A Place to Bury Strangers

(1/4) > >>

Azathoth:
This band is super-rad.  They have amps that go to 11 and build their own effects pedals - it doesn't get much cooler than that.  If you dig echo, reverb and feedback they'll kick your ass.

+ they give away all their songs for free:

I'd recommend starting with I've Lived My Life... or Missing You.

Listen, show some love.

ps. Don't let the name fool you, this is not some shitty emo band.

Thrillho:
You had me until 'super-rad.'

valley_parade:
Super Rad was a pretty awesome Aquabats song.

Maybe I was being ironic.  I don't know who you think you are but trust me, I am at least one step ahead of you in the smartass department.  Why don't you comment on the band instead of my choice of colloquialisms (ironic or otherwise)?

onewheelwizzard:
I started out sorta liking these guys, but my opinion of them went downhill as I kept listening.  They need more solos and actual acoustic drumming.  Their songs sound more to me like pop songs that use whatever distortion they're using than original work that was built *for* their sound.  It doesn't fit.  It's just their songwriting style I don't like, though, for the most part I think I could enjoy listening to it otherwise.

To give you and idea of what direction I'd've liked them to take instead, listen to Dead Meadow or Subarachnoid Space.  Both of these bands capitalize on the tone distortion they use and generally write their songs with it in mind.  A Place To Bury Strangers, it seemed to me, just wrote songs normally and then played them with their own distorted instruments.  It didn't fit as well in my opinion.
