I bought their new album, listened to it once, and now it's sitting in my CD stack...Didn't enjoy it nearly as much as Messengers.
It's not that this band is bad... It just sounds exactly like every other metalcore band I've heard. And I mean "copy/paste" exacty...
I didn't like it as much when I first listened to it, but I gave it another try and love it even more now. They definitely toned down on the breakdowns, but I can see how that's a good thing. I still think these guys are the best of their genre.I bought their new album, listened to it once, and now it's sitting in my CD stack...Didn't enjoy it nearly as much as Messengers.

[QUOTE="Guppy507"]Thats some bad luck right there:( It was indeed. I knew what to expect with it being metalcore, yet I still gave it the benefit of the doubt. :(I paused Amon Amarth for that? :(

The only song I really liked was Marianas Trench...I was anticipating this album and the new one from the band in my avatar, and both dissapointed me :P[QUOTE="CuddlesTheBunny"][QUOTE="Shrapnel99"]I didn't like it as much when I first listened to it, but I gave it another try and love it even more now.

TDWP really started going downhill with the new album. Although in their defense, Plagues was a hard album to top.[QUOTE="Guppy507"]I paused Immortal for this :(I delayed my listening of Ensiferum for this:(I paused Amon Amarth for that? :(

I love how ignorant people are, judging from one song.

How dare us form an opinon of a band after listening to a song of theirs. :x
Either they don't appreciate the vocals (which I can understand), or they are metal elitists.I love how ignorant people are, judging from one song.

It takes more than one song to actually understand a band. People have their opinions, not much can be done about it.Either they don't appreciate the vocals (which I can understand), or they are metal elitists.[QUOTE="CuddlesTheBunny"][QUOTE="Strife88"]

Still no need to be so rash about it. Sure you can voice your opinion but some people are just blatantly insulting about how their music is better.[QUOTE="Guppy507"][QUOTE="CuddlesTheBunny"]Either they don't appreciate the vocals (which I can understand), or they are metal elitists. CuddlesTheBunny

Don't know why but I can never really get into August Burns Red or the Devil Wears Prada. Personally I prefer Haste the Day, As I lay Dying or even Zao more. Not saying the former to are bad bands... just I find I'd rather listen to something else.

So? That doesn't count as an excuse.AWESOME d00d!! I wish I saw them live. I don't even know when they're coming here. I think they already did... -.- Well, at least there's always another chance to see them live :DI love that band! I saw them about 2 months ago. They came to my town. 8)
