these guys.

They have some great stuff...but this new CD blows horribly. Their previous CD was amazing, everything was a hit in my opinion...this one I am not going to listen to, oh well.

Anyone else feel the same way?

I have Danse Macabre and Wet From Birth which are both pretty good. Didn't know they were still around.

Did they change their style again?

Yeah....if I remember Media was VERY different too...now this one is very different. I prefer Danse Macabre and Wet From Birth.

Dudes put on a helluva a show though.

Well maybe I'll check out the samples later to at least see which direction they've headed now.

Never had the opportunity to see them live unfortunately.

Yeah, I know, it just seems that the local bands I don't like are the ones that draw all the popularity... pretty much the whole of Saddle Creek, really. And The Venaculas.

Blank-Wave Arcade was my favorite. Everything after Danse Macabre has kind of sucked.

Dude are you kidding? Fasciination is freaking awesome! I've been listening to it nonstop since I got it. I love how they can pull off different stuff. Although Media, no I wont listen to it but the rest ugh they are so great. I'm creaming my jeans jsut thinking about it.

I have not heard of those other bands...haha so they must be pretty small.

The Show is the Rainbow does a lot of touring, even as far as Europe, and got a decent reception at SXSW. It's generally just the one guy with a laptop and projector, you could almost picture him as an ATOTer :p
Anchondo should be huge, they're a great rock band.

It does seem a little bit too experimental reminds me of Adam and his Package, but it's not so bad that I can't listen to it and love it.
