some capacity.

I was totally at that god forbid/shadows fall show at the downtown. I also have super awesome memories of seeing Jerry Only/Marky Ramone Misfits there a bunch of times. God I wish that place still existed.

I thought it was a bit strange as a debut track since it's really short and it's track 8 on the album. However, it is good and an ETID album produced by Kurt Ballou is a dream come true. Hype.

Hey y'all, don't know if it's kosher to post shameless plugs here or not (if it isn't sorry I'll take this down), but me and fellow goon SeraphSlaughter recently finished putting out a deathcore album we've been working on for about a year and a half now. If you guys like Through the Eyes of the Dead at all, it's basically something along those lines!

So I'm going to be doing a phone interview with Vincent Bennett of TAS on Sunday. I figured I would see if there was anything anyone would like me to ask? (Serious only plz)

I can't promise that I'll be able to squeeze anything in but if it's something good I'll definitely do what I can.
