~NOiSE~ Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 Post-hardcore/indie band best known for Aaron Weiss' spoken-word vocal performances, and just great music overall. Opinions and comments appreciated~ Also, Hayley Williams of Paramore does guest vocals for one of their songs: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNPJix7I0sw[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dgLN8TEVBUM[/media] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bury the year Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 I've listened to a few of their songs (I really love Messes of Men), but so far I haven't taken enough time to really delve into them. Didn't like how overt some of the religious themes were, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] That seems to be the point where a lot of people turn away, though I know a lot of non-religious people who love the band (as a Christian personally it doesn't bother me). There's a lot in their music that non-Christians can relate to as well though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ｍｒ．Ｒｏｂｏｔ Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 Start listening to these guys after founding out that Aaron Weiss did guess vocal on Memphis Will Be Laid to Waste. Brother, Sister probably their masterpiece for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn man, all circles was stuck in my head all day yesterday. Gonna spin this lp again just to satisfy my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
