Top Albums of 2009: Part I

No, it was DMST. And it wasn't just people but someone involved with Constellation or something. Like I said, may have been he was mistaken or it got delayed or whatever.

i don't get this line of thinking at all. the first one was too immature - just fairly lame screamo with a few odd highlights. watch out was too dallas-heavy and a bit directionless. crisis was where they hit a balance between the two, and hit their stride.
Johnny C:
the first one was unflinchingly aggressive and the second one had an extremely broad sonic canvas. crisis was really restrictive and outside of the first two tracks, the title track and "boiled frogs" was really rickety songwriting and chock full of outright embarrassing things to be listening to. everything wade does on crisis is basically super similar to his side project which wasn't very good at all. on both crisis and what i've heard of the new one dallas is almost completely uninterested in what the rest of the band is doing, whereas on the first two records his vocals were complements to the others'.
i'd rather have a directionless album that is nevertheless filled with killer tunes and full of momentum - that's a record i can come back to. sorry!
