Circa Survive

Anyone a fan?

I tend to follow around Anthony Green through his projects for whatever reason. (Saosin, The Sound of Animals Fighting, Circa Survive, High and Driving, Zolof the Rock and Roll Destroyer)

Circa Survive is my favorite out of all these. It's hard to explain, but it's pretty different. His voice is pretty different, but still easy to listen to. I really enjoy the instrumental backing of this project, though. Neat chord progressions and time signatures.

So i ask.... anyone a fan? Which is your favorite album?

(Started this thread because i just picked up Blue Sky Noise, and it's pretty awesome)

There's a time and place for them because it's very easy to get fatigued. I still like them quite a bit.

Yeah, they can get a little depressing, and strangely, it's not even so much for the lyrics. I'm not a lyric person in the first place, i don't think i can even recite any lyrics from any of their tracks, but the backgrounds are very.... "dark" for lack of a better word.

Have you checked out the new CD? It's a bit of a departure from their previous work, especially from Juturna, but i like it. I was worried when i was reading about it that it wouldn't be "Circa Survive" anymore, but it definitely is. I'm really digging it.

I'm a Zolof fan... Does that count?

Here, check this out. This is the third track off their new CD. The more i listen to this CD, the more i realize this utterly blows their old stuff out of the water. This is a positively GREAT album.

I got the new album. It's really good (IMO) and I actually liked their Wish You Were Here cover. Nowhere near as good as the original, but I liked it. Probably because it was one of the first songs I learned to play on the guitar when I was a wee lad. :cool:

Well, i've literally listened to this a dozen times since this thread was posted. This may be my favorite album of all time.

Oh... one of the acoustic sessions... it's not on the CD, though.
