Also, is The Heartland currently selling a CD with the songs on their myspace player on it?

It's called Frontier, I'm not sure how available it is though; whether it's hard or easy to find. I'm pretty sure you can get it somewhere.

P.S. Seeing Protest the Hero again on the sixteenth. They're playing Fortress all the way through.

Dude, I saw Protest on November 20th and they played Fortress all the way through. It was the first time they ever played Bone Marrow! It was amazing, they did it all note for note, then closed with Turn Soonest to the Sea and Blindfolds Aside. Totally worth going to and I can`t wait to see them in Toronto later this month.

And to plester1, Chon has two new live songs posted on their myspace if you look at their blog entries. The quality is pretty bad and the songs don`t quite measure up in my opinion, but they are fun none the less.

I've seen them a billion times and I have never been disappointed. The second time I saw them they played Kezia all the way through which was phenomenal. I'm glad they close with two songs, because there is NO way they could choose one song from Kezia.

Props on heaviness. Other than that, (In my own personnal opinion), I find your songs a bit redundant. And, for the singer, I don't think that he's "bad" but the mixing certainly doesn't help him. He sounds like he's in another room, screaming. I don't like his voice all too much neither.

The music at the beginning had me bouncing in my seat due to its heavy groove feeling. But the singer does come off as really dry and uninspired from what I've heard so far. Kind of brings down the intensity of the music.

e: Actually, the beginning of the first track before the vocals kicked in was the only part I could actually get into. The rest of all the songs are just too slow-paced for me. Keep making music with Open Fire!

I agree, the mixing isn't great, and the technical skill of the lead singer just isn't there. I think if you were to mix it up with a new singer or maybe if he tried to change it up a bit you guys would be right on the mark.

We did the recordings for free so we weren't expecting much. First songs we've written still working everything out. We played a battle of the bands last night as a joke and ended up winning it. $1000 and 30 hours in a studio.

Miss May I and iwrestledabearonce played tonight in my city with Of Machines, Inhale Exhale and some other randoms. Everyone sucked except Miss May I and IWABO (which was surprising because Of Machines is pretty good on their albums), even though the singer for the IWABO couldn't make it because her tonsils were inflamed or something.

They let people from the audience come up and sing their songs, it was intense. I got the mic for Tastes Like Kevin Bacon, but I guess some other dude up there had called it before I went up, so I had to hand it over. I felt like an rear end, but I got to scream the breakdown at the end and then I dove into all my friends who were telling me to jump.

Minus feeling like I got punked down in front of my peers (the guy who screamed instead of me sucked), it was pretty loving sick.

Surprisingly, it worked out pretty well. The kids that got up there to sing were going in pairs and during one or two songs they either did too much or didn't do enough (they'd be screaming over one another and just going way too long or walking around doing nothing). Most people didn't even know their songs, but what they were coming up with was pretty slammin considering it was on the spot. It was interesting to see different approaches to the vocal patterns people have with the same music.

Anyone heard of Serapis? Small band from Tennessee I believe, broke up a while back after only making one CD. Was a bitch to track down but I finally was able to get it... of course they're not on youtube or anything so I don't really have a way for you guys to hear how awesome they are. I'd say they're sort of like thrash-core (even if that is like 2 suffixes). If I get bored enough I may try to make a vid for one of their songs and put it on youtube (gotta learn how to make videos though :v:)

I can't understand anything she's saying like 99% of the time anyway so I don't think it would really make much difference to have people just go up there and scream. Sounds like it was a cool show. They were really entertaining when I saw them open for August Burns Red and that was my first time hearing any of their music too.

So I've been listening to Day of Mourning by Despised Icon a lot lately. It's pretty solid for the most part. Has anyone been listening to any quality deathcore lately?

The only problem is that it's really muddy and loud and kind of hard to make out anything, but then again it's a live recording from a Dillinger show so what do you expect! Though their new album should be excellent

Blake Richardson tracking the drums to "Obfuscation". Not my favorite BTBAM song (or even new one) but this is great fun to watch. I really dig Blake's style a lot. He's more about grooves than blast-beats and double bass (though he does those awesomely too) which I like.

I think Blake might be the only one who isn't vegan/straight edge. They also talk about Dustie "breaking edge" when he was 13 (in jest, of course) but who knows?

I'm not 100% sure but I think everyone except for him is either vegan or vegetarian.

I really like the video he has on Prequel to the Sequel. That song has some sick grooves.

I guess this belongs in here as well. Post-hardcore is still hardcore.

How does everyone feel about Four Year Strong? I've been crushing their Rise Or Die Trying album the past few weeks. Probably the catchiest thing I've ever heard. Here's a couple of my favorites:

At least Winds of Plague has hints of METAL and hardCORE.

Bullet for my Valentine and Atreyu are more similar to Nickelback and Creed than any metal or hardcore bands. All That Remains is ok and Killswitch used to be awesome but have really gone downhill.

I'm a fan of a few of their songs, thanks to it being the background music on some AMV on YouTube or something. It's easy to listen to.

You guys should check out a metalcore band by the name of Alesana. They've released 2 albums so far with a 3rd coming out early next year and I have to say - It's good poo poo. Healthy balance between the girl-esque cries from Shawn Milke and the screams from Dennis.
