Anyone here listen to them? I've listened to a few samples and I'm pretty intrigued.

 

[soundave]

No, huh? Okay. I'm gonna get it anyway.

I haven't heard the full-length yet, but I own their 'Second' EP and have heard the 'First' that preceded it. Interesting stuff! I can't say I expected to enjoy a band like this at all, but their compositions are beyond the norm.

What I've listened to so far off of Red Album is pretty awesome. Brings to mind Mastodon, but way more listeanble and less wankery. Kind of stoner twinged, a bit of southern rock, some heaviness, great acoustic guitar work. So far, highly recommended!

Yep, I enjoyed it.

if dave says it, it's worth checking out i say!

I waiting for the 'RED' album to come in the post from the end....apparently its a bit different from the eps, more proggy.

Thanks, Don!

Yeah, definitely check it out. After one listen, I can't wait to listen again. I want to listen through my speakers instead of headphones this time. Can only vouch for Red Album at this point. I'll have more comments later. So far, though,

I can't believe I missed their Boston show by a few days...

For those who want to hear their stuff, check out their myspace. Yes, I'm totally gay for them right now....

A really good band and "The Red" is an excellent album. These guys have a very interesting approach to Metal. The drummer, imo, is phenominal. Dig the song "Cockroach en Fleur" a little acoustic interlude.

 

[FUBAR]

Yeh im really digging 'red'. I love the kind of their kind of ethereal southern tinged sound.

 

[Frosties]

I have to say thanks to Soundave for bringing them to my attention. I've heard their songs on myspace, and I'm definately planning on getting it my next Amazon haul.
