V or 5

[scanner313]

I was just wondering about something. When you guys talk about "V - The New Mythology Suite", do you refer to it as "V" (pronounced "vee") or as "5"?

I always call it "V" just out of habit. I don't know why as it's not V, it's the roman numeral for 5. Just wondering if anyone else does this besides me.

I call it "The Yellow Album".

I call it "The Yellow Album".

I love your signature! What an "assclown" that guy was! Too funny!

 

[The Yngster]

Its 5, but I still have the habit of calling it v

Hahaha! He was a class act...

Yeah, i go 5... mainly due to the various references to the number 5 in the album.

 

[SilentRealm]

it is??? lol!! i always thought it was "V" not roman numerals v .. hmm..go figure

 

[Mr. Shred-ididle]

I think it symbolises 5, but pronounced "V"

 

[Demonspell]

Five, because they don't say "vee will be as one"...

 

[The Yngster]

The guys have said themselves its Five

 

[Avathar]

-v-

You mean the album isn't about a bad TV mini series that was on so long ago?!!!

I've been wrong this whole time!

 

[theodyssey]

yeah, i may have been the only one, but when i first got into symphony x i wasn't sure if it was symphony "ex" or symphony "ten"... and the whole thing with V being my first album and it being a roman numeral didn't help the confusion... but i always said "ex" because it was easier.

 

[yeet_SAY_jama]

I always say "The new mythology suite"

 

[SilentRealm]

Well duh me.. i had noticed all the "5" references in the album..(which..i bought today btw so yay! me..my 2nd actually paid for SyX album)..but never put two and two together..

It's their 5th album and I think to remember to have read somewhere that the band wanted to call it "5" but then choose to add "The New Mytholgy Suite" to have a better title.

Controversial stuff, I can feel the tension

We should split the forum into two camps, those that call it 5 and the others that call it V, this is one way to end the years of bitterness and hatred :Spin:

In Japan it's known as "Go"

This is interesting. I figured everyone knew the album was "5", but I guess I was wrong. I was really just wondering how many people got in the habit of calling it "V" as I did.

 

[The Yngster]

I tried to start calling it 5 but it wasn't happening. I think "V" is cooler than 5 anyway
